So the week after spring break my university had two snow days and many teachers cancelled their classes the day after. Thus leaving us all in a daze, and unready for rest of the semester ahead. So somehow, we are all still in break mode and are dying with every assignment because of it. Therefore, here are some basic tips to help you get through the post spring break funk.

Only Start a Countdown if You NEED To:

A 49/50 day countdown is not fun for anyone and will only disappoint you more. Therefore, do not get one or share one unless that is the only way you can get through it. That countdown is long enough to cause unnecessary anxiety and summer/senioritis when it is not called for or necessary.

Remember that there is still a month and change of school left.

If you remember that are still weeks left until finals, you can focus on each assignment as it comes. Do not worry about finals yet and do not pretend that there are only two weeks left and that you can just blow each assignment off. Take a step back and destress.

Have fun:

Go out and live your life. You are only in school for about six more weeks and then you have three months of summer and will be away from everyone you live with now. Exist with your friends and enjoy the time you have left. The spring is always shorter and jampacked with events, so enjoy them.

Life is stressful and so is school. But if you blow everything off or set a countdown, you are only going to psych yourself out. There are no necessary stressors. Just live your life and do your work one assignment at a time. Remember that it isn't break anymore. You can work and still have fun, just sit down and push through.
