1. How to Take a Cold Shower
Whenever 18 people cram themselves into one condo with minimal bathrooms, mornings can get rough. After my experience, I'm entirely convinced that hell is just all of us trying to shower in the mornings, repeated over and over again. Most of the time, you're lucky to get warm water for half of your shower, so be prepared to take ice cold showers and step out shivering. On the plus side, a cold shower can work wonders whenever you wake up wondering if you're actually alive anymore.
2. How to Eating Nothing but Pizza Rolls
Spring break means balling on a budget, so what you eat is the last of your concerns. No matter how healthy you prefer to eat on a normal basis, be prepared to live off of pizza rolls and chicken tenders for a week straight. It may sound awesome, but it feels awful after day 2.
3. How to Survive on Little to No Sleep and Keep Going All Day
Spring break consists of long days and longer nights. Be prepared to go to bed at 3 a.m. and still wake up by 8 a.m. every morning. Whenever you cram so many people into one room, everyone wakes up as soon as the first person is up. In addition to that, if your friends are anything like mine, you might even have a daily wake up call of "Circle of Life" over the speakers at 8 a.m. sharp.
4. How to Pack Lightly
Not only is light packing essential for traveling with surplus amounts of people, but once you arrive at your destination you'll also wish you had packed lighter. Whenever you're trying to fit 6+ girls in one bedroom, the last thing you'll want to do is clean up the mess that occurs every time you all search for that one perfect top in your unorganized bag.
5. How to Get Uncomfortably Close with All of Your Friends
Spring break is the ultimate bonding experience, so get mentally prepared to get closer with your friends than you ever imagined. One of you will shower while the other uses the bathroom and you'll all change in front of one another multiple times a day. It's an eye-opening experience, but it's also the best week you'll ever have.
