8 Reasons Why Spring is the Best Season on College Campuses

That's right. I said it. Spring rocks. You may be thinking, Hannah how could you say spring is the best season on a college campus? Everyone knows fall is the real winner here. Well, I am here to tell you that you are wrong. Very, very wrong. Wondering why spring is the best? Well here you go.

1. People actually start to go outside again.

During the long and treacherous winter months, hardly anyone goes outside unless necessary. Your entire body will completely freeze otherwise, why risk it when you can stay inside and binge watch friends? As soon as it hits 50 degrees though, you realize there actually are more than 20 people at Ball State. Everyone walks outside to get to class instead of taking indoor shortcuts, and not to mention there's people hanging hammocks from trees, because why not?

2. St. Patrick's Day.

Even if you're not Irish (I'm like a fourth Irish. Niall Horan, I'm coming for you) you still celebrate St. Patrick's Day, because who doesn't like to dress in all green and have an excuse to go to a party in the middle of the week?

3. Baseball season starts.

Let's be honest, even if you are not a fan of baseball, everyone is a fan of baseball boys. Am I right, ladies?

5. Concert season begins.

Concert season is upon us people! The best concerts are usually in the summer, but they start popping up again when it hits spring, and who doesn't like concerts?

6. Spraaang break.

Time to go spend your life savings in Frat Lauderdale or PCB! Or, maybe you were like me and didn't get to go somewhere super awesome and cool for spring break. I personally stayed in 40 degree Illinois and annoyed my dog. Either way, you get a week off from classes and that's just great.

7. Longer days.

An extra hour in the day can never hurt. More time to get your millions of assignments done. Or more time to procrastinate on those assignments. It's a win win.

8. Dogs. Everywhere.

Do I even have to explain myself? Warm weather equals dog walking, which means dogs everywhere. There are an endless amount of dogs on campus to pet and to try to sneak into your dorm.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
