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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
