Last year I had three tests in a row right after the break, so I was all like:\r\n\r\n\"\"<\/a>\r\n\r\nNeedless to say, between studying and volunteering for Alternative Reading Week<\/a>, I had very little time to get out to any events happening on campus or check out the city surrounding it. A real shame! But I\u2019m happy to report that I lucked out this year and will definitely be taking advantage of some free days to get active and have fun. Yep, this year my attitude towards Reading Week is more like\u2026\r\n\r\n\"\"<\/a>\r\n\r\nHa-ha. So if you feel the same way, or you need some study break ideas to get you through the inevitable reading that awaits you, then check out some of the ideas and events I\u2019ve listed below!\r\n\r\nExplore the gym in res\r\n<\/strong>With many students gone for the break, if you are sticking around then now\u2019s a great time to scope out the gym at your residence, if it\u2019s got one! I know for sure that Trinity<\/a>, Chestnut<\/a>, and Innis<\/a>\u00a0have exercise rooms that their students may use. You can sneak in a workout during a long day of studying, since you won\u2019t even have to leave the building!\r\n\r\nSkate at Nathan Phillips Square\r\n<\/strong>This is a popular spot not far from campus, at Queen and Bay<\/a>. It\u2019s been on my to-do list since last year and I STILL have not made it out\u2026but maybe I\u2019ll finally have a chance to check it out with a friend.\r\n\r\nRecharge at Harvest Noon or Hart House\r\n<\/strong>The cute\u00a0little caf\u00e9 will be closed during the week, but they will be hosting some special\r\nfood workshops<\/a>\u00a0in the evenings!\u00a0I\u2019m talking about chocolate<\/strong> and coffee, bread-baking<\/strong>, and an interesting sensory awareness dinner<\/strong>. There\u2019s also a Community Kitchen<\/a>\r\ndinner at Hart House that sounds like it will be delicious!\r\n\r\nHike around High Park\r\n<\/strong>One of my favourite places<\/a>\u00a0off campus...it\u2019s close for me and I have been walking\/running through the trails here many times.\u00a0 It\u2019s super easy to get to from downtown \u2013 literally right across the street from High Park Subway Station.<\/a>\r\n\r\nOf course, don\u2019t forget that the Athletic Centre<\/a> will still be open<\/strong> every day except Family Day. Hart House<\/a> will be open all week too! And if you\u2019re free tonight, come watch the Blues Basketball team<\/strong> take on Ryerson as both Varsity an intramural athletes highlight the Athlete Ally initiative<\/a> that has been taking place all week!\r\n\r\nHope you all have a fun week!!\r\n\r\n-Lesia\r\n\r\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
