Binghamton is always cold and always dark and dreary. In fact, Binghamton logged more rainy days than Seattle did last year.

Fortunately, there are those days that are 70 degrees and sunny and everyone is sure to make use of them as well as they can.

On days like these, there’s some things that you’re bound to see.

1: HAMMOCKS!

I don’t know where the hammocks disappear to when it’s cold, but once it gets warm, they appear all over campus. Good luck finding one to use though. They’re probably taken, kind of luck a Jazzman’s booth.

2: Selfies and photoshoots

It’s very important to document the warm weather while it’s here because it won’t last long. #Springhamton

3: People are actually happy.

My friend came to visit in January and said to me: “why is everyone miserable and sad”. I told her, look at the sky. Once the sky turns blue, frowns turn upside down and happiness is upon us.

4: Summer dresses and Shorts

Is it dress weather? Probably not. It’s probably windy and not 90 degrees, but hey we take what we can get.

5: The fields are in use

Every residential community has a grassy area that usually serves as a reminder of the summer days that never come. However, when those days do arise you’re bound to see a baseball catch going on.

It was a beautiful weekend, Binghamton. Can’t wait to bundle up in the snow again. C’mon we can’t be blessed for too long!

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
