After dating someone for a while, coming up with new date nights can start to become difficult. Going out on dates shouldn't be a chore instead of something fun. It seems like the two of you start to do the same two things, and it may seem to get old after a while. Don't get me wrong, if you like someone and love to spend time with them, any time with that one special person is unique in its own way, but sometimes it's just nice to mix it up.

See a movie at the Kentucky Theater

@thekentuckytheater

Although I have never been to the Kentucky Theater myself, I would definitely love to go with my boyfriend on a cute movie date. This theater in downtown Lexington would be so much better than your average movie date night.

Head over to the distillery district and try a local beer

@lexdistillerydistrict

Get out of your comfort zone and try out a new, unique beer. Try all kinds and enjoy some appetizers with your S.O.

Go ax throwing

@battleaxesky

I’ve only been ax throwing once, and I must say, it was a lot more fun than I ever though it would be. Since there is ax throwing in the Distillery District in Lexington, end your date night with some Good Fellas pizza.

Go go-cart and have fun at the arcade in Malibu Jacks

@malibujackslexington

Truthfully, there is nothing I love more than a fun arcade outing. You and your S.O. are in for a treat at Malibu Jacks!

Get active and go for a jog at the Arboretum

Finances Uncomplicated

Something I keep telling my boyfriend I want to go do together is go for a run together. Although food always sounds like the better option, going for a jog in the arboretum is on our list of date ideas for the future!

Ditch all electronics and play a few board games

My boyfriend and I are too competitive. If we started playing a board game or card game or any type of game, then we would be stuck there all day moving on to the next game just to try to beat each other.

Take a tour of a Lexington local distillery

@jamespepper

Learn something new and try out a tour of a local distillery. The Kentucky Castle has some fun tour options that you and your S.O. could go explore together!

Stay in and cook a new meal together

Try a new recipe you’ve been dying to test out.

Go out dancing

This doesn’t mean go take dance lessons, but find a fun bar or club that has awesome music you both love to listen to. Enjoy the people watching and the music and have fun together!

Go to World of Beer's trivia nights on Monday

@woblexington

Split a big pretzel and beer cheese and wow the other people with your smarts!

Take a drive around the scenic areas of Lexington and eat lunch at Wallace Station

@wallacestationofficial

Wallace Station is one of those hidden gems of Lexington. It’s so beautiful in the fall or late spring which means it is perfect for a couples photo op.

Go get dinner and a movie at the Movie Tavern

@movietavern

Not your typical dinner and a movie, but still amazing.

Eat a pie from Missy's Pies for dinner

@missyspieslex

Who doesn’t love Missy’s Pies? Maybe get a pie for the both of you and share, and eat that for dinner instead!

Take a day trip to Bardstown, KY

@btownmainstreet

Bardstown, KY has a lot of unique, small town things for you two to do together.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

Christmas tree
Librarian Lavender

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
