Spring Break is finally here!!! As much as I love school, I desperately needed a break from all the work and drama that comes with living with a bunch of 20-somethings.

When Spring Break is discussed earlier in the year, everyone has very high expectations. This happened to us this year. My 4 roommates and I were so excited about planning a trip for the week we had off. We had all the ideas and plans in the making and then we realized there was one thing we didnt plan out....where all this money was going to come from. Spring Break plans really put the funds in your bank account into perspective. We finally decided on going to the only place that we could all afford.........home. Even though we were bummed that we couldn't go away for Spring Break, I am absolutely thrilled to be home in NJ. I haven't seen my parents since Christmas break so I am very excited that I get to spend some quality time with them before I go back to New Hampshire.

My Spring Break plans aren't very exciting but they consist of work, being with my family and friends, and making sure that I have a job for this summer. Not all that thrilling I know, but it's still nice to be able to be in my own town again even if it's only for a week.

Easter was amazing this year because I was actually home for it. Last year, since Easter was so late I ended up having to go to my friend's house in NH. I had a lot of fun last year but it wasn't the same because I wasn't with my family. So this year, even though I had to work on Easter sunday and the day before (I work in a bakery...it comes with the territory), Easter was traditional and really heartwarming. Being with my entire family just makes it feel even more like a holiday :)

Well that's all for now. I'm definitely going to enjoy my Spring Break at home. Hope all is well with everyone.
