After Christmas

December 26th is, for me, the most depressing day of the year. If you celebrate Christmas then you know- the excitement is over, all the presents are unwrapped, and you kind of want to cry. However, it doesn't have to be all bad! Here's 10 activities to keep the holiday spirit alive!


1. Eat Your Feelings

For real, eat them. Calories don't count during the holiday's and Christmas leftovers are THE BEST. Wake up early and chow down!

2. Drink Your Feelings

Mixed drinks and Hallmark movies, am I right?!

3. Have a Spa Day

Paint your toenails, take a bath, relax!

4. Harry Potter Marathon

You know you want to. Harry Potter cures everything! Cuddle up with someone special- whether that's a person or your mound of leftovers- and re-live the best movie series ever.

5. Go Shopping

There's nothing like a little retail therapy. Take those gift cards and catch the after-Christmas sales!

6. Go Sledding

Haven't been in a while? Well, why not??

7. Pretend it isn't over and have Christmas, part 2.

Just keep on celebrating like it hasn't ended! Besides, the nightmare that has been 2016 will soon be over! That's something to celebrate!

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
