So many college students dream of going on the big, fancy, expensive spring break. The sun, the sand, the alcohol. It's the perfect trifecta. Except sometimes, you need a break from the break itself.

Spring break is supposed to be just that. A break. A break from the stress, from the people, from all of it. It's supposed to be for relaxing and rebooting for the next few stressful, late nights. But instead, lots of college students end up going out and partying from dusk till dawn. And come back from break, needing a break.

Now, I am not saying I would hate going to the beach for a few days with my best friends. But I'd rather do it where I can lay on the beach without getting beer spilled all over me or being sounded by a thousand plus blacked out college goers. I'd rather be in my home with my family, sleeping in my own bed, eating my own food, hanging out with my dog, and actually relaxing before hell month begins. I like to hang out with my family instead of getting shit faced for the whole break. That might be different than the typical college student, but it's what is best.

Sometimes, people need a break from the craziness and sometimes, people can't afford to go to Cancun or South Padre for the week/weekend. What happened to the, "I'm a broke college student"? I can hardly afford to eat off campus every other week.

Yes, it might be exciting for the first day or so with all the drinking and the craziness, but, I think that people can have fun with others without getting trashed every single day.

There's a video going around on Twitter's Illinois State Barstool's page that encompasses the definition of spring break. This video absolutely made me cringe and I don't understand how any person can enjoy this. Is this really what people enjoy on spring break? Why would you ever want this?

I just think that it is so much more relaxing to not have to worry about all the things to pack, how much money I can spend, and make sure myself or my friends don't drink too much and get alcohol poisoning. I can lay around my house and the only thing I really have to worry about is what I'm going to have for lunch that day and that's about it.

So, if you want, go party it up wherever in the world you are. Don't come back to school saying how much you need a nap.
