The Introverts' Guide To Spring Break

Spring Has Never Been So Relaxing

The Introverts' Guide To Spring Break
Marissa Castille

Spring break is either here or approaching, and many people have packed their bags for a popular beach destination like PCB (Panama City Beach). A simple google image search of "spring break" gives off the expectations of parties. But for others, spending the break amongst a crowd of people doesn’t feel like the best way to treat the week off. For introverts who can only take so much social interaction, spring break can still be an enjoyable time. Here are ways to distract yourself away from school and stress.

1. Grab a book or a movie.

It’s good to take a break from reality. When taking classes, it’s often hard to take time away from projects and papers.

2. Treat yourself with a refreshing drink.

Whether it’s a glass of wine or a smoothie, treat yourself to a refreshing, cool drink.

3. Take time to reach out to friends.

This doesn’t mean going out partying. As great as it is to get some alone time, it’s still good to have some social interaction. Reach out to your friends during the break.

4. Pick up your hobbies.

Whether it’s writing or crocheting, now’s a good time to pick up your hobby again to keep your mind going. It’s fun to have a break, but it’s good to keep working on things, too.

5. Enjoy nature.

The weather is getting nice, and it’s always a good idea to get some fresh air. Maybe spend the time taking a hike or a simple walk through the park.

Spring break doesn’t always have to be a crazy time. For introverts like me, it’s a great time to relax and enjoy the week your way.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
