When do we ever have a snow day? Well in college life you will get there eventually. During high school, everyone was so excited when the snow came, however, college students had a whole new battle. Usually, colleges don't cancel when it's snowing so its also a surprise when they do cancel. But hey who doesn't love a day off?

Whether a class canceled or the university itself closed? What if it's too freezing to even leave your house or dorm? There still are things you can do at your house to have fun during a snow day!

1. Try to make a home made meal

Don't we all love food? Well its always a good thing to learn how to cook! Who said cooking isn't fun? When you have a day off you should attempt cooking because even though it can get messy you will get the satisfaction of knowing how to cook a certain dish and wont have to rely on other sources of food.

2. Make a cup of coffee!

Instant coffee is just the bomb on a cold day. Try to skip starbucks for one day and make some coffee at home.

3. Spend time with your family!

If you live in a dorm this one can be hard but you also have the option of calling your family. For commuters this one is the easiest. Often time we get so caught up with college and work that we can't spend a lot of time with family. So a snow day is a perfect excuse to spend time with your loved ones.

4. Do that one thing you been holding off!

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.

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.

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.
