Spring Break, Shootings and Curfew

Miami Beach during spring break is absolutely incredible! It's a paradise for college students and young adults looking for fun, sun, and adventure. The energy in the air is electrifying, and the vibe is absolutely contagious! Here's what you can expect during a spring break trip to Miami Beach. The beaches are the heart of the action, and they are packed with amazing beach parties and events that go on all day and night. Imagine basking in the sun, sipping on tropical drinks, listening to the hottest music, and dancing with your new friends. It's the ultimate party scene that you won't want to miss!

But the fun doesn't stop at the beach. Miami Beach is also famous for its epic nightlife. With tons of bars, clubs, and lounges that stay open all night, the party never stops. You'll be dancing the night away to the latest music and partying with people from all over the world. And who knows, you may even run into a celebrity or two! If you're feeling adventurous, you can also try your hand at some thrilling water sports like jet-skiing, parasailing, or paddleboarding. Or maybe you're more of a shopaholic? Miami Beach has some of the most incredible shopping districts in the world, where you can indulge in some retail therapy and pick up some designer clothes, jewelry, and accessories.

But after 2 fatals shootings last week, Miami Beach has a spring break curfew. The curfew would be from 11:59 p.m. Sunday until 6 a.m. Monday, with an additional curfew likely to be put in place Thursday through next Monday, March 27. The curfew mainly affects South Beach, the most popular party location for spring breakers.

The mayor of Miami Beach, Gelber, said: ""We don't ask for spring break in our city. We don't want spring break in our city. It's too rowdy, it's too much disorder and it's too difficult to police."

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
