I have had the hardest time thinking about what to write this week and then it hit me! Why don’t I talk about how to have fun on a college budget. This idea sparked when I was hanging out with two of my sorority sisters. We were doing a bunch of fun things and I kept telling them, “guys, I don’t know what to write about this week!”. They responded with, “write about our day!” And welp, Mccall and Tati... this one is for you!
Here are the top three things to do in a college town while on a college budget!
1. Go see a play
Being in a small town you have to get creative with what you do. Luckily, one of my sorority sisters is in a play this weekend. The play was only $5!! That’s $5 to get out of your house and $5 to support a sister/friend! So if you know there’s a play going on in your town, GO CHECK IT OUT! It’s cheap and it’s something to do!
2. The Reservoir
So going to school in southern utah, there are a lot of easy ways to get outdoors! For example, I live 30 minutes away from one of the prettiest hikes! But what I want to talk about is what all of us call “the res”. The Res is just a man made lake that’s literally in the town. People like to fish, paddle board, and tan during the summer here! It’s a 3 minute drive from my apartment which makes it super easy! Find a cool part in your town and go!!
3. Go to college events
This blog is about college so did you really think I wasn’t gonna mention this? Yes, go to college events. Some may cost money but most of them are free! Yes! FREE! Take advantage of the free events.
let me know in the comments what YOU do with your friends while on a college budget.
I like that you focused on activities that are cheap in Southern Utah. I think biggest complaint I hear about doing anything is the money. I appreciate you mentioning the plays, last fall I purchased a Shakespeare season festival pass which turned out to be fairly inexpensive due to the student discount they offer, I highly recommend doing that.
