Time to enjoy your snow day(s) to the fullest by eating, writing, sleeping, and watching some great flicks, of course! Look no further: your savior to boredom is here!

1. Make a full breakfast.


Over the top doesn't exist when you're snowed in and positively have nothing better to do than create frittatas and flip flapjacks all morning long. Sure, go ahead, make freshly-squeezed orange juice while you're at it, as well! Oh, and don't forget the hot chocolate for Dad who just came in from shoveling that mess out there while you stayed cozy in your jammies.

2. Read something.

With nothing else to do or anywhere to be, there's no better time to crack open the novel that's been sitting on your desk unread for centuries. Or feel free to crack open the Sunday paper and see what Donny T and the team has been up to (be prepared to write letters to Congress after that read though).


3. Watch a classic.

Finally, a day that you can actually dedicate to Netflix without any guilt at all! Pop some corn and plant yourself in front of the TV for a full, snowed-in day of binging of "Stranger Things." If you're really up for it though, spend the day watching classics, from holiday spirited ones such as "It's a Wonderful Life" to Audrey Hepburn's fantastic performance in "Breakfast at Tiffany's."


4. Journal

Take advantage of free time before school starts up again and get all your personal thoughts down on paper. Feel free to join the bandwagon on bullet journaling as well because it is a great way to become even more organized and it's also aesthetically pleasing!


5. A nap is always a good idea.

There's no better time to sleep than during a blizzard that creates the soothing, blissfully grey light that practically lulls you to sleep anyway. Take advantage of your inability to leave your house by curling up under the covers for a few hours...or days.

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.

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.
