Now that finals are over, it seems like everyone can’t wait another moment to go home for the holidays. These past couple weeks for us college students have had a lack of sleep, an over abundance of coffee and definitely too much stress, and to be honest we all really deserve this break. Now I do understand that some of you are like myself and must stay several more days to work but you can cross some of these items off your list before you leave! For those who are already home, the idea seemed fun and all but after a couple of days you inevitably get bored and lock yourself back in your room. And what a shame that would be, instead here are 21 things everyone should do! It might take you all break or only a couple of days, but everyone can enjoy their break a bit more!

1. Watch a classic movie you have never seen before.

2. Do all your laundry…. yes, all of it.

3. Try a one new restaurant every day.

4. Visit an old hobby like photography or sports with some old friends.

5. Finally clean out your closet with stuff you don’t wear and donate it.

6. Make festive desserts like reindeer cookies.

7. Get a hair cut, it is probably time anyway since most people get one before school starts.

8. Pick a series on Netflix and binge watch the whole thing until it’s done.

9. Volunteer somewhere, anywhere!

10. Take a spontaneous day trip somewhere new.

11. Sew that hole in your favorite sweater that you keep forgetting about and hoping no one notices.

12. Dress your animal up to take pictures with Santa.

13. Discover a new artist and learn one of their songs.

14. Take your siblings out for quality time.

15. Take advantage of holiday sales.

16. Tell your loved ones that you love them.

17. Work on your LinkedIn profile.

18. Go through your phone and delete all those pictures (once you save them).

19. Wash your car, inside and out…

20. Find a reason to wear an ugly Christmas sweater.

21. Download Uber to make sure everyone can get home safe.
