Man, we must miss summer.

It's Winter. Are You Bored Yet?
Lou, indianagirlonabike

With semester coming to a close, going home sounds wonderful. Family, friends from high school, going back to your favorite coffee shop: it all sounds so perfect. UNLESS YOU LIVE IN NORTHWEST INDIANA, WHERE IT SNOWS AT LEAST 12 INCHES IN THE FIRST TWO DAYS OF A FOUR DAY BLIZZARD. Sadly, that is where I live. But while cooped up in this storm, I've been thinking about how I could entertain myself. So, if you live in a snowy area, or are just bored, here are some things that you could do!

1.) It's time to start a blog

I'm almost positive I started my Tumblr in a blizzard a few years back. Whether it's posting original works or browsing the latest memes and funky catch phrases, Tumblr is one of my favorite pass times. It's easy to get lost in the web and laugh.

2.) Binge watch your heart out

Recently I have been binge watching shows left and right. Not new ones all the time, because I can't find anything that makes me interested (PLEASE GIVE SUGGESTIONS). But Criminal Minds, has had my attention for the last few months. This show has a healthy 11 seasons on Netflix and ranges from 19 to 23 episodes, talk about BINGEING YOUR LIFE AWAY. Or I watch Lie to Me, definitely would recommend this show to everyone. It's about reading people's faces and seeing if they're lying. It has three seasons and roughly 13 episodes in each.

3.) SLEDDING

Ahh, yes. Wear a coat and make yourself comfortable as you go 10+ mph down a hill and laugh your heart out. The snow can get packed enough to feel hard so falling on it may hurt, just be sure to be careful.

4.) Browse the internet

Relevant to blogging, but with this you can shop on Amazon or thisiswhyimbroke.com. They both offer tremendous discounts on funky things that could make someone laugh or cringe -- your choice.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

NBC Universal

As most of us already know, Friends is one of the greatest television series ever produced. The cast is genius. The humor never gets old. The episodes are relatable and timeless.

I can easily say that I have watched each season at least three times and I belly laugh harder every time. All Friends fans can agree that there are certain lines that form a bond between us and when heard one cannot help but laugh.

The infamous RBF is something I have and am known for. It’s kind of exhausting to be asked if you're okay all the time or being told to smile more. Girls with RBF get judged to be mean and rude much quicker than the girl who is always smiling. It’s true and just plain natural for someone who is generally smiling all the time to come off as more trustworthy and I've gotten used to it. I used to think that having a Resting Bitch Face was only a bad thing until I realized that just like anything else, it also has its perks. Having a permafrown with a piercing look comes with great power.

Parks and Rec
IndieWire

We all know that Parks and Recreation is one of the greatest shows ever to air on TV. As we watched every episode, we all found a piece of us in each character (even Jerry). From the moment we met the pit, to the time we saw it flourish into a beautiful park, we all had developed a little bit of Pawnee, Indiana in our hearts.
