Your guide to celebrating October 5 2012
Skip to all 18 daysWake up the inner adventurer in you by exploring the architecture in your city. Take a stroll downtown or visit a local museum to appreciate the beauty and history behind the buildings. As you marvel at the structures, make a mental note to do something nice for a stranger. It could be as simple as holding the door open or paying for someone’s coffee. Spread positivity by getting funky and dancing to your favorite tunes. Channel your inner James Bond by dressing up suavely and enjoying a martini, shaken not stirred. Take it easy like a Rhode Islander and prioritize your child’s health by engaging in outdoor activities and cooking nutritious meals. Declutter your space and shop sustainably on Consignment Day. Be nice to everyone you meet, and surprise a loved one with a bouquet of balloons. Treat yourself to a cozy staycation at a bed & breakfast, while listening to military podcasts and indulging in a delicious apple betty dessert. Charge your car sustainably and advocate for a world free of prostitution and bullying. Thank a teacher for their dedication on World Teachers Day, and reflect on ways to create a more inclusive and civil society.
