Top 5 Ways to Celebrate St. Patrick's Day

As the hustle and bustle of 2nd semester gets into full swing. Holidays become a time of relaxation for the students working day and night in the classroom. As the spring months begin the first holiday back on college campuses is St. Patrick's Day. Originally created as feast day St. Patrick's Day has always been about relaxing with family and friends for some good fun.

1. Decorating
- St. Patty's Day has become know for its green's and gold's. Clovers and gold coins cover the landscape. The fun atmosphere that has encompassed the holiday allows for sparkles and shine. As the luck of the Irish covers your environment.

2. Irish music
-I would say that most are not looking to listen to Irish music on a Sunday drive but this Saturday you just might. While it may not be the most popular music the holiday spirit fills all the parties.

3.Food
- It seems that every holiday now revolves around its food. A day that however began as the day of the feast it only seems fitting that the food for this holiday is so unique. Green pancakes, Shamrock Shakes, green beers, and green ham have all become staples of the mid march holiday.

4. Parades
- What holiday isn't complete without a parade. The green flies as leprechauns walk the streets. Gold coins come hurling off floats. While it may not seem like the most in sync tradition of St. Patrick's Day it is still a time of celebration and how better to celebrate than with a parade.

5. Traditions and Movies
-The Luck of The Irish has become the equivalent of The Grinch to the younger generation. The Disney movie dives deep into the leprechaun spirit on the day of green. Aired continuously throughout the day it'd be hard not to find at least one person making it an annual tradition.
