The perfect spring break consists of golden, tan skin, margaritas by the poolside, and a tropical vacation. That’s how we all imagine our ideal spring break to go, but then reality hits you... and you end up spending the whole break eating chips and watching Netflix on the couch all day.

Expectation: Perfect weather.


We all hope for 75-degree, sunny beach days every single day of spring break.

Reality: It ends up raining every single day.

Expectation: Having a perfect beach body.

Having a hot bod for spring break is anything anyone could ask for. However, that doesn't always work out...

Reality:


I think we can all relate to Fat Amy when it comes to working out.

Expectation: Eating a perfect diet.

We all like to pretend that over spring break, we are going to eat super healthy and keep our hot bods.

Reality:

Spring break turns out to be the best time to pig out. Who knew!

Expectation: Laying out by the beach all day and getting tan.

We all just want that beautiful golden glow.

Reality:

You actually find that you look more like a tomato at the end of the day.

Expectation: Going on a super cool trip with your best friends.

Cabo, Hawaii, the Carribean? The choices are endless!

Reality:

You actually end up realizing that you have no money so you and your friends stay at home all of break, instead.

Expectation: HOT BOYS.

During spring break, you expect to see hot boys everywhere. It's supposed to be prime time to find attractive guys.

Reality:

You end up seeing something a little bit different...

Expectation: Waking up early to make the most of every day.

You promise yourself that you will wake up at 8 am every day of break.

Reality:

You end up sleeping until 5 in the afternoon and you're actually pretty happy with it.

Expectation: Taking perfect beach pictures.

You expect that all your beach pics will turn out looking like a Victoria's Secret magazine but...

Reality:

Your friend gets some pictures of you when your not ready and they end up looking a little something like this.

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good. Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time.

Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.
