You know what the week of class before spring break and American Idol have in common? People stopped caring.
I’m suffering bad. I visited my doctor about it and he diagnosed me with IDGAF. My parents were a bit devastated when they found out. Symptoms include procrastination and excessive day dreaming during lecture. Remedies for this ailment are turning up!
I sought treatment over my three day weekends. But it’s kind of like getting free samples at Sam’s Club. They’re just a teaser you can never really get too hyped off of. I’m sure many of you also do not have classes on Friday. As of lately, it’s simply not enough and keeps you wanting more. So Spring Break is the bulk order of college memories to cash in on.
As anxious as I am for Spring Break to arrive, I’m grateful it’s still a few more days away. Rather than me writing this article and reminiscing about the liver I almost lost back in February. Remember that, how horrible it was when Spring Break took place so far away from the Spring season we were practically sharing Winter Break with grade school? Well, our voices were heard and some change was made about the issue. So thank you to whoever is responsible.
Don’t feel bummed if you aren’t going anywhere interesting. I’m sure you can still find thanks in not having to listen to that one kid in class that always speaks and gets the WTF look from his classmates. Here’s a suggestion to make time spent at home much better. Most important, avoid being glued to Facebook, Twitter, and Instrgram. You’ll only feel more pathetic when you see your friends getting Trojan Henna tattoos in PC letting everyone know they’re available for the week. Or enjoying the lenient dress code in Miami that works more in a woman’s favor to properly even out that t-shirt tan.
And to my travelers, be safe of course, but you better make the highlight reel. Go hard for those that couldn’t. Annihilate any scrubs in Beer Pong. No redemption! Fist pump like you’ve never fist pumped before (if you still do that I guess). You might not be able to find a swimming pool full of liquor to dive in neither. But you can substitute it with a bath tub or at least make a fish bowl. Poor out some libations for your homeboy or homegirl that stayed back to spend more quality time at their nine-to-five. And when Drake comes on, let the world know “we started from the bottom, now we here!”
