28 Things to do on a Rainy Day
weheartit

It seems as if there has been more rainy days than sunny ones here in PA this summer, which leaves many people to feel extremely bored or unmotivated. I definitely get it, knowing you have to work all day when the sky is black isn't exactly exciting, and neither is knowing you had lots of errands to run and there are flash flood warnings going on your TV every other day. If you're finding yourself stuck on a rainy day, here's a few ways to make it a little less dreary.

1. Read a book.

2. Cook/bake something new

3. Clean

4. Do some shopping, online or in-store

5. Catch up on some beauty sleep

6. Watch movies

7. Start (and maybe finish) a new Netflix show

8. Go to work

9. Write a short story

10. Catch up on the news

11. Binge watch make up tutorials

12. Cuddle with your pets

13. Jump in puddles/play in the rain with pets or friends

14. Drink tea and watch the rain

15. Exercise

16. Redecorate

17. Reorganize

18. Call your parents

19. Call your grandparents

20. Do laundry

21. Take a super bath

22. Learn how to sew

23. Catch up on work

24. Stay in bed all day

25. Catch up on homework

26. Skype with family members

27. Clean out your closet

28. Do something new with your hair

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
