You Don’t Need the Beach to Have a Fun Spring Break

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BU chapter.

All of your friends are packing their bikinis and sunglasses and your sitting on your dorm bed feeling really bummed out. Okay, so you can’t afford to go to a resort in the Caribbean for spring break. You may beg your parents to let you go, but in the end you know you just can’t. You imagine all of your friends posting their cute and fun looking instagrams on the beach holding a margarita. 

Don’t get too depressed. You can have your own beach vacation at home! If you live on the east coast, it’ll probably still be winter despite the deceiving label of “spring” break. You can’t tan… so what?! You can snuggle on your couch with your favorite blanket and pet. Netflix is a girl’s best friend. If you really want the spring break experience, buy some piña colada mix and whip up a batch! You can add a little something extra to give it that… kick. 

If you live on the west coast… who are you kidding? You don’t need an exotic spring break! You have beaches, sunshine, and hot surfer guys. If you’re complaining about being home for spring break in California… you can leave. 

Don’t be upset over not getting the whole “spring break experience” in college. There are plenty of times for adventures in the future. Just relax and enjoy some home cooked meals. Staying home during break is underrated!
