Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring Break!

Winter quarter has ended. It has yet to hit me that I have ten short weeks of college left as an undergrad. It seriously feels like it all just began. Everyone told me that three years would fly, and they were right! Since I’m not heading home until Monday, this weekend is going to be my “spring cleaning” weekend. I’m organizing my room and placing all things that will not be needed in the spring into boxes I have lying around. Mom and Dad are driving out for Easter, so I figure they can take them back home for me. I get so crazy during the spring quarter, and I won’t have much time to clean out my room, so I’m getting a head start. How insane is this? I’m beginning the moving out process!

It still is not technically Spring Break for me until I submit three assignments online, but it sure feels like Break! I plan on catching up on lots of sleep that I have been missing out on in the last ten weeks. It will be so great not to worry about anything (except job hunting!) for a couple weeks. I know many college students go on crazy Spring Break trips their last year of college, but I'm not too bummed to be heading East instead of South. I'm spending my Spring Break in New Jersey so I can get started on looking for jobs, and for the simple fact that I really enjoy my homeland. College is amazing, but I miss so many things about the East Coast. I miss real pizza, which I will be having Monday night for dinner. I miss the ocean and the sand – I’m so excited to go step foot on the beach again! I miss driving my car around – I know this one seems silly, but I really love driving around town with my music playing loudly. I’m an excellent car singer. And of course, I miss New York. I would much rather spend my Spring Break seeing three shows on Broadway than be spending time anywhere else. And if none of that makes people content with why I’m choosing the city over 80 degree weather…Bubbles (my cat) misses me quite a lot ☺

One thing great about Breaks is they are a chance to catch up with old friends. I only go home for a quick weekend once a quarter. Since I decided to go to school so far away, I have many people that I have to see over break – I have forgotten what some people look like! Lots of dinners, laughing, and reminiscing will be had by all in four short days! I can hardly wait.

Also, I have an update on yesterday's post. Some famous friends on twitter informed me that Pinkberry (Red Mango’s competitor) is much better (and their website has a cute jingle – check out the link!). I’m going to try this when I head to NYC next week, and I’ll let you know which one I like better. New frozen yogurt experiences make me smile. Have a wonderful end of the week everyone!
