What If Every College Had The Same Spring Break?

Spring break or spring headache?

Spring break.

The midpoint of the spring semester and the one week that everyone looks forward to in college. But there’s a catch. Many students have common visions of having all their friends from other schools together, maybe sitting on a beach or at some extravagant all-inclusive resort in a tropical place. Unfortunately for many, that isn’t the case. I am more than sure that every college student at some point will wonder what it’d be like if all colleges had the same week off for spring break!

That’s one of the biggest headaches with spring break. Every school has their certain week off whether it’s the first week of March or last week of March or anytime in between. In most cases, everyone ends up at such different schools that it’s hard to find someone with the same spring break as you which can get really annoying!

Luckily enough for me, I get to go to college in a place where people go on spring break, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that all my friends are visiting during the same week I have off. Actually, I personally don’t know any of my friends that have the same break as me and I have to say, it absolutely sucks! Even if we do plan for visits on each others’ spring breaks, it’s not everyone’s break anymore which means class and school activities conflict with schedules.

Of course, everyone wishes spring break would be the same but that doesn’t mean you can’t still have fun when your friends visit! Show them how your school lives it up on the weekend and instead make your own "spring break."

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
