Sometimes one can hit a slump, because it’s only natural to get sad on non-holiday days during the winter. Here are a few activities to engage in to beat potential break boredom.

1. Bungee jumping for apples: a daredevil twist on the classic fall activity of simply bobbing for those apples.

2. Make those childhood dreams come true: remove all the turkey guts yourself!

3. Home-make those mini marshmallows for hot chocolate- parties galore, you’d be invited.

4. Kiss your favorite food at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve.

5. Fall asleep before 8 p.m. Christmas Eve, that way you know you won’t be awake when Santa and his reindeer come, the same goes for every night of Hanukkah.

6. Bake cookies and use cutouts so they’re shaped inappropriately for the holiday season (swimsuits, palm trees, etc.) You’d thoroughly convince yourself it’s not ten degrees outside.

7. Bike everywhere on the icy roads, you’ll never know if you’ll slip or not on your city bike (there’s your adventure!)

8. Pretend you can never hear bells ringing so children cry after they watch Polar Express (ruin their childhoods, how tempting).

9. Act like Scrooge because we all know he’s the man.

10. Tell your friends you want to play a gift swapping game, then “forget” all your presents for them (more for you!)

11. See how many days you can stay awake for, before you become delirious. Isn’t that what break is for, anyway?

12. Open all your presents the night before you’re going to receive them, then rewrap them all because surprises are stupid.

13. Impersonate a turkey, or a pig, or a cow; any animal really. Your family will not thank you.

14. After the first perfect snowfall, make snow demons because angels are too angelic.

15. Tell the kids you babysit that Santa isn’t real. Neither is the tooth fairy. Once again, good ways to ruin childhoods.

Contrary to popular belief, bucket lists don’t have to be long term, so take a chance, and do something ca-razy this holiday season.
