Starting in December, life changes on a college campus for a few months. The winter season oftentimes brings with it a good amount of snow, which some students love, and others, like myself, absolutely hate. Yes it can be magical and fun, but what happens when you get snowed in on campus for a weekend? After a few great experiences with being stuck at school because of the snow, I have a few answers to that question.

1. You eat. A lot.

As soon as the roads are too bad to drive on, you suddenly crave every single food that you don't have in your dorm room. It's okay, though, because there's always a chance that your friends or one of the convenience stores on campus might have that food, or something even better, so you find yourself eating most of the time.

2. Netflix/movie binges.

Cold weather and snow will often inspire you to stay in bed all day and relax. Typically, a snowy weekend will also bring the start of a new show on Netflix or an insanely long movie marathon with it.

3. You talk with your friends till 2 AM.

With nowhere to go and basically nothing to do, you'll probably find yourself in your friend's dorm room talking until the early hours of the morning about anything and everything. Being snowed in can leave a person feeling stir crazy, and hanging out with friends is an instant cure.

4. Constant sleeping.

Staying up late watching movies and talking with your pals will definitely lead to feeling tired, so it's a given that you'll be sleeping until noon and taking naps maybe once or twice a day. This is definitely not a bad thing.

5. You actually do homework.

All this free time might actually leave you bored enough to get ahead on your homework. This might seem like a completely crazy concept, but you might find that reading or studying provides a great distraction from the fact that you can't leave campus.

Being stuck at school because of the snow is definitely not the best experience, but it can always be better depending on what you make of it. Snow might ruin your original weekend plans, but it will undoubtedly make you improvise, and you just might end up doing something more fun or relaxing.
