15 Ways To Survive Saturdays Without Penn State Football

How many Saturdays until game day? This is a question that every Penn State student has asked at one time or another. Don't worry, every Saturday is one Saturday closer to the best time of the year, football season! Until then, we will find ways to survive and distract ourselves.

Here are 15 things that will help you get through the game-less Saturdays:

1. Daylong. Daylong. Daylong.

We all know that when there are no football games to attend it's daylong season. No matter where you end up going, it's going to be one hell of a time. Just be sure you can still rally for the night to come.

2. Did you say mimosas?

Hold the OJ.


3. Endless amounts of Crown Russe and Natty.

Can't decide which one you want to force down your throat that day? You know what they say, go hard or go home.

4. The football players' return to fratland.



"Oh my god, did you hear that Saquon is here?"

5. Post-daylong Chipotle or Baby's.

Which one do you choose? This question can be hard, especially when both lines are out the door and all you want is your grease-filled food.


6. PMan.

"I want the nachos."

7. (Empty) promises to study and work out.

"I'll just do it tomorrow."

8. Binge-watching Netflix.

There's no better way to distract yourself than to watch hours and hours of your favorite Netflix show. You may tell yourself that you'll be productive after the next episode, but we all know that won't happen.


9. Sleeping the day away.

"I'll get up in an hour... or two... or three... maybe never."


10. Watching the blocked OSU kick...on repeat.

If you go to Penn State and haven't watched the video of us beating Ohio State, I have one question, "Do you even go here?" If you have watched it, you've probably watched every possible edit of it. Nothing will ever beat the feeling of that win.


11. Continuing to watch endless Penn State Football videos.

We love it... and we're not sorry.


12. Remembering that Blue and White Weekend is just around the corner.

Blue and White Weekend reminds us why we love filling Beaver Stadium every football Saturday. It gives us a sneak peek at the season to come and allows us to be crazy fans once again (I'll see you all April 22, 2017).


13. Throwback pictures of game days past.



You can never post too many game day photos.

14. Freezing outside to numb the off-season pain.

If this doesn't explain our time without football, I don't know what does.


15. Counting down the days until you see your favorite boys back on the field.

In seven months we will be throwing people in the air, losing our voices and celebrating our boys' return.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
