Top 5 Things To Accomplish Over Break

Christmas break is a time of joy. It is a time to take a real break from college and just take time to relax. Here is a list I have came up with of the top things to do over break.

1. Sleep

Break is a magical time away from school work to catch up on sleep. Forget the endless hours you spent awake working on school work and just rest. Sleep in till noon. Catch up on the sleep you need.

2. Catch Up On TV Shows


Break also allows for you to catch up on on the TV shows clogging up your DVR. Finish those seasons. Watch all of the finales. Find out who had won those reality shows you have been neglecting.

3. Binge Watch

Eventually, you will run out of TV shows you have recorded. That allows for the great activity known as binge watching. Over break, binge watching becomes some sort of sport. It is almost a competition to see how many series you can finish in the month long break. Good Luck.

4. Love Your Pets

While at school, you miss out on the opportunity to love your pets on a daily basis. Break gives you the chance to love and pet your animals all day every day. They missed you just as much as you missed them.

5. See Old Friends

Being home over break gives you the opportunity to catch up with old friends. In most cases, you probably haven't seen these friends in months so take advantage of it. Go hang out, grab lunch, see a movie. Anything. You won't regret it.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
