Spring Break Rewind: 3 Photos Of The Beautiful South Padre Island
Nick Mercer

So this article is a week late but I'm going to share my spring break experience with everyone anyway. If you did not read my last article and even if you did, I would like to remind you I went to South Padre Island, Texas. I was there for a total of 5 days and it was quite a relaxing trip and I had a lot of fun. The weather was pretty much perfect everyday, which was nice since I live in Michigan and it has been quite cold the last couple weeks.

Surprisingly, it was not as busy as I expected it to be which was actually nice. We also went the week before most of the big name concerts were scheduled for, so the crowds were significantly smaller. If you are ever thinking of going on a spring break trip in the future, I highly suggest South Padre. For the price I paid, I would say its definitely worth it.

I'm just going to share a few photos I took while I was down there.

This photo is the view we had from our condo looking toward the beach.

This is a photo walking along the beach with the Gulf of Mexico to the right.

This is a jellyfish, these little guys were all over the beaches so people had to be very careful when walking on the sand to avoid stepping on them.

That is about all I have to say about my spring break trip. If anyone else has some interesting places or stories to tell, go ahead and comment. I'd love to hear what everyone was up to over break!

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
