The 5 Best Ways To Spend A Snow Day At TCNJ
Alyssa Doyle

Even though it's already technically spring and I hate the cold just as much as the next person, I always appreciate a snow day (or two). We had three snow days this winter season here at TCNJ, and I've loved being cooped up inside and relaxing or maybe catching up on homework. (Just kidding, I don't enjoy that.) Nevertheless, a snow day is always a good time to catch up on everything and take a break from the long week. So, if you're looking for something to do on your next snow day, here are my suggestions:

1. Drink hot chocolate

Now I'm normally a coffee drinker, but there's just something about having a hot cup of cocoa when the outside world is blanketed in snow that always makes me smile.

2. Watch Netflix

I know I wasn't the only one doing this during the last few snow days. Sometimes it can be hard to watch your latest binge-worthy show during the week, so a snow day is the perfect time to indulge yourself!

3. Read a book

Just like watching Netflix, reading (for pleasure) can be hard during the school year, especially because as an English major, I read so many books for my classes. That's why I love to spend a snow day cozying up to a good book.

4. Play in the snow

In my opinion, you're never too old to play in the snow. If you're feeling adventurous and you've got the gear for it, go outside and throw some snowballs and make snow angels.

5. Sleep

I don't know about everyone else, but this is my absolute favorite one on the list. Most mornings, I'm up relatively early, so I definitely use a snow day as an excuse to sleep in a bit later than usual. It's well deserved!

I hope you've enjoyed my list of things to do on snow days, but I'm also hoping that we're done with the snow for this year. Summer, where are you at?

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.
