I'm in a dorm where most people left for holidays. Open to suggestions. Be creative...

Die of hypothermia after drinking brandy to try and warm yourself up, unaware that it does the opposite.

*edits*

Err that was perhaps a bit morbid. How's about keep the snow that's falling in your freezer, with which to surprise them when they get back from their hols.

Never seen a snow storm (I live the nice tropics where lightning blows up electrical equipment)

It's 25 C inside. I'll die on the way tho, if I try to go to a liquor store.

Write about it in your blog!

OK. Well then, I suggest you wrap up warm before venturing to the world beyond.

Get very very drunk, or take drugs if you prefer though i wouldn't recommend it.
Or you could make clever conversation on here.
Make plans to take over the world, then give it up when you realise there's nothing left to conquer.
Have a snowball fight.
Make a gaint snowman in your image then try to clone it then again so when other people come to visit, they run away.
Could go running through the snow storm and make bets with other people on the chances of you living through it.
Write an essay on why you love the US government, then write one on why you hate it and compare the two.
start making lots of weapons and when someone challenges you you say "i am the law!".
Start your own market economy with whoever's left then when they're not looking steal all their money and give it to charity.
go insane.

build a snow fort... hide behind it and peg campus security as they go past! Always a good bit of fun assuming you can outrun them (Or they are good humored enough to throw snowballs back).

Build snowman caricatures of your roommates and neighbors.

As above but this time having an orgy.

Make snow devils/angels!

sit tight and make sure you have warm blankets in case the power goes off.

If in a car make sure you have blankets stashed in the car and some water. Stay with your car until the storm is over...Worst thing you can do during a snow storm in a car is leave the car...like on a water you stick with your boat.

Or if your building is big enough, roll a 12 pound bowling ball down the garbage shoot!

Find every single other person that hasn't left for the holidays, and have a MASSIVE (or small, I suppose) snowball fight. Then have a party inside a huge snow fort.

That's what I'm doing.

Godspeed.

Write a book about your experiences in an empty dorm hall. Fail to convince an editor to publish it. Become an alcoholic over your one missed chance at fame and wealth. Write a book ab...

make snow ice cream?

Put on "Midnight, the stars, and you" and pretend you're Jack Torrance in The Shining. Make sure to say hi to Lloyd.

Where I went to college, a snow storm meant that the giant dick+balls statues made out of snow the next day.

Sit inside and go on NSG! What, are you deluded?

Two words Snowball fight. Huge snowforts with icicle spike in the fron wall. Huge snow ball reserves. Lots of friends. Total snow war.

play video games ...or porn
:p

Taken from Jarhead: Masturbate, read letters from family, more masturbation, clean your gun, more masturbation.

LOL yeah, that happens in milder weather tho.

Teach a man to build a fire and he'll be warm for the holidays. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

fill a bowl with snow and pour on maple syrup. Eat.
Hot chocolate and a good movie.
Lots of booze.
masturbate
snowball fight/sledding
make new friends in your dorm going door to door with cookies.

Break into the room of someone you don't like... or someone you do...

Turn off their heat then open all their windows (be nice and remove anything from the room that would freeze first, like bottles of lotion or soda, and store it somewhere else) making sure that there is nothing right in the way that would suffer if it got wet in the process. Bring in a lot of snow and make a snowman. For extra points, make it look like someone you know. For double points, once you have made it, mist it with water so it will freeze into a solid block and be more difficult to remove. Make sure that on the way out, you put a towel down by the bottom of the door to keep any warm air from being drawn in and melting your project prematurely.

Eat the snow.

How long does snow last in your parts? Here, it is a blizzard if we have more than an inch for a few days. Usually, we just sit it out.

Curl up with someone you find attractive, or a good book. Whichever is handier.

Or both!

Or both!

:D Depends on the book, then!

I'll refrain from suggesting the obvious.

Snowstorms are a nice time to snuggly up under a blanket with someone, or a bunch of little someones, have some hot chocolate, and caramel popcorn, and watch a move. It's just a good time period to spend with your family doing something bright, because the snowstorm can be a bit depressing. So crafts, baking, whatever...but something active. Make eggnog. The real kind. Then drink it. Dance. Pass out. Repeat.

You should eat all the food in your house, starting with any cookies, chocolates or left-over chinese and working your way down to celery and such things. That way, if the heat gives out you will have built up a layer of fat sufficient to survive until rescue workers come.

Make a snow fortress...Fill people's freezers with snow...

Shovel, as is so often the case up here in AK.

I like to bury puppies and kittens in snow tunnels.

Not so much "bury", but it is fun with cats. It's fun to watch them start running underneath them when it partially collapses on top of 'em. Kinda like watching underground nuke tests from the surface.

Wtf?:upyours:

Zi, cats regularly run out into the snow when you chase them with the vacuum cleaner. Don't be such a prude. :p

That's rather...unChristian of you.

I didn't know his faith was so cat-oriented!
Considering all the varying forms of blasphemy and heretical fun we have, ckinda weird that cats would be the straw. *shrug*
Might please him to know that both "my" cats are at my side as i type this, happy, warm, healthy, not buried in snow.

He's a closet Egyptian.

Drink a cup of Tanna and wait for it to pass. There's worse things than that. My time with the 597th has tought me that.

I get in a big, comfy chair with lots of blankets and a kitten, and read a book. Where applicable, I also bitch about how the locals have never seen snow in my life (as I do when I live in DC).

He's a closet Egyptian.My thoughts exactly. It really would explain a lot.

I got 6 inches in a half hour here.. total accumulation of 1.3 feet in two days.

The cancellation line for schools is literally ringing off the hook here at work.

Igloos and cider!

Go out and make as many angels in the snow as you can.
Stop when frostbite sets in. The record is 214.

Oh the smut-pertunities.

I believe birth rates rise measurably nine months after a big snow storm, but you did say most people have left, so I guess that's out.
