60 Date Ideas For The Couple Who Never Knows What To Do
Oh My Disney

Do you ever look at your significant other and realize that neither of you have any ideas for what you should do for your date night? I know I do and it drives us crazy because we always end up doing the same thing like getting dinner or seeing a movie. So, in honor of Valentine's Day, I thought I would share some ideas! Some are tried and true, some new and adventurous, and others may be a bit unorthodox. Next time you're in a pickle and can't decide on what date night should be, take a glance at this list and maybe you'll have better luck.

Note: I didn't come up with these all on my own... I have Pinterest to thank for about half this list.

1. Karaoke!

2. Watch a foreign film and try to guess the plot or make up your own!

3. Make a mixtape/playlist together. You could make one for each other and then share, too!

4. Have a movie night at home, popcorn and everything!

5. Buy the biggest puzzle you can find at the thrift store and see how much you can do in a couple hours!

6. Make a scavenger hunt. You could make one together or make separate ones and meet up after you've finished!

7. Go to the park/playground and act like kids again!

8. Find a random campus event and see what it's about!

9. Paint pottery/take a pottery class!

10. Go out to a movie at the theater!

11. Brunch, because who doesn't love brunch?!

12. Do crosswords together! Or Sudoku or word searches if crosswords aren't your thing.

13. Visit an art gallery!

14. Take a brewery tour or go to a wine tasting!

15. Do a food crawl! Get each course at a different restaurant.

16. Make homemade ice cream sundaes!

17. Go to the beach!

18. Go rock climbing!

19. Give each other massages!

20. Take a drive... wherever!

21. Raid the fridge and pantry and have your own "Chopped" competition!

22. Go bowling!

23. Have a paint night. Get a canvas and some paint and go crazy!

24. Play games! Board games, cards, video games, whatever!

25. Teach each other a skill!

26. Go shopping and pick an outfit out for the other person!

27. Browse a bookstore! Leave small, kind notes for future readers.

28. Walk through a nature reserve!

29. Recreate your first date!

30. Pack a picnic! Eat it too, don't just pack it, it's more fun I promise.

31. Go paintballing or to laser tag!

32. Double date!

33. Have a photoshoot!

34. Go-Karting!

35. If you have one nearby, go to a trampoline park!

36. People watch and write backstories for the people you see.

37. Try a restaurant or dish you've never had!

38. Stargaze!

39. Build a fort out of blankets and pillows and binge watch TV!

40. Play at the arcade!

41. Geocache!

42. See a play or a musical!

43. Have a library day - find a book, then find a corner and read!

44. Watch the sunrise, then make breakfast together!

45. Go ice skating!

46. Find a drive-in movie theatre and see whatever they're showing!

47. Go to the range!

48. Take a dance class!

49. Try making fondue!

50. Go to the zoo!

51. Put googly eyes in random places around town!

52. In-state roadtrip!

53. Cook a meal together!

54. Do an open mic. If performing isn't your thing, just go see one!

55. Go mini-golfing!

56. See a sporting event!

57. Prank one of your friends!

58. Make your own pizza!

59. Chalk the town with nice messages!

60. Grab coffee!

Okay, now that you've got the ideas it's time to make a decision! Good luck with that one though; if anything is more difficult than coming up with date ideas, it's deciding on one! Happy Valentine's Day, everybody!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
