Guide to the Ultimate Spring Break

Written by Asmi Chinauriya

Spring Break is the ultimate “light at the end of the tunnel” for many college students, as it indicates the end of midterms. Hence, it becomes that much more important to make sure that you make this week worth every moment. It all has to start with a plan. It can be to lie in bed for 17 hours straight or a plan to go to parties. Whether it is a trip or additional time for you to lock in, there needs to be something in mind that can serve as the skeleton of this Break. Though I have to admit spontaneous events can still be fun, it is also important that this time doesn’t end up becoming a whole week of what “could have been.” Additionally, keep in mind the money that it takes to get any of these plans in action! It is also essential to think about where these plans are going to come to life. As we live in Delaware, I can think of many people who don’t want to run into the people they see every day on their vacation. Thus, it is very important to pick a place where you can truly enjoy your life! While having all the fun and rest you possibly can, safety is something that you must always be aware of. The buddy system is a great way to ensure that you have fun, but also do your best to stay safe! However, having fun doesn’t necessarily have to be the main focus of everyone’s spring break. It is also okay and normal to have a clear sight of the future and spend this time as a means to get ahead. This can mean getting ready for the rest of the semester, but also looking at the state of the career you want to pursue and how close you are to achieving it. Having a look back at your goals and spending this time to enhance your future is a wonderful way to spend this time. Finally, you must give yourself time between your plans and the start of the semester once again. There is going to be a need for rest and a mind reset before you come back on campus, and it is very important to pay attention to that. Stay safe and have fun, everyone!!!
