This winter
break has been one for the books so far. It started out with a wonderful
weekend away in Lancaster with my boyfriend where I got engaged!!! Then, I was
able to celebrate the holidays & New Year with my family and friends
and had two whole weeks off of work & school (this was wonderful). In
addition, I successfully passed my first semester of graduate school and have
officially registered for my summer courses. It’s crazy to think that come the
end of this summer I will be almost half way done with my graduate program! Now
I get to finish out the rest of winter break working in graduate admissions,
relaxing, and spending time with my family and friends.
I strongly recommend if you can go
away even for a night, weekend, close, or far, whatever it may be to do so
during winter break. After my finals I was exhausted and stressed. Then instead
of stressing about my finals I was stressing about my grades lol. I needed
something to help me relax and just unwind after weeks of studying and
stressing. My fiancé and I decided to
make this our Christmas present to one another so we split the cost which made
our weekend getaway extremely affordable. (Helpful
Tip: go with a large group, family, friends, or a significant other because
it will be fun and help cut costs.) If you can’t go away then make sure to do
something for yourself whether that be get a manicure/pedicure, a massage, go
out for a night with friends, start working out again, find a new show to watch
on Netflix, or anything in general that will help you to relax, unwind, and
enjoy your free time while you have it.
I am really trying to relax,
organize things, energize myself, and get myself in the best possible position I
can to begin my second semester.
Remember Winter break is your month of brain, emotional, and physical
relaxation, be sure to enjoy it!
