6 Things To Do If You Aren't Going Away For Spring Break

In This Article:

I'm lucky enough to be going away for spring break this year with some of my friends. Usually, though, I'm stuck as home looking for things to do and making fun without being away.

1. Spend time with your friends and family

Instagram

Being on spring break is the perfect time to spend some quality time with your friends and family, especially if you're a college student who doesn't go home much.

2. Work

Instagram

I know... who wants to work while they're on break?? If you really have nothing else to do and have a preexisting job, it can be smart to try and get some hours in and make some money.

3. Get your sleeping/eating/workout schedule in order.

Instagram

If you're like me, your sleeping/eating/workout schedule can get fucked during school. Having a week or so off is the perfect time to get your schedules back in order so you can be the best you can be when break is over.

4. Catch up on any books or TV shows

Instagram

Finally start that show you've been putting off until you have some free time. Here's your free time!!

5. Go around your hometown!

Instagram

I'm sure there are places you haven't been to and new places to discover!!

6. Relax...finally.

Instagram

Take some time for yourself and try and forget about the stress of school and anything else going on. Your mental health is most important.

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.
