Oh how I love spring break. It seems as if it happened at just the right time. I've been overwhelmed with work for this entire semester, and I was pretty much on overload by the time spring break rolled around. Now I'm in Florida and I'm loving it. The only problem is that I stll have a ton of work to do. Now matter where I go, work always follows me. Yeah, I know that's true for everyone in any capacity, but I really wish that I could have some time to myself without that little voice in the back of my head reminding me how many papers I still have to write.
The reason that I'm in Florida is because my father lives here. I'm used to coming down here, and I enjoy it, but I could never live down here. The lifestyle people adopt here is just not me. But I forgot how great it is to look out the window and see palm trees. It's warm and sunny, and the breeze is cool. The weather and the scenery are just incredible down here. I take a walk every night and just admire the area and revel in the fact that I'm in shorts and sandals. My plan for the rest of break is to enjoy Florida, My dad, my stepmom, food that doesn't come from Tree Tops and attempt to get a lot of work done. I hope everyone else is having a great time too!
P.S. One of my favorite places down here: Jamba Juice. If you don't know what that is, wait until it is warm again and go to Whole Foods on South Street. There's one in there.

After reading all of the posts regarding spring break, I've decided this is my favorite, because it most resembles what spring break should be.
A. You were not in the same state, let alone city of your college.
B. You are so far away there is a temperature change
C. I don't know what Jamba Juice is, but it sounds delicious.
I wish the Spring Break was more break like. I definitely could have used one. However, when you work in a restaurant and a learning center there is no such things as spring break. Because people are always hungry and people can always learn.
So as I stick up my imaginary middle finger to all those teachers who thought we'd have so much time to get work done, I will smugly write papers and coordinate projects and remember a simpler time of beaches, family, and lakes.
It sounds like you had a great time and I'm glad you did. Spring break is supposed to be a break and you made sure you got exactly what the word was intended for. Also, I commend you on ignoring that little voice in the back of your mind reminding you of how much work you have to do. If you were not able to get a chance to breath, then you would still be in overload mode and you would have burned out by now.
