8 Reasons To Visit Savanna, Georgia This Spring Break

For many college students, spring break is here or is coming up! Many students head to pricey, overcrowded spots, like the big city or the beach. Yet there are places that hit all the same checkboxes (great parties, IG-able moments, etc.) without the price tag or the headcount. So, be unique and consider Savannah, Georgia for your spring break vacation destination!

1. The price.

Savannah doesn't even compare to South Florida or New York when it comes to hotels. Your small college student savings will go a much longer way towards a nicer stay. Plus, parking is very accessible, so it's a very road trip-friendly destination. Be prepared to break out your throwback playlist for the ride there with your squad.

2. You can walk everywhere.

Savannah's reputation precedes it as one of the places to be in the South. But it's not that big. Many of the places you'll want to go will be concentrated towards River Street. All the money you could have spent on gas, Uber or a car rental can go back in your pocket.

3. It's not very touristy.

Everyone knows tourists can be annoying. The big city is packed with them, and the beaches are always hot and crowded. Savannah isn't going to be full of tacky tourists like other places. You can enjoy your vacation without having to see a million maps in the air.

4. It has a vibrant art scene.

The Savannah College of Art and Design is dispersed throughout the city. It has a big influence on its own. You'll definitely see more than your fair share of well-dressed art students in the streets. The art gives the city such a great sense of culture. Savannah has plenty of museums, theatres, and galleries for you to see – and these are often free.

5. The shopping.

Not only will all your favorite small mall franchises like H&M and Urban Outfitters have two-story locations right across the street from each other, but you'll find many thriving small businesses as well. You'll definitely be able to pick up things that are hard to find anywhere else, which is why I always recommend shopping local on vacation.

6. The restaurants.

Like I said, small businesses thrive – and so do the restaurants. Savannah has amazing food. Whether you're in the mood for something more hipster or some classic southern grub, there's a food spot for every person in your group in Savannah.

7. It has historical architecture.

The architecture in Savannah is totally unique. There are many preserved buildings for historical reasons. The city is full of plenty of backdrops for cute Instagram photos! The buildings on River Street relate to each other in a way that is completely unique.

8. Great nightlife!

The main attraction of any college vacation spot is the nightlife. At night, the streets of Savannah are alive with people! There are plenty of the bars in the city, and there a bunch of clubs along River Street. Check out a few of the hot spots. I'm sure you'll meet really cool people from all over the world.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
