During Spring Break, some people go to different places across the country or even outside of the country. Some go on service trips to different places, some go to St. Louis for the MVC tourney. Others go to places with warmer climates, like Florida or California or Padre. I thought it would be a smart idea to...go to Minnesota for the third straight year :P
However, I really can't complain about it at all. While my weekend at home was my "vacation," I would consider this to be sort of a "retreat" in a way. The first half of my final semester has been kinda rough (as I have shared/vented/complained with others), and it has pretty much had me counting down to Spring Break since the beginning of February. I definitely didn't have the most wild spring break, but it was definitely the most fulfilling for me. In addition to this, it came at the perfect time, as it gave me a chance to clear my head for an extensive period of time...look back at all of my mistakes, things I did well, things I can improve on, and other aspects of my life. Spending a week in a different state, just being able to relax for an entire week, get away from school, and hang out with a few friends along the way has been fulfilling...and that includes our 5+ hour fantasy baseball draft.
The last half of the semester will be busy, with various school projects, Relay for Life, job hunting, etc. But this past week has definitely been a refresher for me, filled with good friends, relaxing activities...and much colder weather than other places. However, this will definitely help me before I head into the final one and a half months of my college career, which is exciting...and frightening.
