6 Ways To Stay Cozy This Season

The cold weather is finally setting in for good, and I don't know about you, but I love it! I don't like to actually be cold though, I like to be cozy when it's cold outside. In fact, I like it so much that I've become a pro at it, so here are some of my tips for staying warm this winter season.

1. Hot drinks, hot drinks, hot drinks.

My roommate and I love tea, as you can tell from the picture. Hot cocoa, coffee, and apple cider will also work extremely well of course, depending on your preferences. Nothing is as nice as a hot drink on a cold fall or winter day, and it’ll warm your hands up as well!

2. Don’t be ashamed to look cozy.

As soon as the temperature drops below 50 degrees, I like to start wearing at least two long sleeved layers. I’m fully aware that this makes me look like I’ve gained a few pounds, but I’d really rather be warm!

3. Find yourself someone who is committed to coziness.

My significant other and I both enjoy being warm on cold days, so we plan cozy dates and when we brave the cold, we layer up and make sure to fully appreciate each other’s warm snuggly style! Having someone (even a four legged, furry someone) that really cares about you will keep you warm from your heart to your toes.

4. Or you could take a page out of these meerkats’ book...

and snuggle up with a bunch of friends! (There are about 5 or 6 of them in this cuddle pile, and doesn’t it look cozy?!)

5. Make sure your windows are sealed up well.

This is a highly practical way to go, and it will help you save on utilities as well. My roommate and I put in a work order to have our windows sealed and it turned out that our bedrooms were about 2 whole degrees cooler than the living area because the sealing on our windows was so old and worn!

6. Knitted accessories are absolutely your best friend in the wintertime.

Investing in a good pair of socks as well as a hat and gloves will help keep your entire body warm when you do inevitably have to venture outside in the cold weather.

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.
