Sring Break finally approaches us!! Time to unwind, relax, and sleep! Whether you’re going away on a trip with pals or just relaxing at home and watching movies, here’s a to-do list during you’re much needed school-free week.

1. Just do that project already!

Yes, you know. The one you’ve been pushing off since your professor handed you their syllabus. Papers and projects usually aren’t much fun, but just dedicate one day to finishing it! It’ll be one less thing to do when you go back! Trust me, you’ll thank yourself for it later.

2. Girls’ Night!

No more excuses! Get the squad together for dinner, a night out, or even just a night in. You all could use some time to catch up and remind yourselves why you're all best friends! Fun nights with your friends are always good for improving your mood and laughter is the best medicine!

3. Get out of the house!

Whether you’re going on a trip to Miami or just a day trip of shopping and checking out a new local attraction, do something! You’ll feel much more accomplished just by being able to try something new and climb out of your rut. Plus you're on vacation! Vacations are for smiles and good memories!

4. Clean, please

I know it's not just me. It’s that point in the semester. Your room is a mess. Please at least clean enough so your floor is visible and it doesn’t look like a small tornado whirled through your room. We’re past the point where Christmas lights will improve your room’s atmosphere. A clean room is always more fun to hang out in and your friends won't have to worry about breaking an ankle when they try to maneuver their way to your bed!

5. Treat Yourself!

Either splurge on a new outfit, do something with your hair, or just play around with some new products. Now’s the perfect time to up your look and be confident about it. Another dose of self-esteem never hurts! You should have fun spending money on yourself.

6. Rest and Relax

Sleep in. Take a bubble bath. Do a facial. Snuggle up on the sofa and just enjoy not having a class to run to or homework to do later. Your body needs plenty of rest for you to be healthy and live a life with the best quality you can achieve. Plus it's so relaxing!!

Please have a fun, safe, and memorable break! You deserve it!

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.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

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.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
