Advice for a Rainy Day at College
If you have ever been to Mobile, Alabama, then you know that it rains here a lot. As a student at the 秋霞福利一区, I can honestly say that if it does not rain every other day, it is an off week. According to WorldAtlas.com, Mobile is the wettest city in the U.S. with 67 inches of rain per year. Living with the possibility that it is probably going to rain on any given day, I have composed a list of a few things to do when it鈥檚 raining.
Play Board Games 聽| 聽One of the most enjoyable things to do on a rainy day is to play some board games. Between me and my friends, there are always games to play and friendships to test while playing a 鈥渃ivil鈥� game of Monopoly in Bedsole Commons. Even playing card games like Uno and Phase 10 are a great way to spend the night indoors and enjoying the company of your friends.
Start a Watch Party 聽| 聽Another great thing to do while it鈥檚 raining is to start a watch party. Just like playing board games, starting a watch party is free. All you need is to find a movie or tv show and a friend with a streaming service and you鈥檙e set. Kick back, relax, and enjoy watching with your friends.
Enjoy What Mobile Has to Offer 聽| 聽While it is nice to be able to stay inside and save money, it is also fun to go out, even at the cost of a little money. All around Mobile, there are many things to do, even if it鈥檚 raining. These include museums, bowling, movie theatre, roller skating, concerts or even just going to the mall. A little friendly competition at the bowling alley or a trip to the mall can turn your rainy-day blues into a great day.
Time Alone 聽| 聽The last thing I want to talk about is something that I hold near and dear to my heart as a college student, and that is some good old-fashioned time alone. On rainy days, I enjoy taking a long nap. Whether you have some homework to catch up on or your favorite Netflix series to binge, rainy days are the best days to relax and do as you please.
It rains a lot in Mobile; we all know that. However, don鈥檛 let the rain keep you from having a good time. Even though your beach trip gets cancelled, there are so many other things to do in Mobile. Take the rainy days as they come, because they come a lot. Just be sure to have a back-up plan, because it鈥檚 probably going to rain!
