28 Thoughts Everyone Has Before Spring Break

1. Only 4 days, 16 hours, and 29 minutes standing between me and freedom. (But who's counting?)

2. And like two midterms, a project, a research paper, and a quiz.

3. Okay, teachers who don't cancel your Friday classes. We get it, you hate fun. Don't worry, it's mutual.

4. Why didn't I jump on the Victoria's Secret semi-annual sale while I could?

5. Now I'm dropping upwards of $100 on swimsuits. It's fine. I'm fine.

6. That's almost as much as I paid for the beach house. It's fine.

7. Oh, crap. I have less than a week to get in shape to fit into those bikinis.

8. Eh forget it, I'll just wrap myself in my sorority flag to hide my post-girl-scout-cookie bod.

9. Still makes for cute pictures, right?

10. I should definitely be studying for those two midterms, but Pinterest is much more intriguing right now.

11. *search* "spring break coolers" "spring break outfits" "spring break ideas"

12. Should I bedazzle a giant water bottle?

13. I should most definitely start making a packing list...

14. All of the bro tanks and fanny packs.

15. Cheap sunglasses, cheap towels, cheap flip flops...

16. Let's be honest, I'll destroy or lose anything I take.

17. Fingers crossed I'll at least hold on to my dignity.

18. Should I even bring outfits to go out in at night? Is it humanly possible to rally?

19. I'm getting as many "low account balance" texts from my bank as I am texts from my group message planning this trip.

20. Just you wait, Chase Bank. The worst is yet to come.

21. God be with the landlord whose beach house is about to be infiltrated by 30 girls.

22. And God forgive us girls that may or may not accidentally trash the place.

23. But God, please deal with the girl that throws up anywhere other than the toilet however you deem appropriate.


24. Yes, mom, I promise I won't forget to wear sunscreen and stay hydrated.

25. Aloe vera post-sunburn is fine too, though, right?

26. And is chasing with water good enough?

27. This week has the potential to be the biggest wreck or the best time of my life.

28. Screw it. Life's what you make it, so let's make it the latter.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
