Well everyone, we’ve made it! Christmas music, cold weather, a sudden craving for hot chocolate. . . we’re just a few weeks away from Christmas break, but unfortunately we have to get through finals first. Finals week is stressful and basically reduces us all to robots who sleep, eat, and study, so if you find yourself down with the holiday blues while you’re studying away in O’Neill, be sure to check out these great spots in Boston for a little pick-me-up:
Events Around Boston to Get You in the Christmas Spirit!
Classic Harbor Line Boston
Take a break from all the craziness on shore and head out on the harbor for a Christmas party at sea! Live entertainment and great food will draw you in, and the view of the city from the water is unforgettable.

Miracle Pop-Up Bar
Every holiday season this hotel’s bar in the basement converts into a Christmas wonderland! Complete with Christmas-themed cocktails and bartenders in ugly holiday sweaters, this is a can’t miss spot for a night on the town.

Blink!
Everyone in Boston knows this one: a lights show that goes on every night at Faneuil Hall.
