7 Survival Tips For Christmas Break
Luis Llerena

After getting through finals week, you're either completely relieved or even more stressed out depending on whether you passed or failed your classes. Hopefully, like me, you passed and can now enjoy a long, worthy, and much needed break. So, if you need things to do, this article is for you. Now that you finally get a break from college, here are some things to help you survive Christmas break.

1. Go skiing/snowboarding/tubing

Ah! One of my favorite things to do during the winter season. Go skiing, snowboarding, or even tubing. It's a great experience and is always fun.

2. Watch movies

Watching movies never gets old. Put your favorite movie in and stay in bed all day.

3. Listen to music

When you're bored and feel like singing/dancing your heart out, put on music and do it like no one's watching.

4. Read a book

Need something quiet and relaxing to do? Pick up a book an start reading it.

5. Bake

Yum! Who doesn't love baking? Look up the ingredients to your favorite cookie recipe and bake away. My favorite is using my grandma's secret recipe's.

6. Go shopping

Yes! It's Christmas shopping time! Go on a road trip to the mall with your friends and spend the money you worked hard for (hopefully.)

7. Hangout with family and friends

Don't forget about your family and friends over break. Spend quality time with them. Put effort into seeing them.

8. Sleep

One of our favorite things to do-sleep. Sleep as much as you can. I know how draining school can be. Take time to yourself and sleep. Plus, it's good for you.

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.
