12 Spring Break Goals That Probably Did Not Happen
The Huffington Post

Spring Break! Yeah! The week we have all desperately been waiting for. A week after stressing over finals and now you just want to forget! A week that we said we were going to go wild or do some self-reflections to get your act together! It was a week that you were going to make new memories and get that new high number of likes on Instagram. Reality check! The end of Spring Break is here and now you're reflecting on your accomplishments...or not. Here are 11 Spring Break Goals that you said you were going to accomplish but things might have changes:

1. You said you were going to spend time with friends and family

Yeah. Right. The moment you hear someone's voice you quickly try to avoid them and run to your room!

2. You said you were going to go to the beach

"I'm going to get a nice tan!" Um....Instead of planning a Beach Trip you're on your last episode of the 6th show that you've binge-watched on Netflix. Own it!

3. You said you were going to explore

Yeah. Even I said it. But did you hear about that kidnapping?! I'm still a child! Mom!

4. You said you were going to fixing your sleeping schedule

"I'm going to wake up early, be productive, and go to bed early!" Are you sure? You've woke up every day this Spring Break past 12. At least you are going to bed early. You're halfway there!

5. Getting a break from school

You said this was going to be your week to relax and forget about everything. In reality, you're refreshing the page to see your final grades, your schedule, your homework for your new classes, and not to mention your expensive textbooks. It's okay we know.

6. You said you were going to find someone new and have a "Spring Fling"


Okay. So maybe cupid missed the memo? It's okay I have Netflix.

7.You said you were going to eat healthy and make workout schedule

"I'm going to have a cleanse and eat healthily!!" Yeah. Um can you pass the bags of chips please? I'm lifting with every pizza slice.

8.You said you were going to bond with your parents

I'm not five anymore! You can't do anything without your parents watching/lecturing you. It's like every conversation you have with them leads to an argument. You probably even have to negotiate that you'll be home before 10 when you go out.

9. You said you were going to go out and go to parties

"I'm going to go out and party!" Then probably realized that all your friends that you've been partying with for the last few months are all thousands of miles away from you and you have a 10 p.m. curfew.

10. You said you were going to stop spending money/save

*Looks at bank account and cries* Okay. "Beyond Wonderland" was totally worth it. You should never regret spending money on priceless memories or food!

11. Planning your schedule so when you go back to school

So perhaps you're not good at planning and now that you look at the calendar and realized that school is only days away you can do this. I'm not ready either, we may all go to different schools but don't worry. We will survive another quarter/term/semester/etc together and hopefully, make it out physically/mentally/spiritually alive.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
