Get Out!

Tired of Widener?

1. Lazerzone Laser Tag

Release some of that pent-up stress in a laser tag arena (20 minutes: $12, 70 minutes: $20). When you get tired from your laser-play, go try your hand at karaoke ($5 per person), which is located in the same building. Those with any energy left over can head over to the bungee run ($5 per person).

3. Boston Common

An oldie, but a goodie. Beautiful fountains, rich history, endless fields, and a lively atmosphere make this much more than just your average public park. And it’s absolutely free! Go there—and bring your Life Sci notes if you have to.

Need to relax after finishing that paper? How about an expert spa treatment that doesn’t put stress on your wallet? G-Spa’s got your back. “Quickie” massages are 25 bucks a pop, and they also provide manicures for those overworked typing fingers.
