7 Stages Of Spring Break, As Told By 'SpongeBob'

Ever feel like you don't want to go back to school? Like you'd rather lay in bed all day binging on This is Us and lazily eating frozen pizza while procrastinating five assignments? Or like you wish it was "spring break forevaa"? This is deemed normal for college students and the struggle to keep motivated, I find especially in the spring, is a challenge. Fortunately, we've gone over the halfway hump and are on our way. to successfully completing this semester!

1. Leaving your "college" friends

This sucks because it feels like forever since you will see them again, except it's actually only a week. But once that summer hits...

2. Getting used to FREE food all day

When you're home on break, it's great, mostly because you will get an endless stream of food from the fridge, that you didn't have to buy with your own money or meal points that you're trying to scavenge until the end of the semester.

3. It's not that time yet



You still have a few more weeks of wearing comfy clothes, throwing your hair in a bun and being cuddled up before you need to have your summer bod ready and will be laying out by the pool every day.

4. Free time is a thing again


You might have some work to catch up on but other than that, no plans besides catching up on laundry and snuggling with your doggies until spring break is over again. Having nothing to stress about is honestly such a relief.

5. Hobbies


You get to work on your own hobbies... like remember when you used to read... for fun?!

6. Binge watching shows

Remember how all semester everyone was saying how great "This Is Us" is? Well, now is the time to catch up on all the shows that you have been missing out on.

7. Seeing people from high school


This is probably one of the most awkward encounters especially if you aren't especially close to any of those people you spent four years in that building with but then randomly see them around town like "do I say hi.. or do I pretend to ignore you?" Awkward!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
