The Dos And Don'ts Of Spring Break

The Dos And Don'ts Of Spring Break

If there's one thing about college that students can't wait for, it's Spring Break. Whether it's Hawaii, Cabo, South Padre or Gulf Shores, it's bound to be the best week of the school year. Memories are made, stories will be told, and your life will be forever changed.

Do add all your friends on the find your friends app










This is the biggest, most important one, because it is necessary when there is 1000 drunk college kids on the beach.


Do drink and rally everyday

Whats the point of going on a spring break then anyway without a little drinking? Also, being sober around drunk people can be really annoying.


Do take a lot of pictures


Memories fade but pictures will always be there.


Do use protection, whether it's sun tan lotion or... some other forms of protection

Pack it in the faney pack. Your skin will thank you, and so will your parents for not making them grandparents yet.


Do write a "If found call #" on your arm

Odds are it'll fade throughout the day but at least it's something.


Do bring aloe vera

No matter how hard you try, you will get burnt.



Don't pass out first

Don't be that person. Know your limits.


Don't run off with people you just met who you think are your new best friends

They may look and act like you and may be your "soulmate at a different university," but don't trust anyone but your real squad.


Don't try to be a champ and go hard every night

Your liver will thank you.


Don't go anywhere alone. Always walk around with someone you know

There are some douche bag guys who will try to take you home and take advantage of you, so always go with a group of friends wherever you walk.


Don't get caught if you're underage

Not saying underage drinking is OK, but obviously it's bound to happen. So be smart, and don't get caught.


Whatever you do don't get arrested

Going in front of a judge in your bikini is not fun.


Spring Break is supposed to be the best week of your life in college. You get to do things that no one will find out about. Just be smart, but most importantly have fun.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
