Spring Break Could Not Come Soon Enough

We all deserve a break from this hectic thing we call life.

Spring Break Could Not Come Soon Enough
Rebel Circus

I think we are all to that point in the semester where we have lost all desire to go to class and are calculating what we can get on the next test to just pass at this point. The library has become our second home and stained sweatpants have become our daily attire. Weekends are spent catching up on sleep along with the work you couldn't get done during the week because it is all just flooding on us. Our to-do lists have become longer than the amount of hours in the day. As we sit around talking about how much we have to do and get overwhelmed, but yet we still continue to procrastinate. As a college student, we all could us a break from this workload and our campus in general.

A change of scenery would do us all of a little good. Let alone it might bring our sanity back because at this point in the semester it is looking like the walking dead with all the zombies of college students who are running on -5 hours of sleep. I am questioning my major on the daily and wondering the importance of school. I just want to dip my toes in those salty waters and have the sun rays brighten up my pasty skin. There isn't much beach therapy in Valdosta, Georgia, so I have be dying for it. I just want to take a moment and not have to worry about tests, meetings, work, or anything school demands from us and have a week to just relax for once.

I realize Spring Break will probably fly by faster than you can say blink, but I intend to try and savor every moment of it because we all deserve it! it is already halfway through the semester please explain to why I am not already on a break because I needed it like three weeks ago when every other school had off in the county besides college. So please Spring Break embrace me with your presence soon enough so I don't have to continuously go to bed at four in the morning than get up at eight.

And he said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat.

Mark 6:31

Let my life be more than the hours I have spent crashing at the library and more about the memories we shared while running off of no sleep. Let it be less about the test score and the joy we get from knowing we tried our best. Let Spring Break be more about the jumps of adventure we take and less about the hours spent we catching up on sleep. We have the rest of our lives to be stressed and sleepness, but living each day to the fullest is what it is truly all about.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
