Spring semester is always my favorite. Although there aren't as many holidays and breaks as fall semester there are 10 things that make me look forward to it each year.
1. The warmth is coming.
It may seem so far away and impossible but trust me, the warmth will be here before we know it.
2. You have a fresh start.
You don't have to stress about the classes that kept you up until 3 am last semester, they're over!
3. New semester, new people.
You never know who you will have classes with, who you will pass on your way to class, who will be in the dining halls when you are there. All of these fresh faces are opportunities for new friends.
4. You are one semester closer to graduating.
This one makes me a little nervous BUT sometimes I feel like my college career is never ending and my classes are driving me crazy. So this is a reminder that with each passing semester I am approaching adulthood. (YIKES)
5. Better weather, more things to do.
As the weather starts to clear up and get nicer people are more inclined to want to go outside and make the most of the day. You will see everyone out on the "green" or your campus common area, going for hikes, and being in all around better moods!
6. My birthday.
This probably doesn't concern any of you at all BUT I will be turning 20 this semester and entering a new decade of my life so this had to make the list.
7. You know what works and what doesn't.
You've had a semester or so to get down a routine that works for you and you also have found out what doesn't work. This semester you don't have to waste as much time trying to do so.
8. New goals.
You have hopefully set some new goals for yourself for 2017 that you can now put to the test.
9. New music, movies, and trends.
Not only is it a new semester, but it's a new year. This means there will be all new media moves, music, movies, trends, and everything in between.
10. You are still thriving.
Although you may not think so, making it to another semester of college is a blessing. You have your health, your education, and your sanity! Go make the most of it, some people don't get the chance to.
