It's a marathon, not a sprint so make sure you pace yourself.

Spring break is upon us and everyone is getting excited! Spring break is the time of year where you gather all your friends, pack your suitcases, and head off to your destination. Here are a few things that people typically end up saying on their trip.

1. "Are we there yet?"

If you are traveling to your destination by car then I'm guessing you have said this a time or two.

2. "I'm not ready to be seen in a bikini."

Spring break comes around the corner fast and there is never enough time to get that desired beach body that everyone wants, but liquid courage can help with that.

3. "Bringing a fanny pack was the best decision I have made."

You can only carry so much in your two hands and having an easy-access bag is always handy. Bringing a fanny pack is a good decision because it can carry all the necessities like hair ties, chapstick, gum, cash, your ID, and sunscreen.

4. "Wow, did everyone go swimsuit shopping at Target this year?"

Everyone knows that target is the place to go for inexpensive, trendy swimsuits but when you see 5 girls walk by you in the same swimsuit you are still in shock.

5. "I actually need to put sunscreen on today."

Nobody enjoys sunburns, they are uncomfortable and itchy. One of the only ways to prevent a sunburn is applying sunscreen. Having a sunburn won't stop you from going out but you will have a better time if you aren't drenched in aloe vera.

6. "It's a marathon, not a sprint."

Saying it's a marathon, not a sprint versus actually following the saying is two completely different things. Actions speak louder than words so make sure you pace yourself or else you will hate yourself in the morning (or even at 2 PM).

7. "I can't wait to take a nap."

When 3 PM or 4 PM rolls around it's time to head back to the hotel to take a quick nap. A nap is essential because without one you won't be able to have as much fun at night.

8. "Time to rally."

Rallying is extremely important to successfully do spring break. At the time rallying might seem like an impossible task but once you get out of bed from your nap you are golden. Chug some Pedialyte, get dressed, eat dinner, walk out the door, and never look back.

9. "Where did my sunglasses go?"

Losing a pair of sunglasses is devastating and we all have the potential to do so. Bring an inexpensive pair with you on vacation so when they go MIA, it's not the end of the world.

10. "Sorry, Mom and Dad."

Spring break has the potential to influence bad decisions. Would Mom and Dad be proud of what I'm up to? Probably not.

11. "I'm ready to go home."

Spring break is all fun and games but it has to come to an end and it's probably time to go home anyway. The memories will last forever but the bruises are temporary.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
