Two students share their plans for spring break

Spring break is just around the corner and it is time to party hard whether at home or in a hotel in Vegas.

Not all students have the luxury, as some are obligated to stay home and continue their rigorous work schedules and daily lives. Student Laci Hubbard will be sitting at home while other lucky students will be living it up.

“My plans for spring break include doing everything I normally do in a week, minus school,” said Hubbard. “I will be working the same days and will go to trivia at Eagle’s [Pub] like I do with my friends every Tuesday. Additionally, I will be making an exodus to the Laundromat to rid myself of a massive pile of dirty laundry.”

Although some may view Hubbard’s vacation to be a bit underwhelming, she believes it is exactly what she needs at this time. She is not only facing the pressure of finals, but is also in the process of applying to law school. She could also use the money from working at the local Dominos and would like to spend time with her cat, Church.

“I want to do what I am planning because not having to stress out about travel or anything else seems like an excellent idea,” said Hubbard. “I do, however, hope to catch up on my pleasure reading since I won’t have to worry about reading my textbooks.”

Other students, however, will get the opportunity to live it up on the Vegas Strip. Chris Newberry will be heading to Las Vegas for four days as soon as he finishes his last final.

“[While I’m] down in Vegas, I might check out the Bodies exhibit, where they have different parts and nerves and muscles of the body on display; ride some rides; catch some sun by the pool; go to some clubs,” he said.

Even with two completely different plans for their time off, Hubbard and Newberry will have a fantastic break from all the studying done this past quarter.

“[Break will help] celebrating this dreadful winter quarter. It was a rough one, and it’s finally winding down,” Newberry said.

“I’m looking forward to be able to clean my apartment and having clean clothes,” Hubbard said.
