springBREAK

Spring Break is coming up-I know you guys are aware of that fact- and I'm so EXCITED! Not because I have any special plans, but just to have a break. The only crummy thing about breaks is right before it, we all have a buttload of work to do such as studying for exams, writing papers, and etc. But, I'm not here to complain about that; I think having all that work is nice, for a lack of better term, because it makes us more grateful for our breaks(work hard, play hard).
Work that I have this week is:
-Floral Exam (Monday)[done]
-English Rough Draft (Wed.)[still in progress]
-Morality & Justice Paper (Fri.) [still in progress]
Compared to others, I think my workload isn't that bad, if I stick to my plan and not procrastinate.
ANYWHO... I'm really excited for break. I usually don't get this excited, but I'm so PUMPED to go back home and see my family and friends.
Originally, my friend, Kalika (I love her name, it's so unique and fun to say), and I were going to go Myrtle Beach for a week with some of her UVA friends, who are just sweethearts. She said I could invite anyone, but I there wasn't anyone I could really invite. My best friend, Tess, has school that week, so that wasn't an option. And, I usually hang out with guys (they are easier to hang out with- no offense to girls, but they don't gossip or do that chit chat business like the majority of girls I know with the exception of a few); and my guy friends kind of get a little crazy when it comes to beaches and parties... so, that wasn't an option. But, I was totally game to go with her UVA friends and her.
As it turned out, four were able to go (due to parents approval/disapproval) including Kalika and me, which is totally fine because we decided it would be a girls' retreat; plus, we downgraded to a condo instead of a house.
But, then another barrier seemed to arise... we had to be at least 21 to sign for it. None of us are 21. We know people that are 21, but they are guys and after getting HYPED about having a girls' retreat, we kind of didn't want boys to come-no offense to any male readers.
So, Myrtle Beach wasn't an option any more.
As much I wanted to go, I guess it's fine that we aren't going because I get to stay home and hang out with my little brother.
If I went, I would have been gone from Monday to Thursday, which is a big chunk of Spring Break and my brother would have been upset with me that I was gone for so long.
So, everything worked out for the best.
I mean, there is always summer time if we want to go to the beach.

How about you guys... Are you doing anything exciting for Spring Break?

  1. I was going to go to the beach too, but it didn't work out either. So now I really have no idea what I'm going to do all week other than relax and enjoy my time off :)

  2. I had really nothing planned other than to hang with my family and friends that i haven't seen in awhile. It'll be nice to have some time off.

    PS - I have four exams, a quiz, and a paper due this week. :)
