It’s that time of year again… Spring Break. All testing is done, no more homework to do, and the best of it all - no school for a week. Even though it’s only for a week, you can do so many things during that time. If you’re like me and are going to be bored out of your mind, here are some ideas that will lift your spirits.
#3. Playing board games with family
Teenagers now don’t spend a lot of time with their families. They’re either out with friends or barricaded in their rooms. Take a break from your phones and hang out with your family! Friends come and go, but family is forever. Play Uno, candy land, spoons (best/worst game ever) basically any game to bond over.
#2. Hang out with friends
I know this is something that everyone’s going to do but spending time with friends and making memories is the best thing. I know going out to the movies or going to the mall is all there is to do here, but there are other things you can do. Have a sleepover and stay up all night, go to Downtown Birmingham and have a photoshoot or just walk around and explore the outside world!
#1. SLEEP
This is probably the most important thing you need to do! Everyone is pretty much sleep deprived and don’t know who they are anymore. You deserve to sleep, given you have worked so hard up to this point. JUST SLEEEEP.
Overall, just have fun this break, enjoy yourself, and try not to think about how we have to prep for exams once we come back.
