10 Fun Things To Do At Home For Spring Break

Yes, spring break is supposed to be a wild experience with all your friends at the beach. However, if you're like me and you're staying home for the break, here's 10 fun things to do to make your boring week a little bit better! (Note: this isn't supposed to be bold but this thing isn't working with me today. Also idk what those bullet points are for but they won't go away)

  • Have a sleepover with old friends

You know those best friends you had in high school that you never talk to now that you’re in college? Call them up and see if they want to get together. I’m sure they miss you as much as you miss them

  • Go on a road trip/adventure

Spontaneous road trips are the absolute best. No plan and no intended destination. Grab some friends and hit the road with a bomb playlist

  • Have a cook out with your family

You’re home for spring break and have been away from your family for a long time. Have dinner with them and catch up on life; yours and theirs

  • Clean your room/Re-do your room

This one doesn’t seem that fun to most people, but I promise you’ll feel better if everything is clean and put in its place.

  • Have a picnic with friends

Get some fast food, because no one cooks in college, and grab some friends for a nice picnic on a sunny day. Take lots of pictures to remember the beautiful day and the glorious fast food you just ate.

  • Go to a lake or beach for the day

Grab that cute bathing suit you’ve been dying to show off and go to a lake or beach for the day with some friends! Just don’t forget your sunscreen or you might regret it later!

  • Read an interesting book

No one ever has time to read in college, there’s so many things that come before sitting down and reading a good book. Spring break is a time to relax and unwind from the stress of school; run a bath, light some candles, and read a book

  • Have a movie marathon of Harry Potter/The Hunger Games/Lord of the Rings/etc.

If you’re just really bored one day and have no desire to get out of bed, then pop some popcorn, grab a soda, and start a movie marathon of your favorite series. Movie marathons are hard, but series are meant to be watched back to back.

  • Go shopping

Grab a few girlfriends or your mom (preferably mom because she will pay for things) and hit up your local mall/shopping center for some trendy new clothes. Be sure to show off all your new finds when school starts back!

  • Go to a dog park

What’s better than watching dogs run around all day? I can’t think of anything else I’d rather do on a sunny spring day. Just remember to watch where you step!!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
