How To Plan A Spring Break Staycation
Marialexa Nastis

You might feel left out if a lot of your friends have cool spring break plans and you are either stuck at home or stuck at school, but there are plenty of ways to turn your spring break lull into a staycation! Here are some tips on what to do if you feel bored staying at home over spring break:

1. Picnic

Enjoy the outdoors, whether you have true spring in your hometown, or it's still a little chilly, you can bring blankets and make food and go to a cool outdoor location for a picnic with friends.

2. Hikes

Enjoy your time off by not spending the day in gyms or classrooms and get some fresh air by taking hikes to interesting views.

3. Cooking

Try making a new recipe or teaching yourself a cooking skill to spice up your repertoire.

4. Relax

Sometimes, with the short amount of break time we get, we forget that breaks are also for resting! Takes some time to treat yourself to a face mask, day cuddled on the couch, or day in the sun to rejuvenate and relax.

5. Movie/TV Marathon

One of my favorite things to do in my time off is research the best TV shows and movies and try to watch some while I have time over break!

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?

Happy Birthday Cake

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?

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.
