What To Do Over Your Obsenely Long Winter Break

In This Article:

Some colleges (like mine) have crazy long Winter Breaks that leave them with seemingly nothing to do. However, that doe not have to be the case! Just because your friends from home are back at their schools, and your left without a car or anyone to hang out with, doesn't mean you can't have fun! Below are some ways to occupy your time.

Get a job 

Because working is way more fun than being at college!

Sleep

Because you probably didn't get that much during the semester.

Watch paint dry 

For those of us that have quite a bit of time.

Clean

And then clean again. Yes, because you're really that bored.

Make a rash decision 

Making rash decisions usually isn't responsible, and usually doesn't end well, but you have a lot of time on your hands! So you make a mess with your hasty decisions, but you have plenty of time to spend picking up the pieces!

Rewatch the same TV show you've seen 3 times 

You may have missed a joke or two the first 3 times through

Drive around (if your siblings haven't hijacked your car) 

Drive around your small, little town. Maybe in a hoodie and glasses, in the case you see someone you know.

I could go on and on about how to sarcastically beat your boredom, but this list is boring me. Good luck!

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.
