15 Spring Break Essentials You Should Order Right Now

Denis Oliveira

Looking cute on spring break isn't just about Instagrammable bathing suits. It's also about being prepared with sun protection and makeup that won't smudge!

Sunglasses

A different pair of sunglasses can totally change a look. Treat yourself and buy a new pair! TJ Maxx and Amazon always have good deals on designer sunnies.

Highlighter

Highlighter takes minimal makeup to the next level. A glowy highlighter can keep you from looking lazy or like you did your makeup in a rush. This BECCA highlight in Opal is my favorite thing ever.

Baseball Cap

Baseball hats that get worn to the beach always get covered in sunscreen and sand so I like to have one dedicated to beach use only. Get a cut one to protect your face and coordinate with your bathing suits. Forever 21 has a ton of basic ones for under $10.

Brow Gel

I usually stick to brow powder, but for something more waterproof a brow gel might be a better idea. This one from essence is super affordable too.

Long Sleeve Cover-Up

If you're sensitive to the sun like I am, a long sleeve cover-up is a must have. This one from Princess Polly is totally cute and functional.

Cream Eyeshadow

Cream eyeshadow is going to be your best bet if you want it to last all day. These shadows from Glossier dry down so they last all day.

Extra AF Dress

Spring break is the optimum occasion to wear your most extra outfits. Why not take advantage of that opportunity and wear something like this!

Cheap Statement Earrings

Your bathing suit is your outift for the day, so accessories are key to dress it up! A cheap pair of statement earrings can be a fun accessory you don't have to worry about.

Insta-Worthy Swimsuit

On spring break buying a new bathing suit is like buying a new outfit, so treat yourself! With almost 2,000 options, ASOS has you covered.

SPF Chapstick

Lips can get sunburn too! Sunscreen chapstick is essential. This one from Neutrogena is my favorite, its tinted and shimmery.

Hair Accessories

Your hair will probably be up all week so you might as well have cute accessories for it. Forever 21 has adorable hair ties and scrunchies to match every look.

Aloe Vera

No matter how hard you try you'll probably still end up with a little bit of a sun burn. Do yourself a favor and buy a lotion with aloe already built in, like this one from Soap & Glory.

Ankle Bracelet

Ankle bracelets are my favorite summer accessory and for me they are an absolute necessity for spring break. TJ Maxx always has cute ones in stock too!

Witch Hazel

Witch hazel is supposed to be really helpful for dealing with sun poisoning and the rash that comes in it. Many rose water toners have this already built in, so make sure yours does double duty like this Thayers one.

Waterproof Mascara

I HATE waterproof mascara, but sometimes it is the only option. This Maybelline one is my go-to because it doesn't get all flaky like most others.

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

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.
