Spring break always seems to sneak up on us and we never account for the fact that these spring break trips need some sort of planning. So, although we had every intention of peaking this year and going all out for spring break…that’s just not how it worked out. But, these last minute trips are always the best, even if there are some classic struggles to work out with friends.

 

1. Money

Ah, yes. It would be a lot easier if my bank account weren’t negative right now. 

2. Different schedules

Yeah, we have different spring breaks, and yes we have certain appointments we can’t miss while we’re home, BUT this spring break plan WILL WORK.

3. Booking a flight

Honestly, I’ll just start walking now.

 

4. Praying your fake ID works

Ugh, one of the many struggles of being 20. Fake ID, don’t fail me now.

 

5. Stressin’ over that Spring Break bod

How many crunches does it take to burn off that calzone?

 

6. Planning activities

Who are we kidding? Let’s just skip this struggle and assume we’ll be at the pool 24/7.

 

7. Booking your hotel last minute

OH, there’s actually one hotel room left in the whole state? Great, I will take it.

 

8. Not being old enough to rent a car

Again, the struggles of being a 20 year old. 

 

9. Under-budgeting

I’m going to come back drowning in debt. Oh well, at least I’ll be tan.
