Since you're busy stressing, cramming, and procrastinating right now...let me make your life a bit easier. I'm sure you have a lot of plans and adventures in mind for this upcoming winter break and festive season. I know you want those Instagram pictures taken for you at Dyker Heights. And I definitely know you want to catch up on your social life that you yourself have been missing out on for quite some time. Put these ideas, adventures, trip ideas, and musts on a note in your phone while you're on your way to work or school--to save time. As you shift your focus to final exams, this list will help you remember and plan for your unforgettable December.

1. Columbus Circle Holiday Market

After classes or work, take a nice stroll around the Holiday market for a warm cup of hot cocoa and some handmade gifts for your loved ones.

2. SeaGlass Carousel at the Battery Conservancy

Want to do something exciting, active, and fun? Grab a friend or two and go to Battery Park to experience the thrilling yet lovely SeaGlass carousel!

3. Dyker Heights

It's never too early for Christmas spirit! Either for the 'gram or for your personal enjoyment--head down to Dyker Heights for the perfect, magical Christmas experience.

4. Wollman Rink at Central Park

If you're looking for a new experience, ice skating at Central Park is a better option for new skaters (you wouldn't want to fall at the one in Bryant Park!)

5. (Discounted) Broadway Shows

Plays like "The Play That Goes Wrong" have seats for about $30 currently on Broadway and Headout!

6. The Hip Hop Nutcracker

The fusion of artistic dance forms in this show grabs the attention of both tourists and New Yorkers.

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.

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.
