Viking Voices showcases student opinions on different issues by asking them different questions. This week we asked students: “How do you cope with the gloomy and dark days in Washington?”
“I like to, when I have the time, read or watch Parks and Rec[reation] or things like that to just stay cheery.”
“I lock myself in my room and make music and complain to my girlfriend about how dark and gloomy it is. I listen to happy music to take away the dark and gloominess of the outside.”
“Well I like to get outside and I like to listen to dark and gloomy music as well, which seems to have the opposite effect, I just embrace it actually.”
“Well I’m usually on campus all day so when it gets dark and sad I just go home because my roommates are there and it’s just kind of nice to go home and take a break from everything.”
