Winter is finally here, and it’s terrible.
If you’re like me you may have found yourself seriously wondering if there’s a tauntaun wandering around that you could use to warm up, Skywalker-style.
Fortunately for me, I do not live on the ice-planet Hoth, as much as it sometimes feels like it. But unfortunately for me, it’s still really, REALLY cold.
So, here are five ways I’ve been coping with the cold, hopefully they’ll help you too.
1. Light all your finals study guides, assignments and papers on fire and huddle near it for warmth.
You don’t need them anymore anyway and haven’t they caused you enough pain?
2. Do lunges instead of walking.
The increased energy expense will heat your body up and your quads will look fantastic.
3. Imagine you are wearing Lenny Kravitz’s infamous giant scarf.
You will feel fabulous and warm.
4. Speaking of scarves, Instead of the blanket-scarf trend, try using a literal blanket as a scarf.
If anyone asks you about it, just say “thanks, I got it at Zara”. You will look and sound so hip.
And finally,
5. Think about how this year, in 2016, we had a record number of women elected to the US Senate, more dialogue than ever about climate change, racial and gender equality, AND thanks to this year, Giant Pandas are no longer considered extinct and the world has been graced with new musical stylings by Lin Manuel-Miranda.
it probably won’t help you with your physical warmth, but it will warm your heart.
Stay toasty, my friends.
