5 Last Minute Spring Break Adventures
Choose A Place For Relax

I know you were studying hard for those midterms and forgot allllll about spring break. But please, do not fret. You might not be going to Cabo with your 10+ person squad or flying to Seoul to live your K-pop fandom, but you've got something even better: the freedom to create your own trip. As the saying goes, "when there is a will, there is a way." Here are some ways you can make your spring break 100x better than just staying at home.

*list ranked from cheapest to most expensive*

1. Nothing Better Than A Good Ol' Camping Trip

One of the best (underrated) parts about California is the vast amount of nature we have. Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Big Sur, Sequoia, and Big Bear are all amazing places to visit during the spring. If you want to keep this trip costs down, a camping trip is the way to go! All you really need is a tent and some companions.

2. Cruises Are IN And Flights Are OUT

If you live by the coast, cruises are the next level cost efficient way of spending your spring break. There are still quite a few spaces left on cruises going to Mexico, Seattle, and even Canada. A good place to start would be Carnival or Princess Cruises.

3. Two Hour Trips Are My Fav

I personally am not a huge fan of driving long distances. However, the most I can do is two hours. Luckily, there are some really cool cities within a two-hour radius of Los Angeles! You've got San Diego, Santa Barbara, Big Bear, and if you have the bandwidth to venture out just a little bit further, Joshua Tree is pretty amazing in my opinion.

4. Amusement Parks Are Your Jam

If you want some adventure in Los Angeles, consider hitting up an amusement park each day! In Los Angeles, we have Disneyland (2 days for the 2 parks), Knott's Berry Farm, Universal Studios, Six Flags, etc. That's already five days worth of exhilaration for you.

5. "Casually" Stay At A Resort

This one is for those with the dolla bills. Stay at a fancy resort in the more expensive part of town (i.e. Bel Air) and you'll feel like you've been transported to a whole new planet. Some places to look into are: La Quinta Resort & Club and St. Regis Resort.

Regardless of what you choose to do, I know you're going to enjoy every minute of it!

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
