12 Things To Do Over Spring Break This Year

Spring Break will be here in a matter of days, and we are all ready to collapse onto our pillow-laden beds and wake up three days later. However, what are you going to do with those leftover days before break ends? Here are a few ideas to keep your break full of excitement:

1. Bake something new.

Try making donuts at home, or maybe this Maple Belgian Waffle Cake. OMG.

2. Watch all the Tina Fey and/or Amy Poehler movies.


Or just watch Parks and Rec and 30 Rock. Or both.

3. Try to DIY something you’ve pinned on Pinterest.


Emphasis on something, not things. If you think you’re going to complete every project you’ve liked, I guarantee that you will look at your 500+ pin board, stare at it for two minutes, and close your laptop and take a nap instead. START SMALL.

4. Buy something from ban.do.

They’re my favorite brand, so just do it.

5. Go on a road trip.


Drive to the biggest city near you, or if you’re already cosmopolitan, step outside! Take advantage of the coolest places near you before the time comes to move out of your parent’s house.

6. Challenge yourself to eat nothing but clean foods for the whole break.


Just kidding. Go eat a cookie.

7. Go to the library.


Read those books that have been piling up during the semester.

8.Help somebody else.


You don’t have to formally volunteer if that’s not your thing, but check to see if those neighbors need help moving in, or if there’s anything your grandparents need done around the house.

9. Choreograph a dance.


You might be laughing, but I guarantee you aren’t having as much fun as I am.

10. Clean your room and clear out your closet.


It. Feels. So. GOOD.

11. Try a new workout routine.


Try Zumba or Hot Yoga. Heck, pull out your old Wii and unlock a new dance routine on Just Dance.

12. Update your resume and get those internships.


Once you’ve cleaned up your resume and written a cover letter, apply, apply, apply. Even if you don’t think you’re gonna get it, it can’t hurt to get your name out there.

Buck up, kiddos! Just a little bit longer (cue the Jonas Brothers) when you get back to campus.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
