College Snow Day Activities

"A snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky—unbidden—and seems like a thing of wonder." - Susan Orlean

Yes, believe or not, college snow days are a thing! It's the best thing to find out when you have an 8 am class or a test that you weren't completely prepared for. Now you get extra sleep, extra time to study, and extra time to relax. It's a fantastic day in every college students life. Waking up to that email saying classes are cancelled is the greatest thing ever. And the looking outside to see the field of white snow is the other greatest pert of the day. It makes us feel like children again. Take us back to waking up hearing the school was cancelled and you got the whole day to hangout with all your friends. It leaves you with so many different possibilities for the day.

1) Photoshoot

When you're bored and have nothing else to do, go do a photoshoot with your friends in the fresh new snow. Sure it might get cold but it'll be great way to get Instagram posts and memories with your friends. It's also a great way to go exploring your campus and seeing new things. It's so much fun to just run around and act insane with your friends.

2) Movie Night

Now who doesn't love a movie night? Especially a movie night with friends and hot coco. It's a great way to get warm. To just sit under blankets and be cozy and drink the warm hot coco, it's a great way to relax and not worry about school for one day. And you can watch as many movies as you want to. You could watch disney movies, or action movies, or romance movies. You can watch all of them if you really want to. The possibilities for movie night are endless. Especially if you need to warm up after being outside.

3) Sledding!!

Time to steal the cafeteria trays and hit the closest hill on campus! This is an unspoken rule across all campus' when snow has graced our campus. As college students, we don't really think to bring sleds to school as a necessity. That's why we use makeshift sleds. Some of us use trays, some freeze towels and use those, and then others use container tops. It's a great way to go back into our childhood and feel the nostalgia of sledding.

4) Cooking Party

This is a great excuse to break out the cooking manual and make some great stuff. Now you can divulge in so much food. It's nice to eat everything on a lazy snow day, especially if you and your friends made it yourself.

Snow days are the greatest part of school in the winter time. You can do anything and everything on snow days. It's the greatest part of living in the north and have the ability of snow falling from the sky. Snow days are everyones favorite days to have.

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.
