Stephanie’s Pinterest Picks of the Week: Hurricane Sandy Edition

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bentley chapter.

Happy Monday! This week I am prepping you for the arrival of Hurricane Sandy with games, cordless phone chargers and quick snacks. Be careful, collegiettes! If you have other Pins that have helped you get ready for the storm, leave them in the comment section below!

This week’s first Pin is from The Family Kitchen on Babble. This Instant Mug O’ Mac & Cheese in the Microwave will be perfect for a quick snack if you can’t safely drive to get food or if it’s raining too hard to walk to the dining hall.

Hasbro has made every game-lovers day with their Words With Friends board game! This is the Scrabble of the iPhone age. So if the storm cancels your intermural game or club meetings, grab your roommates and your friends across the hall, make some snacks and save your phone battery by playing Words With (Real) Friends!

However, if you do use your phone battery playing games and checking the weather, Uncommon Goods sells portable chargers for only $35. This device will charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod for an additional 3 hours. It can be plugged into a wall outlet and only takes three hours to charge fully. This is a perfect gadget to have on hand for potential power outages!

Sephora and Monopoly have teamed up to bring you your favorite beauty store in a board game! You can “go to jail for bad hair days, advance to go for winning a shopping spree and pay for products with Beauty Bucks.” In the game, you can create your very own Sephora store and make your favorite beauty products come to life to fuel your shopping addiction and curb your boredom during the storm!

Random Antics shares The Ultimate Ab and Core Challenge Workout– an intense abdominal workout similar to P90X. This workout looks insane– if you make it all the way through and do all the suggested reps, you will complete 300 abdominal exercises! This is a great dorm room workout to do with your roommates if the gym closes during the storm!
