5 Ways To Spend Spring Break
C. C. Hunter Books

Spring break is just around the corner, but the real question is how you're going to spend it! It can be hard trying to make plans and coordinate with other people, so here are some easy ways to spend your spring break.

1. Go home

For some people it's not easy getting home to see the family. Take this time to go home and relax if you feel like you need a break from school friends. Going home for spring break isn't as lame as it sounds and you’ll find that a lot of people end up doing it!

2. Go to Canada

Never been out of the country? Canada is a great place to start! Find a bus that can take you up to one of the big cities (Montreal/Toronto/Vancouver) and spend a couple days exploring a different culture! P.S. This trip is not for those who aren't good in cold weather, it's cold as hell in Canada this time of year.

3. Go to a beach

Take a getaway to one of the closest beaches near you. If you go to a school that's currently in a snowy season it might be nice to take a trip to more tropical weather.

4. Stay on campus

If you go to a school with a lot of things to do in the area you may consider just staying in campus with some friends. Plan out what you want to do for each day so you don't just end up still around the dorms, and go have fun! This way you're not paying for a hotel and minimal transportation.

5. Road trip


If you have a friend with a car, take advantage! Everyone on the trip pitch in some money for gas and go! Try traveling the areas of the state that you've been wanting to explore or even travel to a different state. This is a great way to get to know your friends better because you'll be in a car together for so long! Disclaimer: you will be in a car with these people A LOT so make sure you know you'll be able to handle being with them for that long.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
