As fears of the growing COVID-19 outbreak spread across the nation, universities have moved to cancel study abroad programs, impose travel restrictions over spring break, and heavily limit organized campus events and gatherings.

Finals might be frightful, but the holidays in New York are delightful. The few weeks between Thanksgiving and winter break can be a stressful time for students.

I remember a few years ago, back in Seattle, going to a movie theater with a friend and not-so-subtly complaining about how expensive the food was (this coming from a person who still buys the kids ticket whenever she can to save money).

Movie theater popcorn is no doubt the best popcorn. I thanked her, handed the ticket over at the concessions stand, and brought my free popcorn into the theater to share with my friends.

October is here, which means midterm season has begun! Nevertheless, as you work hard and (hopefully) ace your exams, you’re bound to have some free time.

Practice self-care in this finals season by getting enough food, rest, socialization, and free $wag.
