Spring break has finally arrived! You've been waiting for months, ticking off the days since the semester started. The question now becomes, what will you do with all of your blissful time away from school? Well here is a list of 10 things you should not regret doing over spring break if, like me, you don't have any big plans.
1. Staying home!
While your besties are off traveling the country and even the world, it is perfectly acceptable to stay with your family at home. While your friends are exploring all the corners of the globe, you can explore all the corners of your house and let that sense of nostalgia overwhelm you in your childhood home.
get all that college work done. You are definitely entitled to sleep in till

off of school.
4. Netflix - everyone’s favorite past time.
You know you have that huge list of new shows and movies to get through, and what better time to escape to a fantasy world than spring break, when you have no obligations.
5. You can always hang out with your family too!
There’s absolutely no shame in that. You might even need to spend some quality time with your parents and siblings who you haven’t seen in weeks or months in order to recharge your social battery before returning to college.
6. Posting fake Insta pics to make your life look more exciting.
If you’re feeling particularly left out, you can always post photo-shopped Instagram pictures to give the appearance of being anywhere but home. Who knows maybe you really did climb Mt. Everest or walked with lions in the Serengeti. If you’ve got pictures, you’ve got proof!
7. Living vicariously through your friends who actually did go on vacation.
Go ahead and spend hours on Instagram and Facebook pouring over your friends’ real pictures of their fabulous vacations. Maybe if you have a good enough imagination you can pretend you’re sipping margaritas on the beach next to them.
8. Read a book.
It’s ok. Let your nerd freak fly! Thanks to the imagery of the written word you can escape the confinement of your four bedroom walls.
9. Learn a new skill.
Pick up juggling! Come on. You know you want to. Who doesn’t want to learn how to entertain yourself and others while learning a clown’s trade secret?
10. Finally, connect with your other peeps from high school who realized they were either too broke or too lazy to go anywhere else for spring break.
Make your staycation into a real party by catching up with old friends who also stayed in town. You must have a lot to catch up on!
