So you’ve survived finals and now are well on your way to Christmas Break. Finally! But, now you’ve come to find yourself bored with nothing to do because you’ve been so busy with finals you have forgotten to make plans! Check out some of fun things to do over break!

Hit the Springs

Nothing is better than hitting the slopes; whether it be tubing or something more advanced like snowboarding, getting out to places like Seven Springs is the perfect way to spend a snow day!

Drink Hot Chocolate 

For those chilly days you just don’t feel like moving, drinking some hot chocolate and maybe cozying up to a movie is a nice way to unwind and relax! Can you say Lazy Day!

Visit some White Elephant Christmas Parties

I love the excitement that surrounds White Elephant Christmas Parties. The thrill of not knowing what you’re going to get is always exhilarating. Be sure to attend one over break!

D.I.Y. Christmas Crafts 

You’re never too old for crafts.. especially ones that can be put on your Christmas Tree. Try your hand at making some very cute D.I.Y. Christmas Ornaments this Holiday Season! *Bonus points if you make them for someone special!

Spend some time with the Fam

Nothing is better than spending some much needed quality time with your family. After months and months of hard work and stress, be sure to bask in all of the relaxation and bliss that is Christmas Break!  

Throw a NYE Celebration 

What’s a better way to start the New Year than with some of your best friends and family surrounding you! Get to your nearest department and dollar stores like Target and Dollar General for some of the best decorations for less! *And be sure to take lots of pics for the memories!!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays HC SVC!

St Vincent '18

Hello there! I am the Campus Correspondent of the Her Campus chapter at Saint Vincent College. As a senior psychology major, I've made the most of my time in undergrad and am excited for all the doors I have opening ahead of me. I can definitely thank Her Campus for giving me invaluable skills. As a future psychologist, I hope that my articles (and the chapter's) are able to make you feel empowered, motivate you to start a conversation, and be kind. As a hero of mine has said, "If you do not take control over your time and your life, other people will gobble it up. If you don't prioritize yourself, you constantly start falling lower and lower on your list."- Michelle Obama. Be the change you want to see in the world, and smile. Always smile!
