Freshman Year Spring Break

Brace yourselves, college students, because spring break is right around the corner. Only a few more days and we'll be replacing these lecture halls for some place that's sunny and 75 degrees (hopefully). High school spring break was aways fun... but there is something about being in college that makes SB special, especially for freshman college students. Maybe it's the new found freedom that comes with the college years. Maybe it's the challenge of planning a week jam-packed with fun with virtually no money. No matter what it is, it's an interesting trip. Definitely one for the books.


ONE WEEK UNTIL SPRING BREAK

[Googles "get abs in seven days."]

But after a little research, you realize you actually have to give up pizza for that?!?!

Packing takes you about three times longer than it should because every five minutes you're like...


BEGINNING OF SPRING BREAK

After hours in the car, you and your friends finally arrive at the condo.

Squeezing 20 girls into a condo described as "comfortably sleeping eight" sounded like a good idea when you paid for it... but now the realization of 20 girls and four beds for a week sets in. However, you stay optimistic.

Finally, you hit the beach and it's all like:

Well, that's what you think. But in reality, it's more like

Then your Victoria's-Secret-Angel-looking friend is all, "Take a pic next to me in our bikinis!"

Later that night, some friends invite you over to their house for a party. After showering, doing your hair, and even putting on some makeup you walk in all like...

... only to soon realize...

Chatting with people and party games can only go on for so long before something like this happens.

By 3 A.M. you're like...

And that's pretty much the first day and the day after that and the day after that. First half of the week, you're all pumped and like....

... because I mean, it's spring break, man.


END OF SPRING BREAK

So you've been sharing a queen-sized bed with five other girls and surviving off of frozen meals for days now.

But you've still got some of that spring break spirit left in ya.

It's the last night and you're feeling sappy about the 19 other girls you've been stuck in that condo with. You're probably sitting in a circle rehashing the last week and all of a sudden it's like:

But it's the last night and you're not just going to sit around so...


AFTER SPRING BREAK

All in all, it was a great week. You grew closer to some friends and you made some unforgettable memories. You might have permanently twisted spine from sleeping in abnormal positions and you might be walking away with a bank account hitting a grand total of $0. You also learned a thing or two about yourself, like:

Only 365 more days until next spring break!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
