16 Things To Do On A Rainy Day

It's finally summer, but the weather doesn't seem to agree. In Michigan, the weather hasn't been as great lately, and there have been a lot of rainy days even though it's supposed to be summer! I've been pretty bored some days, especially when it's raining. I'll be hanging out with friends, it starts pouring, and then our plans are ruined. So here are some ideas that will help make the best of your summer-even on the rainy days!

1. Binge Netflix

4. Cook

Find a new recipe to try out and take some time to cook. This can be a fun thing to do with a friend or your significant other as well!

5. Clean

This might not be as fun as some of the other ideas, but a rainy day is a good time to be productive if you're staying indoors. Blast some music and clean your house or go through stuff in your room.

6. Play some games

Have a board game night with your friends or family. See how competitive it can get.

You can paint canvases, mugs, glasses- almost anything. Get crafty!

8. Make bracelets

Make beaded or thread bracelets like you did when you were younger- even make friendship bracelets!

9. Cuddle

It's a rainy day so snuggle up in bed and cuddle while watching movies with your boyfriend or girlfriend.

10. Movie marathon

Find a movie series and have a marathon with friends or family. This is especially a good one when it's pouring and if you've got all day. Grab some good snacks to go along too.

11. Do yoga or work out

Try some yoga! Take a class or watch some videos online. You could drive to your local gym or even do an at-home work out if you don't want to face the rain.

12. Watch YouTube

There's TONS of stuff to watch on YouTube, no matter your taste. Find some new channels you like and watch some videos.

13. Arcade

Going to an arcade can be a fun thing to do. It can also be a good rainy day date idea too!

14. Bowling

Get a group of people together to play a couple games.

15. Video Games

Play some old games or some new ones. Make a little tournament out of it, and have some fun!

16. Rock climbing

Go indoor rock climbing with a friend or a group of friends and see how you do.

There's a bunch of things you can still do on rainy days to have fun! Make the best of your summer and try out some new ides in your free time.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
