40 Things To Do Over Spring Break If You Are Not Going On Vacation

This past week was my first Spring Break as a college student. I feel as though everyone in college goes away during their breaks. Either they go on a family vacation somewhere, or they go away to somewhere fun or warm with friends. However, there is the select group who, if you are like me, just went home.

My Spring Break was nothing spectacular. In fact, it was super boring. Not really that awesome as some people have had or will have. Here is a list of all the things you can do while on Spring Break at home.

1. Hang out with family.

2. Hang out with friends.

3. Go on a day trip somewhere.

4. Do your homework. (Honestly, this is a last resort.)

5. Sleep in.

6. Puppy sit so you are not lonely while your family is at work or school.

7. Talk to your pets/ puppy you are watching.

8. Chase said animal around a table for 20 minutes.

9. Lay on the kitchen floor and eat.

10. Watch movies.

11. Lay in bed all day.

12. Dance in your room.

13. Go get fast food alone.

14. Go shopping, either online or if you have the motivation, leave the house to do so.

15. Buy unnecessary things.

16. Babysit or work to get money.

17. Spend said money. (Even though you are supposed to be saving it since you are broke.)

18. Go out to lunch with old friends.

19. Puppy sit a service dog so when you go our you receive attention and are able to interact with humans during the day rather than just the puppy.

20. Go to the movies either by yourself or with a friend.

21. Go to the mall to walk around.

22. Go to the mall with your mom so she can buy you stuff.

23. Hang out with your parents so they can buy you stuff.

24. Learn something new. (I learned how to sew.)

25. Make something creative.

26. Watch Netflix all day.

27. Catch up on shows.

28. Binge watch a series on Netflix.

29. Start more than one new series to binge watch.

30. Go food shopping with your best friend and his family.

31. Go with your best friend and his dad to the barber shop.

32. Read a magazine while said friend and friend's father get their haircut.

33. Find new songs you like.

34. Go to your old high school.

35. Say hi to old teachers and friends still in school.

36. Go on a walk.

37. Text your mom about how bored you are.

38. Be a chauffeur for your siblings.

39. Try to learn how to do makeup and fail miserably.

40. Look into making plans for next Spring Break so you do not have to endure the boredom you just faced for the past week.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
