We are currently halfway through April and that means the semester is almost over. For us lucky freshman, that means that a pivotal year in our lives is almost over as well. There are some things you have to do before you leave the school in 3 weeks time.
1. Go to Zinneken's
If you didn't go with your DataMatch back in February, you need to walk over to the famous waffle place. It is good for any time of day. For those freshmen in the quad, this could be the last time you're willing to make the trek all the way down Mass. Ave
2. Go to a Study Break
Your proctors and PAFs put a lot of effort to give you lucky freshmen food every week and you should take advantage of their creativity. Plus, this is one of the last places you can bond with your freshmen entryway
3. Get a Milkshake at Boston Burger Company
Honestly, if you haven't gotten a milkshake yet, you are seriously missing out and should immediately seek help for your lack of love of the best food out there.
4. Take a Selfie with John Harvard
Some of us think that we are too cool when it comes to pictures with John Harvard. However, it's really a right of passage for every Harvard student to document their lives here with a picture with Johnny
5. Jump in a Tourist's Picture
To add on with all of the John Harvard Statue's fun, us Harvard students are special since we have so many tourists wandering around campus. Don't deny it, we've all wanted to photobomb a picture of some unsuspecting tour group. So do it.
6. Leave ur dorm at 1:06 for a 1 pm class
We only have a week left of school and this is the last time we can truly appreciate Harvard time. No matter what House we are in next year, we can't leave this late for a class ever again. Leave at 1:06 for a 1 pm, or 12:06 for a 12 pm, or 11:06 for a 11...
7. Jump in the Charles River
Although this activity is better suited for August, it is one that you need to be able to tell your friends and family about when you get home. It is a right of passage for every Harvard Student, so wait until it gets a little warmer in May and release all your finals stress by jumping!
8. Eat Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner all in One Day at the Berg
We are all guilty of not taking full advantage of the best dining hall in the world. The food may be average, but the aesthetics are out of the world. Since it is only for freshmen, these are the last few days we can appreciate time with our class before we all begin eating at our houses.
9. Complete the 2 AM Greasy Food Quadfecta
Harvard Square at 2AM is essential in every college student's life. Greasy american food (Tasty Burger), greasy italian food (Pinnochio's), greasy chinese food (Hong Kong) and greasy mexican food (Felipe's) is all readily available at the place we call home. If you haven't been to all four spend ur next couple weeks going and enjoying yourself. You are in college after all.
10. Watch all the Harvard Movies
Get your blocking group and have a movie night watching The Social Network, Legally Blonde, Love Story and all other great movies based on Harvard. These are your last few weeks with them until August, so appreciate the time you have left.
11. Get out of the Harvard Bubble!
Although Harvard is great, you are also leaving behind the great city of Boston! Go to Fenway Park, shop on Newbury Street, walk the Freedom Trail; there are things for everyone!
