Spring is coming upon us, which also means that spring break is somewhere around the corner. Maybe you're not hitting up the sunny beach this year, maybe you're staying at home. That doesn't mean you can't have the best spring break yet.

So without further ado, here are some ways you can spice up your staycation!

1. Spring Cleaning

It's in the name. Having a clean work-space does wonders for your productivity. In addition, with a little creativity, remodeling or revamping your room doesn't have to take too much time or money.

Pro Tip:Fairy lights are a must. They'll add a warm glow to just about any corner of the house.

2. Explore the great outdoors.

Just because it's a staycation, doesn't mean you have to stay inside. Go on a hike, and take your friends with you! Embrace spontaneity and adventure. Check out this picturesque four mile hike at the Indian Seats


3. Movie Marathon

Now that you have plenty of free time, why not treat yourself to a movie marathon? Last year, I decided to do just this with my friends during break, and I had my first "Star Wars" experience. Needless to say, I've been hopelessly hooked on "Star Wars" since.

4. Go shopping!


Spring cleaning means going through your closet and preparing for the new season. Preparing for the new season means buying new clothes. So, logically, spring cleaning only means one thing... spring shopping! Worried abut spending? Check out a thrift store. There will be no shortage of fashionable, unique and affordable picks there.

5. Have a photoshoot.

Why wait for a special occasion to strike a pose? Grab your friends, make a cute backdrop and smile big. There's no better way to commemorate a meaningful staycation.

6. Amp up your fitness game.

Try out that new juice cleanse everyone's been raving about. Sign up for some Flywheel classes (that you might regret the next morning when your legs die of soreness). The options are endless.

7. Attend a concert.

There's nothing like hearing your favorite artist live for the first time. But, if you're anything like me, you probably have several favorite artists, and you just can't see them all. Be extra adventurous, and attend a free concert of an artist you've never heard of before!

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!
