Although 2016 is coming to close very near there is still time to recruit some friends and go on some winter adventures you’ll remember forever.

1. Holiday Lights

Some houses certainly know how to put on a holiday show. They pull out all the stops, hundreds of lights, large inflatable blow ups, and fun displays. Whether you go out with your family or your friends, driving around your town to find the best-decorated house will be a fun time.

2. Ice Skating

Whether you go with friends, family, a loved one, or maybe all of the above ice skating is a great way to go to fill up some of your time. Even if you can’t skate I wouldn’t rule out ice skating from your to-do list. It’s a great way to spend time with people while having fun! Watch out for all those pro little kid ice skaters who zig in and out of traffic doing circles around everyone! Plus, you never fail to have that one pro figure skater on the ice who has no show everyone up, it’s some great entertainment,

3. Play in the Snow

Find your inner kid and relive all your fun winter memories. Gather your friends and family and go out and enjoy the snow. Whether that is building a snowman, having a snowball fight, building a snow fort, or making a snow angel.

4. Go Sledding

Sledding is a great thrill activity to do with anyone. As a kid, finding a huge hill and racing down it with all your friends was a definitely must during winter. However, you are never too old to bring out that old sled and find a nice hill near you!

5. Have a Movie Marathon

Bored at home with nothing to do? I would highly recommend getting yourself a nice cup of hot cocoa, blankets, and hanging out on the couch having a movie marathon. Whether you are in the mood for Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, or some classic Holiday Movie. If you’re wishing to go down the holiday path TV stations like The Hallmark Channel or Freeform play nonstop holiday movies during the holiday season,

6. Make Cookies

With hundreds of recipes online that pretty much all include the same 10 ingredients you could spend days just making cookies. These holiday treats are great to eat and great to make. If you’re looking for a great bonding activity to do in the home with friends or family making cookies is for sure a front runner!

7. Go to New York City

Last, but not least, NYC is a great play to be during the holiday season. With sales in almost every store, magnificent light displays, a large Christmas tree, or ice skating in Rockefeller Center. There are so many things to do in New York City during this time of the year and there will never be a dull moment!

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.
