The first snowfall of the year has already passed, and I'm nervous for what is yet to come. I know Ithaca snows a lot, but I am already colder than I would like to be. I don't see how I can be so cold when I sleep with 4 fuzzy blankets.
Immediately the cold makes me want a warm drink, so to celebrate the first snowfall my friends and I rejoiced with warm drinks and movies. Who needs to be going to parties in this weather when we can just sit in the lounge and sip Hot Cocoa. I'm so glad I have a stash of tea bags and sugar or the cold may have bested me.
The air has been so cold and I have been wearing a lot of layers. The cold makes me not want to get out of bed or do anything. So what's better than lying in bed and watching so many Christmas movies.
The snow has begun to fall for longer times and it's actually sticking to the ground. That stresses me out so much, but movies can make it all better. Here are some great lazy day movies and shows we watch to pass the time.
1. The Grinch Who Stole Christmas
www.telegraph.co.ukWhether it is the one on Netflix or the one in theaters right now. There is always the opportunity to watch the grinch and get into the Christmas mood.

Start the Christmas season off right by watching the classics and enjoy the new ones that just came out on Netflix. Obviously do your homework and stay on top of your work, but in those free times there are so many movies you can see.
