7 Things You Should Do Over Break

Guys. I survived. And if you too are done like I am, you survived. I thought I wouldn't be able to make it but guess what, I DID! Now, I am enjoying my winter break. It is for sure going to be filled with relaxation... with a little bit of relaxation... and then some more relaxation. Here are some things I think you should do over break cause you deserve it!


1. Nothing. Seriously, don't even lift a finger.

The minute someone asks you to do anything, just straight up sock 'em in the face.

2. Pet your dog. Pet your cat. Pet your pet.

Your animal needs you and you need them, give them some long overdue love.

3. Binge a show.

Some suggestions for you: Penny Dreadful, Sons of Anarchy, Stranger Things, Portlandia, The Fall, and Shameless (suggested by my roommates). Watch them all in rapid succession.

4. Eat everything.

Chance to order pizza? Do it. Mom offers to make you a snack? Take it. There should be a piece of food in your mouth during every single minute of this break.

5. Hang out with family/friends that you haven't seen.

Or don't... cause you know.. the hermit life is the best life.

6. Read that book that you've been telling yourself you're going to read for the last three years.

And if you don't... there's always spring break!

7. Finally, scratch numbers 2-6 off this list and only complete #1. DO NOTHING! THIS IS TIME FOR YOU TO JUST BE IN THE WORLD!

Channel Oprah, she is living the life and you could be too.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
