Start writing a post

Below are some ideas on what to do Labor Day weekend if you are stuck on campus.

Go downtown!

Especially if you are a freshman, this is the perfect time to explore your new home. Grab some friends and take a day trip downtown. You can go to a music festival, go to a museum, or just go out to dinner and walk around. Either way, you will make new memories with some amazing people.

Participate in events on campus.

Colleges know that there are students still on campus Labor Day weekend so many clubs and organizations will host events. It creates the perfect environment to get to know more people since it will be less crowded then normal.

Get to know your roommate.

If your roommate is staying on campus as well, spend some time together! You can go to the library and study together, explore campus, or just chill out. It is a great opportunity to get to know more about each other so early on in the school year.

Catch up or get ahead on homework.

Somehow I feel like I am already behind in school even though it started a week ago. Take advantage of the extra time off to catch up on your work and start getting ahead for next week. It sucks seeing all your friends having fun at lake houses etc, but you will thank yourself later for getting ahead when everyone else is drowning in work.

It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
