6 Spring Break "Staycation" Ideas

Spring Break is just around the corner, and just because you aren't going out of town doesn't mean you have to be sitting at home all week. There are so many things to do, you just have to actually get out and do them. Netflix is always acceptable, but try to be a little more spontaneous every now and then!

1. Go hiking

There are so many hiking trails in the Atlanta area; one for every level hiker. Whether you can hike half of a mile or five, I can assure you there is a hiking trail out there that you'd enjoy.

2. Bike the Atlanta Beltline

This is the perfect outdoor activity for a big group of friends or even for the whole family! Don't worry if you if you don't have a bike; you can rent one.

3. Have a picnic in Piedmont Park

If the weather is nice (which you won't know until the day of since we live in Georgia), pack a lunch and head to Piedmont Park for a nice picnic! You'll have a beautiful view of the Atlanta skyline, and if you go in the evening, you have a chance of seeing a gorgeous sunset.

4. Go to Andretti

Even if it rains, you still won't be bored thanks to Andretti. They have a huge go-carting track, a long zip line, a ginormous arcade with tons of games and so much more. It's absolutely impossible for you to get bored there.

5. Walk around Ponce City Market

Walking around Ponce City can be an enjoyable experience for anyone, even without buying anything. Everything about it is so unique, which makes it so fun to just walk around and look at what they have.Sometimes they even have a mini golf course on the roof!

6. Skyview Atlanta

Skyview Atlanta is basically the same thing as the London Eye. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but you definitely need to go if you haven't! Or even if you have, it never hurts to go again. It can be a day time or night time activity, depending on whether you want to see what all of Atlanta looks like in the day or what it looks like lit up at night.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
