With Spring Break already over I’m sure we’ll all miss it, but Her Campus Emerson wants to share what we did over our glorious week off. Hopefully, in this way it stays in our memories a little longer to help us finish out the remaining of the semester. Some of us are shared our high-lights and low-lights but here are the activities (or not) that our staff was up to last week:

St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner, so it’s time to figure out how you’ll incorporate a pop of green into your look. If you want to look festive without drawing a cheesy shamrock on your face, here’s the perfect alternative. The first thing you’re going to do is prime your eyelids.

This may seem like an unnecessary step, but trust me, its worth it! READ MORE

We’ve all been there: you have a big event coming up where you have to go all out and do your best. Maybe you have to perform a song or a dance number, or perform in a championship game, or maybe just do really well on a final exam. No matter what you have to do, you’re really nervous, and probably having some doubts about whether you’ll ace this big challenge. Have no fear: there is a playlist for that. These songs were made to motivate, and hopefully, while you’re singing and dancing along, you’ll start to believe they were made to motivate you personally. At the very least, they’ll distract from the butterflies flapping furiously around your stomach. READ MORE

When I first arrived at Emerson College this semester, I can honestly say I was thrown off. I had never been exposed to so much cigaret smoke and ironic eyewear. And I found myself out of the loop for being unaware of some secret boy code that pants should be cuffed at all times. Transferring from Maine, my niche had fallen amongst oversized flannels and Carhartt pants- cuffed pants were simply a 'no'. READ MORE
