8 Events To Try At UD This Weekend

College is the most amazing time of your life, but sometimes it can become a drag. Having the same routine day in and day out. UD offers different opportunities for students to experience each weekend on campus. Here are a few you should check out:

1. Perkins Live

Each Friday Night the student center puts on different events for students to go to. It usually involves free food and prizes.

2. Trabant Now 

This event takes place on Saturday night and is similar to Perkins Live. However, different organizations from campus usually sponsor this event. It can be anything from a spa sorority night to a small concert.

3. SCPAB Movies 

These movies happen each weekend in Trabant Theater. It's fun to bring friends along to see some of the latest movies that have just left the box office. It's a cheap way to spend a Friday night.

4. Sporting Events 

Football is in season, and there's no better way to show your school spirit than by going out to a sporting event. If you're not into football, there's usually free giveaways for the first thousand students that show up.

5. Dorm Events 

Residence Life and Housing like to try and bring their students together. If your dorm is having an event, go! It's a great way to meet new people or just have fun with your already made friends.

6. Club Trips 

Most clubs usually take their trips on the weekends. If you're super passionate about something, join the club! More often than not you'll get to go out and actually experience what you love first hand, and it gets you off campus for a few hours.

7. UDairy 

It's just a short bus ride away for a yummy treat. If your Saturday afternoon is dragging and you need to stop studying for that exam take a trip to South Campus. What makes it all the better is that they except Flex, so no money out of your own pocket!

8. Main Street 

Tired of the dining hall food? The beauty of UD is having Main Street right at your disposal. There's dozens of restaurants and many very affordable for a student's budget.

The University Of Delaware truly tries to make every single student have a special college experience. So, if you're a student, or just passing through, take some time to enjoy what it has to offer.

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.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
