Ten Inventive Ways to Keep Warm on a Student Budget:

I'm freezing, and I'm bored. Happy Procrastination!

1) Wear all your clothes at once.

You know that grumpy housemate who never wants the heating on and just says 'put another jumper on!'? Well do it. Take their clothes, too. Pants especially. And then lunge, Joey style.

2) Stay in bed all day. ;)

You know what I'm talking about. And you know it makes sense.

3) Hotbox your tiny student bathroom.

Also great if you have trouble sleeping. Not great for your food budget.

4) Get blotto.

Scientifically speaking this is incorrect. But after a certain point, you stop feeling cold.
Now how about combining some of the other ideas for extra festive crunk-times?

5) DANCE!

'Single Ladies', 'Wuthering Heights', 'Jump Around'... Some things I just can't sit still to. Get a playlist and get yo' groove thang on. Just shut the curtains, okay? Nobody needs to see that.

6) Clean the house.

Alright, so it doesn't exactly sound fun. But I ALWAYS get a sweat on hoovering (TMI?). And you get that smug sense of satisfaction that you can make your housemate take the bins out/clean the loo because you've already done your part for this week's schedule.

7) Squeeze everybody on the same sofa.

LOTR marathon? New Peep Show? It's all about the body heat!

8) Take up knitting.

Make a blanket. The more you knit, the warmer you get.

9) Make a roast.

Keep the oven door open when you're finished. Eat in the kitchen. Mmmm, stuffing-scented air freshener...

10) Indoor BBQ!

Candles? Check. Marshmallows? Check. Fun? CHECK!

Frosty kisses! xxx
