A List of 6 Useful Things to do on Snow Days
Chaarg

Did school cancel because of the snow? I know Massachusetts is a victim of enormous amounts of snow. It is snow day season and for me, there is a certain amount of cancellations that can drive me into boredom. For others is a day to recuperate and relax, but I like a schedule and routine. Here is a list of things if you happen to find yourself bored or need to feel useful.

1. Write down whatever assignments you have coming up

One of the best ways of dealing with a snow day is getting work done. Although it can be known as a lazy day, be smart and use a snow day to figure out what assignments you need to get done or be ready for.

2. Chores (i.e. Cleaning your dorm room or organizing)

Need to organize your backpack, do your laundry, or clean coffee cups? Snow days are great for getting small or big chores done.

3. Read an article or a new book

Nothing wrong with sitting in bed with a cup of tea or coffee and read something new. I love reading and just zoning out of the world for just an hour or so.

4. Take time to go to the gym

Instead of rolling your eyes, maybe instead of sitting around take this free time to head to the gym and run or walk the treadmill. I promise you won't regret it and you will feel so much better!

5. Play outside!

This is obvious for some, but you can totally take this day to be a child and go play outside in the snow with some friends.

6. Bake some brownies

For those who have the ability to bake in their dorm, why not have some fun and bake some brownies or cookies. Something nice and warm!

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.
