Spring break is a time full of infinite possibilities. We spend the week before counting down until we're free, and even start planning our days so we can make the most out of them. Needless to say, we have high expectations, but let's face it: our realities simply don't match up.

1. You imagine spring break will feel like spring ...

... but in reality, that's a joke.

2. You think you'll work out

For those of us who have trouble finding time to work out when we have class, spring break can be a great time to get a few sessions in.

The reality looks more like this.

Need I say more?

3. You'll eat healthy

You're home and away from cafeteria fries, so it's the perfect time to get back on track with healthy eating, right?

But this is what will definitely happen:

3. You'll keep up with homework

You've got everything under control, and everything planned out.

But let's face it -- it's going to look more like this.

3. You'll catch up on sleep

You're going to get all the sleep!

... but you won't get it at night.

4. You'll spend time with family

You can't wait to be home with your family and share a home-cooked meal.

But 15 minutes after said meal starts ...

Spring break is an awesome time to spring into action and be productive, but most of us just take the break part far too seriously.
