Going Home for Spring Break, As Told by Parks and Rec

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Vanderbilt chapter.
The good news: Spring break is here! 
The bad news: Parks and Rec is over forever.
 
Here’s a combination of the two to capture what it’s like to head home for the week. There are perks and drawbacks, but you can always escape to Pawnee by binge watching Leslie, Ron, and the rest of the Parks crew on Netflix.

When you finish your last class and head to the airport.

When you walk into your house after Southwest delayed your flight for three hours and FINALLY see your dog again.

When you run into annoying people from your high school while trying to go about your business.

When your mom tries to break your diet of Randwiches and warm cookies.
 

And when you realize that you didn’t do any of the homework you planned on and have to do it Sunday night…

Have an AMAZING spring break everyone! See y’all next week :) 

 

Stacey Oswald, originally from South Florida, came to Vanderbilt as a member of the class of 2015 and got involved with HerCampus her freshman year. She became assistant editor that year and is now the Campus Correspondent for Vanderbilt HC as a sophomore. Stacey is currently a columnist for Ask Miss A- Nashville and the life section of The Hustler. She's also very involved in her sorority, Kappa Delta, as well as Invisible Children. Outside of school and her extracurriculars, Stacey finds happiness in many sources, the most crucial being exercise and the sun. She loves to attend exercise classes and is an avid runner; she recently completed the Country Music Half Marathon. She also loves Vitamin D, especially when on the beach- though of course, she only soaks up the sun after applying SPF. A few of the things Stacey couldn't live without? Good food (especially from Sweet Cece's, Bricktops, and Samurai Sushi), great books (The Hypnotist's Love Story is a recent favorite), her family back in Florida, her wonderful boyfriend, and all of the great friends she's made at Vanderbilt.
