The time has come! It is spring break my fellow students! Grab your bathing suit and friends, and get to the beach pronto. It's time to get golden brown, let your hair get curly from the sea salt, and have all the fun you can squeeze in your week-long vacation.
You and your spring break group have been planning for months and months. The GroupMe has been constantly blowing up your phone. We all know how ready you are for this week, especially after the week of test and all-nighters you endured. The spring break countdown has ended because the time is here!
If you are like me, then this is your first spring break without your parents. There are probably tons of thoughts and emotions running through your mind. You are probably overwhelmed with excitement that this is your first time on spring break with your friends without any parents. After 19 years of having parental supervision, you and your friends are going to have to be each other's parents.
There are probably a little bit of nerves going through your head. There will be no parents to take care of the “adult" things. Mom and Dad won't be there to bail you out of any trouble you crazy kids decide to get into.
No matter what you are feeling, just remember to enjoy spring break. You only have a week before you are back in Lockett listening to an hour-and-half lecture. Take as many pictures as you can, make the best memories you can make.
Remember to drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. Lather up in sunscreen, or grab a friend with a steady hand to do it for you. Trust me nothing is worse than getting a lobster color sunburn. Make sure to stay with your spring break group, and leave no sister or brother behind.
