Spring Break: T&R (travel and relax)

It's here!! Well spring break that is... Tomorrow I will be flying back to my beloved California for a week of relaxation in that Cali sun. What's on my to-do list? Well, glad you asked :) BEACH, BEACH, and more BEACH. This is definitely what I miss the most when I am away at school, and each time I'm home I make sure that I get my beachy fix. My friend Elise will also be staying with me for a couple of days which I am also extremely excited for. I visited her last year in her hometown of New Orleans, and we had a blast. I think travel is one of the greatest things you can do, because it allows you to get out of your comfort zone, meet new people, and try things you have never done before. It is so liberating and allows you to grow, and that is why I do it as much as possible. In the words of Saint Augustine, "The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page." So get out there! Since I will be going back to the west coast, I am still going to try to go somewhere new! My friend Jenna and I have decided that we are going to take the Pacific Surfliner (train) up to Santa Barbara. I. am. stoked. Another important aspect of spring break: relaxation. Do something that will let you take a load off! Whether it be a day at the beach, a massage (which is something else I'm planning on doing), or better yet NOTHING at all, make sure that you find peace and joy in whatever it may be. This will allow you to temporarily forget about school/work, and help you recharge and refocus so that later you can start anew! I hope that you all have a fun and relaxing break. Safe travels!! :)
