Spring Break Is Over: Here's the Bright Side

We all know the feeling of coming back from a break, then counting down the days till the next one. Currently, we're coming off the tail-end of one of the most coveted breaks of all, spring break. Spring break is the one we've been planning for since September and counting down since January. Sadly, friends, spring break 2016 has come to an end. Although coping with this with won't be easy, I'm here to help you mourn the loss. Here's a few things we all... at some point... maybe... briefly, missed during our SB2k16 shenanigans.

1. Food

Whether your go-to preference is queso from Taq, terrapin dip from Pauley’s, late night downtown Waffle House, or any local favorite, there is some kind of dish you've been craving during your time away. Now that you're back, indulge.

2. Socializing


Although you had plenty to do during your spring break endeavors, you can take comfort in the fact that there also is a lot to do here. Whether it's going out on a thirsty Thursday, getting ice cream with your pals, or crafting with your srat sisters, there are many options to help you get out of your post-spring break funk.

3. Friends (and crushes)

You were with a lot of your closest friends during the break, but there are also others that traveled to different places. So bask in the glory and get excited about getting your entire crew back together again to share your crazy spring break stories. Plus, now that you’re back in town, you get to continue your baewatch for 2016 (and find a last-minute formal date).

4. Extra-Curriculars

Philanthropies, intramural sports, Greek life events, and clubs with their weekly meetings are back in your planner. While to some this may not be the most fun, it is nice to be back on a schedule. Plus, being busy helps you feel productive. This also ties in with #3, because you get to see your favorite people at the meetings and practices!

5. Schoolwork!!!

Just kidding.

However, you do get to see that cutie from your geography class again (wink wink).

Rest in peace, spring break 2016, you were good to us. Bring on the rest of the semester (and the rest of the Netflix marathons)!


Bonus: SPRING PARTIES

It's the most wonderful time of the year, spring party season! Showercap, Cowboy Ball, Lost, Derby Days, Bowery Ball, Native Weekend, Shakedown, Beta Lei, Tau Tug, Luau, and many other fun events await!

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
