Winter is just around the corner. A lot of people tend to hate the winter due to snow and it being unbearably cold, but there are some perks to this season. Just because it's winter doesn't mean we have to be cooped up inside all the time. Here are some fun winter activities you can do with family, friends, or a significant other.

Make a snowman

If you live in an area where it snows (you are very lucky if you do, what's it like having a white Christmas?) go outside! If it's safe to be outside of course. Be a child out there! Build a snowman, make snow angels, and go sledding! Sledding is one of my favorite childhood memories. Snow can be fun and should be fun.

Go to a light show

Light shows may look a little different due to Covid this season but that doesn't mean they aren't happening. Depending on where you live a lot of shows are still going on but are following Covid guidelines. Some are even doing drive by light shows. Grab some hot cocoa and go with a few friends!

Baking

I always say Winter season is baking season. I don't know what it is but I just love to bake when it's cold out. Buy some cookie mixes and start baking! Maybe even do a baking contest with a few people. See who can make the best holiday cookies.

A Spa day

Nothing like staying inside with some candles and face masks. Winter time is the perfect excuse to stay inside with some friends and pamper yourselves. Going away for a spa weekend might also be really fun!

These are just a few things you can do this Winter season. There are many things you can do in the winter such as ice skating, game nights, indoor rock climbing, etc. Don't stay cooped inside all the time. Go out and adventure whether its with your friends or yourself!

April Ludgate

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
