We sat on all the rollercoasters and, apart from my friend passing out in one of them, it was a ton of fun. We also got drenched in water after one of the water rides and spent the rest of our day in soaked jeans. Regardless, it was great fun!<\/p>\n<p>This was my first birthday without my parents so I was really grateful I got to spend it with my best friend and her family. I felt right at home and I&#8217;ll always cherish the memories of my first Spring Break at college!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"absolute\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full gap-2 items-center justify-center\">\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-155 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/2024\/04\/01\/my-spring-break\/img_9614\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9614-225x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9614-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9614-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9614-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9614.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/2024\/04\/01\/my-spring-break\/img_9105\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9105-225x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9105-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9105-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9105-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/diya\/files\/2024\/03\/IMG_9105.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"w-full pt-2 md:pt-0 dark:border-white\/20 md:border-transparent md:dark:border-transparent md:w-[calc(100%-.5rem)]\">\n<div class=\"relative flex h-full flex-1 flex-col\">\n<div class=\"absolute bottom-full left-0 right-0\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex w-full items-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I spent my spring break on the beaches of West Palm Beach with my best friend Alli.
