5 Make or Break Tips for SB16
Student City

With the stress of mid terms over, or quickly coming to an end for some, it's finally time to start mentally prepping yourself for SB16. No matter where in the world you're going, from Belize to Gulf Shores, these five tips below could be the difference between a spring break you pray to forget, and a spring break you make sure to remember.


1. Keep a charger in your bag at all times.

There is nothing more frightening than getting lost on a beach jam-packed with people. Make sure your phone is charged at all times! Plus, you're going to want your phone to take pictures. #instalove



2. Don't skip out on the sunscreen.

This tip isn't too difficult for me to follow #vampirepale. But for those who wouldn't dare walk on the board walk any shade lighter than mocha, keep in mind: tans might be beautiful but skin cancer sure isn't.



3. Hydrate

Sun + Booze + Little to No Sleep = Disaster.

Have a bottle of water in your bag at all times. Keep in mind that plastic water bottles can get over heated, poisoning the water, so make sure its in a cool place.



4. Don't accept drinks from strangers.

You wouldn't do it at home, don't do it in PCB.



5. Have at least $20 bucks tucked away for emergencies.

You never know where life may take you. Keeping 20 bucks put away for an unplanned taxi, food, a first aid kit, etc is important.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
