Snow Day Bucket List 2016

Because we learned a lot from the snow days in 2015.

Snow Day Bucket List 2016

If you're from the tri-state area you are more than aware of the record-breaking warm weather we have been having. Clear skies and light layers on Christmas morning, who ever heard of such a thing? Luckily it's been getting a bit colder each and every day. You know what that means? Snow day!


This time. last year we were already snowed in just one week after classes had started, and just a week or so after, another storm kept us home for another couple days. Also, let's not forgot the Valentine's Day Blizzard of 2015. It seemed like we would never see green land again. Last year's abundance of snowfall has prepared us for every single future snow storm. So, although lately the temperature has made us doubt snowfall, you know it's coming. Here a list of things you must absolutely do during the snow days of 2016!

Eat.

If you were smart, you would have prepared for the snow day but heading to the supermarket and buying just about every frozen pizza and rolls of cookie dough. Some people go for milk, batteries, and water, but none of those taste as good as raw cookie dough.

Netflix.

As your eating your pizza and snuggled up on the couch with your housemates it's the perfect time for some serious Netflix marathons. My favorite movie to watch during snow days is Breakfast at Tiffany's! (But then again, it's my favorite movie to watch no matter what the weather is!)

Catch up on school work.

A snow day is a perfect day to get ahead on some school work and assignments. Now you have a whole 24 hours free to get that paper that was due the day before and study for the exam that was supposed to be the day of the storm!

Instagram.

Go around and capture a great picture of campus covered in a blanket of snow. Nothing gets the likes flowing quite like a scenic snow pic. Just do it for the gram.

Online shopping.

Getting to the mall might be a bit unrealistic due to the snow but that doesn't mean shopping is completely out of the picture. Besides, while you have the time you might as well start shopping for the perfect spring break bikini.

Yoga.

Speaking about that spring break bikini, try doing a few simple yoga moves to get in shape and warm up your body!

Drink.

Drink everything. Whatever is in your fridge just drink it. Wine, beer, margs, whatever. Anything goes if it snows!

Build a super cool igloo. And then drink in the igloo.

Frolic around in the snow.

Wear PJ's all day.

Because the only time you'll need to leave the house is to play in the snow, there is absolutely no excuse to put on real pants or shoes. The best part about snow days is being able to finish the day in the same pajamas you woke up in.

Think about summer.

Because snow will never compare to laying on the beach.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
