If your life is anything like mine, you're always in a hustle. Between being a full-time student, a part of clubs and activities, sometimes having to be in the library a little too late, and still managing a social life doesn't leave a lot of time to just take a breather from it all. When it does happen, it's a blessing, and more often than not, happens to fall on my favorite undervalued occasion, a rainy Sunday.
Rainy Sundays are a blessing in disguise. When it's rainy, the world seems to quiet down and hunker down inside. Coupling this with the typically less busy, recovery day from a hectic week that Sunday is creates a beautiful combination that many don't appreciate. The day is welcoming you to do so much without doing much at all.
1. Rainy Sundays call for sleeping in. The sound of rain is like a lullaby for big kids.
2. Rainy Sundays call for a long hot shower. Or at least longer than your usual half hour.
3. Rainy Sundays call for no makeup. Not that there's ever really a need for it.
4. Rainy Sundays call for online shopping. Go ahead and splurge, the day needs some sunshine.
5. Rainy Sundays call for over-sized sweatshirts. And some fleece-lined leggings wouldn't hurt either.
6. Rainy Sundays call for watching a full season on Netflix. Or even two if it's that kind of day.
7. Rainy Sundays call for hot cocoa. Or any preferred hot beverage, really.
8. Rainy Sundays call for candles. Grab your go-to scent and cuddle up.
9. Rainy Sundays call for painting your nails. Go ahead and do three coats, you've got all day.
10. Rainy Sundays call for YouTube tutorials. Which you most likely won't be able to do on yourself.
11. Rainy Sundays call for a good book. There's no shame in reading it cover to cover either.
12. Rainy Sundays call for slippers. Real shoes are out of the question.
13. Rainy Sundays call for a face mask. Always exfoliate when you get the chance.
14. Rainy Sundays call for a mellow Spotify station. Cue the John, Colbie, Corinne, and Jack.
15. Rainy Sundays call for messy buns. Honestly the only practical hair style for Sundays.
16. Rainy Sundays call for too many layers of blankets. If you aren't on the brink of sweating, add more.
17. Rainy Sundays call for lengthy Pinterest browsing. Go ahead and pin your future, plan ahead.
18. Rainy Sundays call for lots of snacks. Maintain variety so you can't say you ate the whole bag alone.
19. Rainy Sundays probably should call for catching up on some homework. Probably, but eh.
20. Rainy Sundays call for letting time slow down for just a little while. Soak it all in while you can.
