Where are you, Spring Break?


This post isn't even about my wonderful plans of spring break that will probably just consist of me waking up late, making a couple trips to the fridge and catching up with my old pal, television (some of you may be going somewhere warm, but I would like to point out that my apartment stays at a pleasant 70 degrees and that the travel channel can take care of the visuals). It may not be the ideal spring break (I admit actually traveling is far better than TV), but one thing in common for all of us students is that it means NO SCHOOL! I can manage to get by in those first weeks of the semester where you have a couple readings and homework assignments to keep up with. But... remember the first day of classes where you look at your syllabus and see all those hellish weeks ahead of you where a million things are due? I don't know about you, but I just put it in the back of my mind, since after all it's like a month away. Well it is officially time for those worries to work their way back into my cognitive thoughts. Seeing as I have too many things I have to get done than I have time for, it should be a great week. It is at times like this that I ask...

Where are you, Spring Break?

I hear ya! My "hellish weeks" just caught up to me. After this week, I'm pretty much screwed until Spring Break. So, I totally know what you're saying!

I agree! School is definitely at it's overwhelming stage. Thankfully, I'll be heading out of Wisconsin this year with my best friends to someplace warm. I don't know why I'm looking forward to it the most: to get away from school or to get away from all the snow and cold weather!

Yep, I completely agree. I like to play the "let's pretend the assignment doesn't exist" game until the week it's due. My schedule is going to suck until spring break. Also, we're in the same philosophy discussion.
