A List of 6 Useful Things to do on Snow Days
Chaarg

Did school cancel because of the snow? I know Massachusetts is a victim of enormous amounts of snow. It is snow day season and for me, there is a certain amount of cancellations that can drive me into boredom. For others is a day to recuperate and relax, but I like a schedule and routine. Here is a list of things if you happen to find yourself bored or need to feel useful.

1. Write down whatever assignments you have coming up

One of the best ways of dealing with a snow day is getting work done. Although it can be known as a lazy day, be smart and use a snow day to figure out what assignments you need to get done or be ready for.

2. Chores (i.e. Cleaning your dorm room or organizing)

Need to organize your backpack, do your laundry, or clean coffee cups? Snow days are great for getting small or big chores done.

3. Read an article or a new book

Nothing wrong with sitting in bed with a cup of tea or coffee and read something new. I love reading and just zoning out of the world for just an hour or so.

4. Take time to go to the gym

Instead of rolling your eyes, maybe instead of sitting around take this free time to head to the gym and run or walk the treadmill. I promise you won't regret it and you will feel so much better!

5. Play outside!

This is obvious for some, but you can totally take this day to be a child and go play outside in the snow with some friends.

6. Bake some brownies

For those who have the ability to bake in their dorm, why not have some fun and bake some brownies or cookies. Something nice and warm!
