8 Ways I Enjoyed Spring Break At Home

Spring break is the time that's actually before spring, but many college students use this time to enjoy spring in warmer places. A lot of my friends jetted off to warmer locations, but I spent a relaxing time at home with my family, enjoying the perks of home.

Here are eight relaxing ways that I enjoyed my spring break at home, from sleeping to catching up on TV shows!

I spent quality time with my dogs.

Especially if you don't come home a lot during the school year.

I took breaks from constantly doing schoolwork.

I got to listen to some new music.

COS

By the way, this album is GREAT.

I got to see "Captain Marvel".

The movie was really great. I highly recommend.

I slept in every day.

I even took a (chilly) trip to Point Pleasant Beach in New Jersey.

I love visiting the beach when it isn't so crowded, even if there are 15 mph winds.

I continued binging my favorite shows.

Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry, the expert bakers that judge every cake, biscuit, scone, and pie the contestants make.

PBS - Great British Baking Show: Season 2 Episodes

I have recently been continuing to watch PBS's "Great British Baking Show".

I enjoyed some delicious food.

Here is a delicious dish with rigatoni pasta, ragu, beef brisket, sausage, and meatballs. So delicious!

I ate well the entire break from my favorite local restaurants and even cooked a couple of times.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
