Hi guys, I hope you had an amazing month of February! With Spring Break coming up next week, I thought I’d share some things that you could do if you have any spare time. Spring Break is a time to destress, rejuvenate, and catch up on some much-needed rest. Whether you’re traveling, heading home, or staying on campus, there is something to do for everyone.
- Catch up on sleep.
Remember, spring break isn’t just about adventure and fun—it’s also an opportunity to prioritize self-care, including getting those much-needed Zzz’s! During the academic year, students often experience sleep deprivation due to busy schedules, exams, and social activities. Spring break provides an opportunity to replenish lost sleep. Adequate rest allows your body and mind to recover, repair tissues, and recharge energy levels.
- Dive into a good book.
Visit your local library and discover romance novels, mysteries, or inspiring biographies. Reading is a fantastic way to escape into different worlds during spring break.
- Work on assignments.
If you’re like me, you might have projects or exams that are due the week we come back from Spring Break. ☹ However, the smart thing I would suggest to do is catch up on assignments and study so that way you won’t feel overwhelmed when you come back. Don’t overwork yourself and be sure to take lots of breaks for self-care.
- Treat Yourself.
After surviving seven weeks of the Spring semester, you deserve to treat yourself. Whether that may be buying yourself food, an outfit at the mall, or concert tickets, buy yourself something nice to celebrate!
- Spend Time with Family & Friends
Sometimes we take our loved ones for granted. Spring break reminds us to appreciate the people who matter most. Spring break provides an opportunity to deepen your bonds with loved ones. Whether it’s catching up with siblings, sharing stories with grandparents, or laughing with friends, these moments create lasting memories. So, make the most of your spring break by nurturing these precious relationships. Whether it’s a heartfelt conversation, a group outing, or a simple hug, cherish the time spent with family and friends.
Overall, please take time for yourself to relax and recharge over Spring break and hopefully, we all get to enjoy some nice weather!
