6 Ways To Make The Most Of A Rainy Day
Daniel Gonzalez

As Floridians, when it comes to rainy days we aren't exactly sure what to do with ourselves. While having to reschedule beach days and picnics can be a drag, here are six ways you can make the most of a rainy day.

1. Binge all the Netflix

Nothing screams rainy day like watching a movie or binging a show on Netflix. While you can always watch something new, rainy days are prime for rewatching your favorites. You don't have to worry about getting angry or upset when you already know what's going to happen. Lazy movies days were made for rainy weather.

2. Read a book

Books are basically amazingly, awesome movies in your head. Whether you are reading for a class or trying to finish a seven-part series, rain is the perfect excuse to stay inside and catch up with your favorite characters.

3. Play some board games

While this might not work if you're by yourself (obviously) this is especially perfect if your rainy day turns into one of those nasty, power zapping storms. Nothing makes time move by faster than Monopoly and chances are you'll probably still be playing after the power is restored.

4. Organize your life

While I know this is easier said than done, it can make a huge difference in the long run. Planning out assignments, events or just cleaning up your room will turn your rainy day into a super productive day. Kudos to those that don't need rainy weather to get their lives in order.

5. Bake some treats

This is perfect for cold rainy days. Cookies, brownies and cakes make literally everything better. You can text your creativity by making new recipes or just putting something together from what's in your pantry. Baking makes a rainy day worth it. Treat yo self.

6. Take a nap

Rain sets the perfect mood for sleeping. Taking a nap, especially after a long day of running errands trying to avoid the rain, is the best way to spend your afternoon. Napping and rain were made for each other.

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
