Spring Break

Is it really a break?

You'd think that the reason colleges give you a Spring Break is to come home to your family, relax, and unwind. However, that is not the case for me, and I doubt it is the case for you. Here are 6 reasons why I feel like my "Spring Break" isn't exactly a break:

1. I am looking for summer jobs

If you are coming home for the summer, and want to make a little money, then, Spring Break is the only time to set up interviews and apply for positions.

2. Some classes have midterms after the break

This is annoying because you have to live in the constant fear of forgetting the material, but you also have no motivation to study for it because you are supposed to be on vacation.

3. Do you have younger siblings?

Then you end up playing chauffeur the entire break. Honestly, it's fun because you miss driving while at school, but it not fun because you have to be awake.

4. You want to sleep until the week is over

Not allowed....you may be accused of being lazy. No one realizes how sleep deprived we have been.

5. Doctor, dentist, vet, etc.

If you are anything like me, then you scheduled all of you appointments for the same week, meaning no break.

6. Last but not least, god forbid, your family wants to take a trip

Honestly, you low-key just want to sit and stay in the comfort of you childhood home, You do NOT want to travel

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
