Winter weather can be cold and gloomy, but that does not mean you have to stay inside. There are many things you can do out and enjoy in the cold weather.

You can go out to the mall and do some shopping. Most malls have a movie theater which is another great thing to do in cold weather. Some outside things you can do are build a snowman or play in the snow if it snows. You can also even go see Christmas lights near Christmas which is always fun.

Shopping is such a enjoyable thing. Everyone needs a little retail therapy every so enough. Getting out in the cold can be not fun. You can make it enjoyable by doing things you enjoy. Shopping is fun when you find great deals. It is also very fun when you shop for someone else.

My favorite time for shopping is around Christmas. I enjoy shopping for other people so much better. It is so fun shopping for other people, then watching them open the present on Christmas. It makes you feel so good when you know someone enjoys and likes their gift you gave them.

Build A Snowman

Playing in the snow is such fun in the cold weather. You might only get snow once every couple of years, so when you get it you enjoy it. Being outside with family, enjoying the snow is so fun. Most people do not get snow every enough so if you get to enjoy it you are lucky.

You get to enjoy the snow by building a snowman. Also, many families have snow ball fights which are so much fun. You can also sled in the snow if you have enough snow. The snow is very cold but can still be a very fun thing to enjoy. Do not be afraid of getting cold because playing in the snow is worth it.

Bonfire

Hosting a bonfire is so much fun. It is a time just to relax and hang out with friends and family. Gathering around a fire is just so relaxing and chill. You can eat good food, enjoy a fire, and hang with friends. Most people enjoy having gathering around a fire because you can socialize easier than going out somewhere.

Having a bonfire is fun. You can sit beside the fire and just talk about everything. You can roast marshmallows on the fire to make a good s'more. Bonfires are such a good party and hosting event you might smell like smoke after but it is so worth the relaxing time hanging with friends.

Movie Night

Cold weather can make you not wont to go outside, but do not let it stop you from enjoying things. Going to the movies is such a good thing to do in cold weather. It is a good idea because you are inside in the warm. Movies are a good thing to enjoy as a family. You might not talk during a movie but being around family is what matters.

Movies are actually really fun to go to. You get to sit in really comfortable seats, and watch the movie you have been waiting on on a huge screen. Watching a movie in a theater than at home is so much different. You get comfortable seats, good popcorn, and a big screen to enjoy the movie.

Christmas Lights

Christmas lights are so fun to go see. Even though the weather is cold, do not let it stop you from going to enjoy the lights. Going to see Christmas lights has been very popular for many years. Most families look forward to going to enjoy the pretty things with each other.

Decorating your house for Christmas has also become very popular. Most families decorate their house every year. It is just so festive to have the Christmas spirit all over your house. Christmas lights are so fun to go watch. They for sure put you in the Christmas spirit.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.
