The start of Spring brings with it a flush of flowers, perfect weather, and the overall sense of calmness knowing that in just one more month, school will be left long behind. However, the end of the school year means finals are just around the corner, causing me to desperately need a weekend full of relaxation, good company, and fun. Below are five things I would do if I had an entire day to myself where I could do anything and everything my heart desired.

1. I would begin my day with an amazing and Instagram-worthy acai bowl from The Good Berry.

Acai bowls are one of my favorite things to eat when I'm craving something sweet but also healthy-plus, they're just absolutely beautiful to look at and photograph! One of my favorite places to get an acai bowl is at The Good Berry located on Madison Street. The Good Berry allows you to choose from an assortment of toppings so as to personalize your acai bowl, while also offering a wide variety of smoothies, toast, salads, and sandwiches. The fact that The Good Berry is extremely close to campus and decorated so cutely would make it an amazing way to start my day!

2. After breakfast I would go to the Maclay Gardens State Park for a walk and photo-op!

Walking and taking photos are amongst some of my favorite things to do, so the Maclay Gardens State Park is the perfect place to venture to. The gardens include a reflection pool, two short walking paths, a walled garden, a secret garden, and countless flowers and trees, making it a picturesque background for a relaxing stroll.

3. I would make time for a quick mid-afternoon nap in my eno.

My body is the type of body that DEMANDS naps. If my day's too busy to squeeze one in, I become overly cranky to anyone and anything that comes into contact with me-horrible I know. Sadly, I know that as soon as finals come around I'll have no time for naps, so my perfect day will definitely have to have one.

Go to the movies and buy ALL of the candies.

One thing I've missed since coming to school was going to the local movie theater and seeing all of the newest movies-the good and the bad. Watching movies has always been a major part of my upbringing, and for some unknown reason, I don't mind paying the absurd amount of money to see them in theaters. Going to the movies and eating junk food would be an amazing way to relax my mind and forget all things school.

Attempt to finish an entire milkshake from the Sugar Rush Bar.

I am a sugar connoisseur, especially when it comes to over-the-top milkshakes. The Sugar Rush Bar has some of the most amazing and extravagant milkshakes I've ever seen, making them the perfect treat to end the perfect day. If you're not a fan of milkshakes, the Sugar Rush Bar has homemade ice cream, sundaes, and floats, and so much more!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
