13 Things That Every College Student Does On Break

The long awaited spring break is just around the corner, and not everyone is destined for Punta Cana, Atlantis or Aruba. The rest of us will just have to resort to our own methods of relaxation. So, for those of us who aren't headed on an exotic spring break getaway, here are 12 ways that every college student spends their break.

1. Sleep

The only way you'll survive that post-midterm depression.

2. Watch Netflix

Because if you don't, are you even a college student?

3. Snapchat your dog...

No one is more excited to see you home than your puppy, and he's just so cute that you absolutely have to add him to your story multiple times a day.

4. ...or your cat...

I mean who doesn't want to see a picture of a cute cat...or a thousand.

5. ...or a picture of your car

Likely with the caption "back at it" or "missed this".

6. Hang out with your high school friends 24/7

No one can compare to your original squad. And as every college student knows, going from being surrounded by all your peers to being surrounded by only your family is a real struggle.

7. Experience Roommate Withdrawal

Unless you hate your roommate, in which case, you'll probably celebrate a week roommate free.

8. Celebrate REAL food

Eat,

and eat,

and eat...


9. Until this happens...

What fun is eating unless you stuff yourself until you feel like you literally may explode.

10. Visit your favorite restaurant in your hometown

Only your favorite tiny cafe or mom and pop's diner makes the cut.

11. Spend quality time in your childhood bedroom.

Your childhood bedroom and all of the clothes and stuff you left behind will never go out of style.

12. Cooking for yourself

And not burning down the house. That burnt toast smells only half as delicious as it tastes. No one has to know that you came dangerously close to catching the microwave on fire...

13. Actually spending like five minutes at home.

Because let's be honest. We all go home for break and end up spending a total of five minutes at home.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.
