What Your Spring Break Destination Says About You

Answer: a lot more than you’d think.

What Your Spring Break Destination Says About You

Whether you spent weeks eating salads and working out or just decided to roll with the one-piece trend, you’ve been thinking about this week off all semester. Whether you decide to fiesta in Cabo or siesta in your bed at home, your choice of destination says a lot more about you than you’d think.

1. Home

The FOMO that you experienced all week was torturous unless you live in Hawaii. Passive aggressively commenting “crop me in” on all of your friend’s pics made you feel a little better, but not quite as good as the twelve hours of sleep that you got every night (plus the two-hour naps that you took because being awake for more than six hours at a time is hard).


2. Another School

This time of year, it is inevitable that one of your friends’ schools will be having their “Super-Big-Party-Alcoholfest-Weekend.” It's especially fun because you get to post pictures of you and your best friend with the caption “reunited” like the high school hero who you are. You know that there’s nothing better than old friends who will undoubtedly get some photos of you at your (not so) finest moments and tell embarrassing stories about that one time at prom.



3. Skiing

You had snow much fun, didn’t you? Skiing is a totally classy move and it will probably lead to a lot less untagging on Facebook than a beach trip because you won’t be in a swimsuit 24/7. You definitely know what’s up because you basically got to hang out in waterproof sweatpants all week. Even though you came back a little jealous of your super bronze friends who went to Cancun, a tan something that money can buy.


4. The Beach (US)

So, you packed up the car and made your way down to a condo in the Gulf Shores for the sea, sand, and sun, right? Wrong. This trip is going to be about one thing and one thing only for you: Instagram. You can “throw what you know” in your sleep and probably took some real keepers on the beach while holding your sorority’s flag. You absolutely killed the IG game before your SPF 3 Bronze Goddess Extra Dark Tropical Babe tanning oil let you down when you fell asleep on the beach and turned into a human lobster. Oh well, that’s what filters are for.


5. The Beach (Mexico)

Since PCB is no longer a thing and there seem to be no actual rules in Mexico, it’s clear that you came for a good time. Your Snapchat story was at least five minutes long at any given time (it's a good thing that you deleted your grandma/mom/middle school aged sibling first). You now truly know what it means to rally, especially if you drank the tap water. I hope that you didn’t accidentally open your mouth in the shower.

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.

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.
