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.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
