Ways to Have an "Adult" Snow Day

For some of us, a snow day is actually a magical thing, not a nuisance. Those precious early morning emails with the word, "Canceled" can mean so much. Now that you're older, snow days may feel different than those childhood years of snowball fights and snowmen. That doesn't mean you can't, or shouldn't, enjoy them every bit as much.

1. Make a special breakfast (I recommend cinnamon rolls or cinnamon bun pancakes)

2. Re-read your favorite book, even if it was written for a 14-year-old

3. Wear your coziest pajamas all day and sit by the fire

4. Find the nearest ski area and go snow tubing

5. Put on a face mask that you made yourself

6. Take a long, hot bath using a bath bomb

7. Have a marathon of movies you love to hate/hate to love (like Twilight)

8. Binge watch Game of Thrones (the weather is pretty perfect for it)

9. Break out the games you haven't touched in years

10. Throw an adult sleepover with your best friends

11. Try out that crazy-looking cookie recipe you saw online

12. Make some hot drinks and go sledding

13. Cook a fancy dinner that takes all day, then invite some friends over

14. Start to plan a trip for Spring Break

15. Try on everything in your closet and come up with new outfits

16. Create the perfect snow day playlist and dance when no one's around

17. Finally open your adult coloring book

Now you can spend your snow day like adults do (or do they?)! Then again, a good snowball fight will always be fun.

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good. Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.
