6 Ways to Spend Your Spring Break (At Home)
Emerald View Resorts

Spring Break is here, or just around the corner depending on where you are, and if you are anything like me, you have no idea what you should be doing. After the chaos that are midterms, we have been granted a week of freedom during which we have the ability to relinquish school and relax. As much as I wish I could be one of the lucky ones cruising to the Bahamas on a boat or checking out the big cities during this break, I am on that "ramen noodles every night budget" and cannot afford an adventure quite that grand. Instead, I have compiled a list of things that we ramen consumers can partake in during our vacation from school.

1. Binge a series on Netflix.


I for one know that I am going to be doing this one! During this break I have selected a high school favorite, The Secret Life of the American Teenager.

2. Catch up on some reading


Lord knows, I have had no free time during the actual school year to pleasure read. One of my go-to activities during break is to read some of the many books that I own.

3. Check out a beach

While you may not be on a cruise ship on crystal waters, you can still go to the beach! Grab some friends and head off to the water! Living in Florida it is an easy thing to do. If you are not in Florida, try a lake beach, those are pretty cool too.

4. Eat your weight in Girl Scout cookies

It is time. Those little cookie selling mini-humans will corner you down regardless of whether you want them too or not. Just cave and binge them, possibly while binging Netflix or reading.

5. Go on a hike

Become one with nature and embrace the health mojo of hiking.

6. Do your homework

Yes, teachers are cruel and probably assigned you homework over your vacation. Just do it and get it done and over with. The sooner it is done, the sooner you can go ahead and binge Fuller House.

If all else fails, just sleep all break. Have an awesome break everyone, enjoy it! All too soon finals will drawing near!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
