Congratulations! You have now completed the quarter and deserve a break! It can be difficult to decide what to do during this Spring Break because it’s so short. But don’t worry, here are 10 activities to make sure you get the most out of your break:
- Travel
-
If you’re feeling adventurous, then don’t hesitate to travel and make new memories! If you have the opportunity, then definitely think about it. We only live once and we have to make the most out of every opportunity we can. I am happy to say that I traveled spontaneously this Spring Break and do not regret it — it was the best decision I made. Explore new places safely!
- Amusement Parks
-
Take a trip to one of the many amusement parks that California has to offer! There’s Disneyland, Universal Studios Hollywood, Six Flags, Knott’s Berry Farm and many more to choose from to hang out with friends and family.
Jocelyn Hsu / Spoon - Visit Different Museums
-
If you’re looking to go somewhere peaceful and relaxing, then I suggest heading to a museum and looking at the masterpieces they have on display. I recently went to the Museum of Dream Space and it’s definitely worth a visit.
- Take A Trip To Descanso Garden In La Cañada Flintridge, California
-
It’s Springtime and you know what that means: flowers are blooming! Enjoy a beautiful stroll through the many gardens they have to offer. Get ready to take pictures and enjoy the view.
- Beach Day
-
Going to the beach is always fun! There are many options on what to do at the beach. If swimming isn’t your thing, don’t worry! You can go to the Santa Monica Pier and hang out in the Pacific Park or go to Heal the Bay Aquarium. Another option is having a bonfire and making s’mores! There are endless possibilities.
- Catch A Movie
-
Maybe you haven’t had enough time to see a movie recently with everything. But now you do! Hang out with a couple of friends or family members and watch a movie to pass the time.
- Have A Picnic
-
Grab your friends or family members and take a trip to your local park to enjoy some delicious food. A little potluck is a great way to start your Spring Break.
- Have A Spa Day – Self Care
-
This day is all about you! You deserve it after taking all those finals. Now it’s time to relax and treat yourself. Sleep in, have a bubble bath, dance your heart away, just do everything you haven’t been able to do this quarter.
- Dance Your Heart Away
-
It’s probably been a while for some of us since we last went to a party or an event to dance, but that doesn’t mean you can’t do it in your home. You can always grab some friends and organize a little dance party to make new fun memories.
- Staying Active
-
If staying at home isn’t your thing then don’t worry, you can always go out and stay active! Some options include going to the gym, hiking, cycling, attending Zumba classes or finding anything that you enjoy doing. Just remember to be careful and stay hydrated.
