The spring semester is filled with tons to do, but the biggest event on everyone's calendar is Spring Break. We all love our schools and are blessed to have the opportunity to obtain a higher level of education, but for some reason I did not miss going to class one bit over this week. Spring Break gives college kids a chance to turn their brains off and frankly helps us stall until the summer. We not only want Spring Break, we needed it. Here are the reasons Spring Break is such a blessing:

1. You Get The Opportunity To Travel And Experience A New Place

2. Even If You Don’t Travel, You Can Spend Some Time Reading Clever Instagram Captions From Your Closest Acquaintances

3. In Case You Needed To Be Closer With Your Friends Or Family—You Now Have The Time To Do Both

4. Not Only Will Your Course Load Be Lighter, Your Wallet Will Be Too

5. You Have An Endless Amount Of Time (One Week) To Get As Tan Or Stay As Pale As You Please

6. You Can Sleep In To The Point Where Your Friends Worry About You

7. You Can Take This Time To Work On Yourself And Do What You Haven’t Had The Time To Do

8. If Your Midterms Broke You, This Week Is Time To Emotionally Recover

9. It's A Whole 7 Days Before You Even Have To Think About Your Responsibilities

10. I Mean Really, You Might Still Have Them, But You Don’t Have To Acknowledge Them For The Next 7 Days

11. It Gives You A New Perspective On How Valuable Your Time Is And How Much You Appreciate How You Spent It
