Whether you’re going to the snowy mountains of Colorado or the sunny beaches of Cozumel, every Spring Break has a few things in common: alcohol, freedom, and a lot of people from different schools.All three of those things create an insane (and boarder line illegal) environment that allows, if not encourages, the most unbelievable things to happen.
Girls have been dieting, tanning and hitting the gym since December to fit into that $100 piece of cloth that we call a Victoria’s Secret bathing suit. One reason we put all of that effort into looking our best is so that we can look awesome while sipping Mai Tai’s on a beach. However, the main reason we do it is so we can catch the attention of one of the many boys that ventured to the same Spring Break destination.
Let’s face it, we see the same boys on our campus all the time. Yes we’re excited for the fruity drinks, white sand beaches, and a week off from school, but the thing that really gets us hyped up is the well-known fact that a plethora of new boys is in our future. It’s a whole new pool of boys and we can’t wait to dive in headfirst. Floaties are optional and I’ll probably be doing a cannon ball.
Here are the 6 guys that you will definitely meet this Spring Break:
1. The bartender
He’s been mixing your drinks and listening to your off key singing all week. He has this adorable half smile and a wink that makes you melt. He lifts up his shirt to wipe his chiseled jaw and show off his perfectly sculpted abs while he’s pouring shots. He’s every Spring Break girl’s dream, but that is all he will ever be. He’s untouchable behind his bar of greatness. In a week, you’ll be sitting in class and he will be flipping bottles and smiling at a new group of hot girls in bikinis.
2. The guy fresh off a break up
He will flirt with you all night and talk about how awesome the single life is. He’s actually really nice because he just got out a relationship and his mind is still programmed for “boyfriend mode”. However, after one to many beers he completely loses it and rants about how women are terrible creatures. You should probably cut him off at this point because if he continues to drink he will start to get depressed and even cry about how much he misses “her”.
3. The local guy
This guy knows all of the local hot spots and will tell you were to meet him up later that night for the best happy hour. He’s effortlessly cool as he punches his number into your phone and promises to catch up with you later. Later that night when you and your girlfriends show up at the bar he suggested, you will find that he’s surrounded by at least 3 other groups of girls that he told the exact same thing to.
4. The arrogant hot guy from another school
Probably my favorite character to encounter on Spring Break. He is there for one reason only: to get with as many girls as possible during the week. He’s loud and obnoxious. He’s most likely in a frat and he’s got the biggest arms you’ve ever seen. If you’re one of the girls that he sets his sights on, beware. If you’re not, just grab a beer, sit back, and watch him work because it is nothing short of entertaining.
5. The guy that goes to your school and always secretly loved you
It might be a combination of the tequila and romantic EDM music blaring in the bar, but for whatever reason this guy is going to spill his heart and soul for you around night 3 of Spring Break. It will take you by surprise at first, but then you’ll think about all those nights he drove you home or watched you cry about your ex and it will all make sense. If you feel the same way then congrats! Meet your next boyfriend. If you don’t, just offer to buy the next shot as a thank you and pretend it didn’t happen tomorrow.
6. The compulsive liar
One night he’s an up and coming DJ, the next he’s a pre med student that is going to be a brain surgeon. He will say pretty much anything to get your attention and once he has it, he will create the most interesting and unbelievable stories to keep it. It’s fun for like 20 minutes.
Clearly there are a lot of options. Some worse than others, but hey, it’s slim pickings for a single girl on Spring Break. Whichever guy you choose is bound to make your vacation way more fun. Personally, I’ve got my eyes set on the bartender. You know what they say; everything gets hotter when the sun goes down.
