5 Things To Do During The Holidays | Blogmas 2016

-
Ahh, the holidays. A time of joy, a time of fun, a time of laughter, and a time to be with those you love. But there are times when you just don't know what to do on these couple weeks off. If you run into one of these times, never fear! I am here to help. Today's blogmas is 5 things to do during the holidays. Enjoy :)



   1.  build a snowman.

"Do you want to build a snowman? Cmon let's go and play! Do you wanna build a snowman?"

"Go away Anna."

"Okay."

No, I did not have to google the lyrics. I've just sung the song one too many times😬😂 anyways, this is a super fun activity, if you have snow at home. Packing snow, to be exact. If the packing snow is good, you're golden. Make it classic, or as creative as you like. It's most fun with a bunch of friends. You can even turn it into a competition!! That's super fun, I've done it before. I think we won😅😅


   


2.  have a snowball fight.

This one is best with a bunch of friends. Gather together a group, split into two teams, and go for it!! It's a classic activity, but is honestly one of my faves.


   3.  read by the fire.

Put on a fire, make up a hot drink, grab your favourite book and a blanket, and cuddle up!! It's super fun and relaxing. If you don't have a fire place, look up virtual fire places on YouTube. The first one that should pop up will even have crackling noises!! I've tried this when we wanted a short term fire. It was awesome, and I was way too proud😂


   4.  go for a walk.

Bundle up, grab a friend (or not, that works too) and go out walking!! It's super nice this time of year, and you never know what you might discover. :)


   5.  fam or friend game tournament.

Grab a group of people and a bunch of games, and have a game tournament. Prize is optional, but it's a great time for all either way. Lots of laughs pretty much guaranteed :)


That's it for this post!! Hope you liked it and/or found something you want to try!!

Hey hey hey! How are you all? So, it's Sunday! Meaning, I'M BACK :)))) Okay, so I thought I'd do a combination post, since I only got one question haha :D So first for the question from  +Paige Petrovsky  : What made you want to start a blog ? THANKS FOR YOUR QUESTION :))))))  I had always kind of wanted to do something like this, before I started. I loved (and still love) writing, and photography. I had just read Zoella's book, Girl Online, and so decided that it would be super cool to start a blog myself!! And here we are, two years later, still lovin' it :)) Alright. Now, I'm super excited to be doing a tag today!!!! The lovely  Sweet Treats  nominated me for the Mystery Bloggers Award!! A massive thank you to them, I'm honoured!! You should definitely go check out their blog cause it is pretty freaking awesome!! :) Also, the creator of this award is  Okoto Enigma , who is also pretty cool!! You should definitely check out her blog as well. I

  Hello! Long time no see, haha oops. It's been a minute. So today, I wanted to do a mini recap on my fave shows so far since quarantine! I'm sure I'm not alone in watching significantly more netflix since quarantine began lol. However, I wanted to give it a bit of a twist. So without further ado, I give you my quarantine thus far, as told through TV shows. Friends/The Goodwife - March/April/May Okay this is back when quarantine first began. My life consisted of watching Friends, doing schoolwork, procrastinating, doing more schoolwork, watching the Goodwife, and studying for exams. I can't actually remember which one I watched first - I think I watched them together. Luckily by this time there wasn't too much schoolwork left haha. But I watched all of both these shows those 3 months...I was a bit obsessed if you can't tell. But the episodes for friends were only 20ish minutes long! I would 100% recommend both of these shows though, amazing pieces of work.  10/1

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my blog! As a writer, I know that finding inspiration for my stories can be a bit tricky at times. When you need ideas, they never seem to come! In fact, it's a bit like automatic flushing toilets. I don't know how it is for everybody else (maybe it's just me!) but the toilets always seem to flush when you DON'T want them to, and at the most inopportune moments. But then, when you need them to flush, they never seem to work! It's a bit like finding inspiration because when you don't need to find it, it just comes to you! But then, when you have writer's block and you NEED that inspiration, it just disappears like it was never there in the first place. This is why I decided to create this blog: Get Up And Out. It's all about trying new things, and perhaps finding some inspiration along the way. Did you know that trying new things challenges your brain, and helps to prevent Alzheimer's? Plus, it can be super fun as well. I'll
