Ideal Spring Break

February 24, 2011 Comments : 4

One of the biggest events in college is actually something that doesn’t even take place at college. What am I talking about? Spring Break, of course. It seems like the majority of students head due South for some warm, sunny weather during their week-long break…since SB is usually in March, its a little bit necessary to head far South in order to find some warm weather!

Ovar _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push([‘_setAccount’, ‘UA-20949449-1’]);
_gaq.push([‘_trackPageview’]);

(function() {
var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true;
ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘https://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’;
var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();

I’ve only been somewhere “tropical” on Spring Break one time, on an Eastern Caribbean cruise…and it was amazing. What I’d give to go back right now….ah. I honesty don’t know what’s stopping me from going on a trip every year…if you get enough people together, its really inexpensive! (Maybe not a cruise, necessarily…but a hotel room on the FL coast isn’t too much!). Well, I figured out what it is this year that’s keeping me from traveling somewhere warm: my Spring Break is a week earlier than pretty much every other college or law school in the country…and all my friends are still in school. That’s no fun!

To keep my sanity (because, Lord knows law school makes you crazy)…I’m headed down South to Wilmington for a long weekend. Sure, the temperature is about the same as it is here in Coastal VA, but there’s just something about that place that always makes me happy. I’ve already decided I’m going to live there one day…and even picked out the beach house on Wrightsville Beach that I intend to buy…haha.

In an ideal world (where my friends and I were (a) rich and (b) had the same Spring break), I would choose to go to any of these places, in no particular order:
1. St. Thomas-I’ve been here once, and I’d go back in a heartbeat. LOVED every minute of it…perfect beaches, temperatures, gorgeous island!

Picture I took of Magen’s Bay…doesn’t even do it justice.   

2. Puerto Rico-Been here too…but I was on a cruise and only had a few hours to explore. There’s so much culture here. Not to mention a rainforest, amazing Sangria, and great nightlife! Oh yeah, and pretty beaches.

3. Punta Canta, Dominican Republic-Never been here, but everyone I know who’s been to the DR has loved it!

4. Antigua-Always wanted to go here…don’t worry, I will one day 😉

Clearly I want to go somewhere tropical and nowhere else. Of all the places I could go on Spring Break, I’d rather choose sun, warm weather, and beaches. Its only a week, and I just want to: relax, get a tan, have fun, party, and take pretty pictures. Obviously.

Where are you going on Spring Break? Where would you LIKE to go on Spring Break if there were no limitations?

-xoxo

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️
