Congratulations!  Exams are done and it’s time for family, food, friends and fun!  But what are you going to do with all your free time?  Here are seven fun activities to try during your month long break!

 

1. Host a Holiday Movie Marathon

Make some holiday snacks and gather a group of your closest friends for some good laughs and Christmas movies! Whether it’s a cheesy Christmas movie on the Hallmark channel, or a classic like A Christmas Story, you’ll have a jolly time!

2. Have a Snowman-Building Party

 Put on your snow boots and snow suits on ’cause it’s time to build Frosty! Add in some hot cocoa and you have yourself the ultimate snowman-building party!

3. Volunteer

The holidays are a time for giving, so why not do it?  Whether it be at a soup kitchen or an animal shelter, every little bit counts!

4. See Santa 

Bring out your inner child and go see Santa!  What better way to bring out the spirit of Christmas then see the big man himself?! Ho, ho, ho!

5. Finish a Forgotten Project

The best feeling is finishing a project you thought you’d never finish.  So take that time to finish your masterpiece and post it all over facebook so everyone can see your work!!

6. Make a New Work Out Plan

Sometimes it can be hard balancing school, work, your social life and your health!  Make it a point to create some new dietary plans and work outs.  By the end of break, this will just become part of your daily life and something you can look forward to when school starts back up!

7. Make a Gingerbread House 

Grab your significant other or your best friend and make the most awesome gingerbread house known to man… and then eat it!

 

Have the most wonderful holiday season and make the most out of your time off!
