Spring Break is a sacred time for all college students. Regardless of their "scene" or set of responsibilities, this break definitely comes at a great time for college students. Spring Break can be a time of complete utter mayhem or it can be a time of extreme relaxation; It can be a time to get things completely done or it can be a time to BE completely done, with everything. Either way, Spring Break is super special in our hearts, but one thing is for sure: we all do a few things during Spring Break that we end up regretting later. Here are the top 4 most popular things students regret after Spring Break.


1. "I regret not studying."

We all say we will study at least a few days out of Spring Break, but we never do! You know you're in complete denial about studying during Spring Break when you take your textbooks with you on a trip and purposely avoid looking at them during your entire trip. Let's face it, we all think we are going to study or get ahead on school work during this Spring Break... but do we? NO.

2. "I regret not relaxing."

Faced with the stress and anxiety of the Spring semester, we all look forward to Spring Break as a time when we could lay low and relax for a few days. We hope to take time to find a personal zen during this week. We think we're going to catch up on sleep, breathe in fresh air, and bond with nature... but do we? NO.

3. "I regret not staying in."

Spring Break means having a fun time right? The break is an excuse to catch up with friends, play some tunes, completely jam out for a few days. We all think that Spring Break will be a party-filled extravaganza filled with turnt activities the whole time. Spring Break is so crazy fun sometimes, that we vow to definitely stay in the next year... but do we? NO.

4. "I regret not staying off of Netflix."

"This spring break I'm going to be productive!" Yeah, right. We all go into break thinking that we will have so much free time to be responsible and get things done. But what do we actually spend this time on? Netflix. Our addiction to the video streaming service can be a big problem, one that encourages us to cancel our memberships... but do we? NO.

Yes, Spring Break is super fun and a time that can never truly be replaced. We all love it, we all live it, and we all learn from it... even if you regret them later. There's always next year, right?

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
