Winter of Our Discontent


I know most of my entries are about weather. But I live in New England, weather is a big part of our lifestyle, as is Dunkin Donuts. Snowing in April is something that is actually commonplace but I must admit, this is not ideal.
            In March, the month that comes in like a lion….and truthfully comes out like lion if you look outside your window….it went from snowing to 65° weather to light jacket weather to flip flops to what the fuck. However, I am not one to complain about snow days and here are some options if you feel bored already:

  1. Shake and bake. I usually have the urge to bake things on snow days. Like a last dying wish urge to make brownies. Usually I avoid the baking and go straight towards my world famous bacon mac and cheese, because I know my neighbors will make sure that there is nothing left with it after I am done, which is good because no one wants leftover mac and cheese everywhere.

  1. Have a movie day. My roommate loves Harry Potter and she has been slowly exposing me to her culture. We have watched the first four movies on the lazy weekends of last semester. Today, we watched the fifth and proceeded to make fun of both Cedric Diggory’s death and applying Bostonian accents to random characters (i.e.  professa).

  1. Kindle party. I recently got a Kindle from Amazon and joined the Kindle club of Lakeview 25, which consists of me, Katie and Caitlin. Caitlin and Katie had their Kindles out and were reading free books and celebrating having both free books and not having school.

  1. Play outside. It’s snowing and you have all this snow gear, what are you going to do? Yes, even in college, building a snow man is as fun as it was when you were five. We throw snowballs, build snow men and women and make snow angels. Not to mention this one time where one of my friends chased after another during a snow ball fight. It was a hunt to say the least.
