My First Post-College Spring Break


I can't say I ever attended a Spring Break event as pictured above, but this year is definitely different. My friends are all very jealous that I still get Spring Break, but then I remind me them of what I have to put up with, on what is very often, a daily basis.

I went to college at Baylor in Waco, Tx and this was pretty exciting because that meant only an hour and a half drive to my favorite city in the world, Austin. My friends and I would travel down south every year to attend a few days of SXSW activities, but that wasn't even during our Spring Break! I think maybe I went home to Dallas for Spring Break? Or one year I flew to see my best friend who goes to Auburn, and one year I went gambling in Shreveport with my grandma. Its very obvious that I live an exciting life, I know... I am typing this as I watch my cat stretch and am "Ooooh"-ing about it.

But did I miss the boat on the crazy typical Spring Break?
Probably.

Do I care?
Nope.

I now live in Austin, and of course my school takes its Spring Break during SXSW (thank GOD) so I am experiencing the event as an Austinite this year. I love it, but its already gone by so fast. Its MONDAY. That means I need to either slow down and relax or back in every single thing that I can before Sunday night hits.

I don't know what teachers are supposed to do over Spring Break. Probably relax? I also still think of teachers as being moms and dads with families for some reason, so maybe like, family vacations. I don't know. Either way, its a strange phenomena, a 23 year old who is not in college on Spring Break.
