My Snowday Must- Haves

     So, this week we all got a couple extra das off of school, which was very nice but bittersweet, as we could not leave the house and if you were like me, you got bored fast. So, I want to share with you what keeps me entertained and happy on a snowday.
     First of all, warm drinks. There are many choice drinks, such as coffee, or hot chocolate, but my favorite hot drink is green tea, just because all you have to do is put the bag in water and it'll taste the same every time. Warm drinks make you feel cozy and warm, which is exactly what you need. Fun snacks are important too, I like to go with something like a smoothie that'll remind me of the summer. This week I made a watermelon smoothie, which was very refreshing and made me feel like I wasn't trapped inside because of two feet of snow and hurricane force winds.
     Next, good movies are necessary. I usually go with really deep movies or action movies- not necessarily chick flicks, but ones that'll make me think and distract me for a long time. Some really good movies are: Palo Alto, Submarine, Attack the Block, and The Silver Linings Playbook. All of these aren't very well known, so its nice to watch something and not be influenced by everyone's opinions of it. Netflix is important too in this case, I recommend binge-watching a series for the entirety of the day.
     Also, a good playlist doesn't hurt. On these kind of days, I usually like calmer music, like some rap, but for the first half of the day I just had to stream Fifth Harmony's new album Reflection (out February 3rd, its so good I suggest buying it) because iTunes did a first listen type deal on iTunes radio. After I heard the angels descend from heaven in music form, I put on my rap playlist, which has artists like Tyler, the Creator, and a lot of Mellowhype. I like really chill music when its cold out, so rap is just the thing.
     Finally, blankets. Need I say more?
