Hello, my readers,
It sure is rainy today. I feel I would just talk about my favorite places to sit inside and just put music on and study, write songs, or relax.
The Library:
When you walk into the library you can go to many different floors for different vibes my personal favorite is the Food For Thought Area. There are loads of tables and areas to sit either alone or with your friends. I prefer the bustle I usually get overwhelmed if it is very quiet, especially having to work on Homework so I prefer there to be music in my headphones and people around me. But as I said I have friends who like other areas. many of them like the top floor where it’s supposed to be dead silent. (I would not recommend your music be turned all the way up in your headphones everyone can hear your music if they don’t have their own headphones in) (trust me I learned the hard way). Anyway, there are tons of places to sit and relax.
Dorm Commons:
When it is miserable out either cold, rainy, or even super hot all dorms are very nice with tons of spots to take impromptu naps or read a good book. I love to take up a chair and read s book when I have time. Especially if it’s cold some weekend days I don’t leave my room unless it is to get food and it can make me stir crazy. I like being active and going for walks but sometimes you can’t. I would totally recommend if you are with some friends use the games there is pool, ping pong, and other fun games in many of the dorms (or walk next door and use them. Also, some of the dorms have pianos which if you like to play with your friends then more power to you.)
Dorm Room:
Okay, I LOVE watching TV in my room all the time. I will make hot cocoa, sit on blankets, and eat junk food. I recommend making a cozy area that’s not just your bed if that’s a futon, cozy chair, or a bunch of pillows on the ground try not to have it on your bed that way it is a separate cozy space and when friends come over they can relax there too. I also love putting lights up and photos of artists and little wall things to make it more like a happy place remember you are living there.
Gym:
Last place is the gym. For those trail runners, I know it can make you crazy when you miss a day of running due to cold weather or rain. I either take the bus to the CREW or my dorm Currier has a gym downstairs. I run a few miles on the treadmill at a decent pace. I also love that I can cool down in all the gyms. they have spaces for stretching.
These places are great places to hang out when it is cold on campus. If you have other places please put them below I am always looking for things to do or spend time studying. Well, I hope you enjoy your rainy days and if you like the rain then no one is stopping you from dancing out in it but for those who want to stay out of the elements this hopefully helps.
Cheers
Rose
