5 Ways to Make It through Your Long Drive Home

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

Happy Spring Break, collegiettes! If you’re going home to SoCal, or already planning your drive back to UCD. Here are a few ways to help you pass the time:

1. Bring a friend along. If you don’t have a friend who could come with you, check out the Davis Facebook ride share page. Fun car games:

  • Never Have I Ever
  • Take turns saying a word until you make up a story
  • I Spy
  • Would You Rather
  • Celebrity – give clues to which celebrity you are without saying the celebrity’s name

2. Make a killer playlist, full of all of your favorite songs.

3. Make a #tbt playlist – Aaron Carter and Hilary Duff, anyone?

4. Make a few pit stops at famous restaurants. Need a few reccomendations? Try these websites:

5. Download an interesting Podcast. If you need a suggestion, try Serial. From the creators of talk show This American Life, Serial tells the exhilarating story of a murder investigation over one season. Serial is free and can be downloaded on iTunes or on serialpodcast.org.
