The 5 Best Ways To Spend A Snow Day At TCNJ

Even though it's already technically spring and I hate the cold just as much as the next person, I always appreciate a snow day (or two). We had three snow days this winter season here at TCNJ, and I've loved being cooped up inside and relaxing or maybe catching up on homework. (Just kidding, I don't enjoy that.) Nevertheless, a snow day is always a good time to catch up on everything and take a break from the long week. So, if you're looking for something to do on your next snow day, here are my suggestions:

1. Drink hot chocolate

Now I'm normally a coffee drinker, but there's just something about having a hot cup of cocoa when the outside world is blanketed in snow that always makes me smile.

2. Watch Netflix

I know I wasn't the only one doing this during the last few snow days. Sometimes it can be hard to watch your latest binge-worthy show during the week, so a snow day is the perfect time to indulge yourself!

3. Read a book

Just like watching Netflix, reading (for pleasure) can be hard during the school year, especially because as an English major, I read so many books for my classes. That's why I love to spend a snow day cozying up to a good book.

4. Play in the snow

In my opinion, you're never too old to play in the snow. If you're feeling adventurous and you've got the gear for it, go outside and throw some snowballs and make snow angels.

5. Sleep

I don't know about everyone else, but this is my absolute favorite one on the list. Most mornings, I'm up relatively early, so I definitely use a snow day as an excuse to sleep in a bit later than usual. It's well deserved!

I hope you've enjoyed my list of things to do on snow days, but I'm also hoping that we're done with the snow for this year. Summer, where are you at?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
