15 Winter Date Ideas

If you prefer the warmth like me, then you probably agree that when you take out the Holidays, winter pretty much sucks. However, for some reason, winter is also the perfect time to cozy up to a hottie on a nice date. That being said, the hopeless romantic in me has thought up countless winter date ideas that are easy, fun, and cheap (if not FREE). You're welcome.

1. Go see the Zoo lights

This is a fun date for you to do whether it's just you two or with a group. Make sure to bundle up as you'll be outside in the cold!

2. Grab some hot chocolate

Because who doesn't like a nice cozy date drinking hot cocoa?

3. Build a blanket fort

I haven't built a blanket fort since I was little, but this just seems like such a fun thing to do before cozying up for a movie.

4. Go sledding

Because are you really ever too old for this?

5. Build a snowman

Do you wanna build a snowman? Come on let's go and play...

6. Have a snowball fight

This is a great way to stay playful, but also bring out your competitive side.

7. Christmas movie marathon

What better way to get in the mood for the season than by binge watching Elf and Polar Express, or even classics like White Christmas or It's a Wonderful Life?

8. Build a gingerbread house

I've honestly never built one, and I think it would be so much fun to try.

9. Drive around and look at Christmas lights

I remember driving around town with my family when I was little, looking at the decorated houses. This would also be a good date because it gives you plenty of time to talk.

10. Go on a sleigh ride

I've wanted to go on a sleigh ride since Scott Calvin took Carol on a ride to the Christmas party in The Santa Clause 2...

11. Take a photo with Santa

Because why not?

12. Decorate a Christmas tree

This can be a tedious job, but if you blast some Christmas music, it suddenly turns into a lot of fun!

13. Go ice skating

Ice skating has always been something I love doing in the winter time, and it's even more fun with someone you care about.

14. Shop for presents

Granted, most guys might not like this idea too much, but its nice for girls because you have someone to carry all your bags (:

15. Bake and decorate Christmas cookies

This is a good idea because baking anything means you could get a little messy, and sometimes that can be very fun.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
