So mid-terms are done. You're home, but you still feel stressed and on edge about just about every aspect of your life. It's normal to feel like that. It's hard to truly be able tot relax on spring break after weeks and weeks of stress and knowing you are heading back to stress in just a week. Spring break, however, is a great time to truly unwind and give yourself the break you need.
If you're like me and didn't go on a fun vacation for the week and are just heading home, it's also pretty easy to get a case of FOMO and feel as though you have nothing to do at home. Relaxation is the major key and going home is a great way to relax! But obviously you can't just sleep the entire week and if your family is at work all day, the long days at home can start to get a little boring. I hope that this list helps to realize all the thing that you can do over break to relax and unwind, without getting a case of boredom! Enjoy!!
