Spring Break - The Ultimate College Checklist

T- 2 weeks until spring break, are you ready? Mentally yes, but physically no. The same amount of midterm preparation goes for spring break.

You probably have about three tests, 15 projects and an interview for your summer internship before you can truly start thinking about Spring Break.

Most people have already booked their round-trip tickets to Cabo and their bank accounts are dwindling as they order the latest $100 Frankie’s Bikinis.

The only thing missing that can’t be packed in my suitcase are those washboard Instagram abs I promised myself I would have this break. The pressures of spring semester are real, when spring break is just a preview of your summer bod.

Waking up at 8 a.m. for the third day of full legs at kickboxing will be worth it. Pass on the chocolate covered strawberries and feel proud you resisted the urge for today. Just under 3 weeks to go.

Next on the checklist is booking the pre-spring break spray tan- so either way, you have some contrast from the sand. After all, what is spring break without those hot beach pictures?

Most girls are already sharing secrets of gluten-free diets or trying the latest tea trend. The hardest part is giving up Thursday pasta nights and trying not to drink your weight every weekend leading up to break.

We are going to be so proud once we get through the stresses of school and can finally relax and live it up whatever you choose to do during the break.

Picture yourself sipping on a pina colada at Mango Deck making memories with all of your close friends and being far away from your weekly psychology papers.

Just remember, most of the state of Arizona will be in Mexico...so bring your A game. Time to get fit, tan and fun.

At the end of the day our parents aren’t too thrilled about us heading to Mexico but that week might be a week of questionable decisions. Make sure to stay hydrated, rally/nap when needed and have a Spring Break to remember.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
