11 Things To Do On Rainy Days

Hurricane Matthews is alive and here people. Thankfully, students like me who go to Appalachian State University do not have to worry about the hurricane too much, but now it has been pouring every single day. Rain should be an enjoyable thing right? I mean after all rain gives the earth life and should be appreciated not wished away. But after days of constant rain it can get excessive. Rain sometimes makes us want to be lazy and lay around all day, and sometimes can become slightly depressing. To avoid laying around every day in boredom, I have formed a list of 11 activities you can do alone or with your pals during a storm.


1. Pop in a Movie


2. Break Out the Board Games


3. Get Crafty With Your Friends


4. Clean Your Room (like you've been meaning to get to for a month now)


5. Read a Book


6. Blast Some Music and Dance!


7. Bake Some Desserts and Grub


8. Workout Indoors


9. Catch Up On Homework


10. Take a Bubble Bath


11. Start a New Series on Netflix


There are plenty of ways to make rainy days less dreary, so as we sit through Hurricane Matthews let's remember there are plenty of things we can do indoors. For those who live on the coast, I am keeping you and your families in my thoughts and prayers. Please stay dry and safe everyone, and enjoy these rainy days!

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.
