This week at Murray State University there has been a snowpocalypse. Classes have been cancelled every day this week, so my friends and I have had to come up with things to do each day to not go crazy with boredom. Here are some things to do on snow days with your friends.

1. Make hot chocolate

Yes, this is super simple but great when it is like five degrees outside.

2. Movie nights

My friends and I do this anytime really but it is fun to watch movies in the lobby and meet new people.

3. Midnight sledding

This is usually a spur of the moment kind of adventure. All you need is some warm clothes and something that is plastic that is flat or box shaped that a person can fit in. Next, find any hill and have a blast!

4. Play Monopoly

Everyone has played Monopoly, but most people have not actually finished a game. Taking the time to play the whole games is super fun and is an easy way to get through about four hours of the day.

5. Painting bricks/rocks

My residential college put on this program and it was genius. They had a bunch of bricks for a brick garden and just let people come and paint them. Not only can you do this with your friends, but you could use them as door stops or even gift them to people.

6. Spa day

What better way to have a relaxing day than doing some face masks, painting your nails, and binge watching your favorite Netflix show?

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
