Welcome back to the Midwest: a land full of potholes, bi-polar weather, and college-induced stress. If you are also suffering from spring break withdrawals and unsure of how you’re going to make it eight more weeks, remain calm. Here are some ways to feel like you’re still on vacation right here in the QC!
Daiquiri Factory
What a home away from home (and away from 3rd Street). Going across the river is going to be 110% worth it for a frozen piece of paradise. Whether you’re sitting inside or outside, it’s easy to pretend that these frosty drinks are coming to you where it’s sunny and 75!
Sun Tan City
Maybe you went to Florida and got an incredible tan that you were so proud of, and then came home and realized you look like a lizard because that tan was actually a burn (always use sunscreen, kids!)… Good news, Sun Tan City is right around the corner and ready to save the day! Whether you’re a fan of spray tans, or enjoy that 20 minute nap you get to take in the nice warm beds it’s easy to pretend you’re getting that flawless tan in the warm sunshine!
*WARNING* Please look into the health implications of tanning before making this choice!
Niabi Zoo
Awesome animals seem to be everywhere that is not the QC… Maybe you saw a dolphin, monkey, or some other bad ass animal while traveling. Thank God we have the zoo. Opening back up on April 11, the QC will be blessed with the opportunity to hang with big cats and other animals. Take a day to escape the Ambrose squirrels and enjoy the little piece of wildlife we have here.
Cheer up ladies! Summer is a few short weeks away and I prmoise, you can make it!These are just some simple suggestions, but get creative with your friends. A dorm beach themed party or making a game out of Tinder can be plenty rewarding!
