Reasons To Love Lazy Sundays

There's nothing better after a long week than to do simply nothing

Reasons To Love Lazy Sundays
Tumblr

I consider myself an active person. I work part time during the week while attending college full time. I study to the point I fall asleep on my books, squeeze in time to workout, salvage my social life and of course eat. I’m on the go six days a week. Although when Sunday rolls on through, it may as well be the heaven sent day of the week.

I try not to do anything on Sundays except maybe move from my bed to the couch, or to the fridge to get milk for my Cheerios. It is the day of the week to relax and not do anything. My inner laziness is displayed at its finest. Disgruntled hair, baggy sweatpants, a long sleeve that is two times too big, fuzzy socks, and endless amounts of blankets. Anyway, here is a list of reasons why I love lazy Sundays so so so very much.

1. My inner potato is displayed.

I just don’t like to do anything. It is my day to be the lazy potato that I am, have some nachos, watch some football or hockey, and sleep.

2. Rainier the better!

Rainy days automatically call for curling up on the couch and watching endless movies and fall asleep thirty minute in.

3. Cold days around Christmas.

The season is upon us, and there is nothing better than having a fireplace, Christmas decorations all around and a Christmas flick to watch.

4. Ignoring Responsibilities.

I ignore everything on Sunday. Life starts again on Monday at the sound of my alarm.

5. Imaginative.

There is nothing better than getting lost in a book for hours on end. Some people can’t stand the sight, but I embrace them and may immerse myself for a couple hours.

6. Why Change Clothes?

Okay if you went out the night before shower and change. Other than that, if there’s no obligation to something that day, why change out of those comfy clothes? Who is going to see anyway? -- Better yet, who cares?

7. Catching Up With the Fam Fam.

I catch up with my family on Sundays. I wake up, drag myself to my car, drive home, then just plop on the couch and continue my couch-laying marathon for the rest of the day. While also talking to my family of course!

8. In the Fall & Winter, it’s all about Football & Hockey.

It is the truly the most wonderful time of the year when you can eat Sunday appetizers and catch a game, maybe check a fantasy score. It can be the excitement for the day and sometimes the year for the big games!

9. It’s Your Time!

Do what you will with your Sunday. I have active Sundays where I get up and run, do some errands. I dread Mondays, and cry looking at the ridiculous amounts of homework I have do for the upcoming week. I have those moments a lot. When I do have a lazy Sunday of nothing, I cherish that like a little kid cherishes their first stuffed animal. So do what you will with your Sunday. Active or lazy!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
