Dear Susie,
Spring break is coming up and I have NOTHING to do! All my friends are going on these fun trips while I’m stuck at home being bored. What do I do with no friends around and no fun trips? I don’t want to sit on my couch the whole break! What should I do?
Sincerely,
Spring Break-itis
Dear Spring Break-itis,
No friends and no trips? That’s no problem. There are plenty of activities to do that can be enticing. Some may not be your first choice of activities, but it doesn’t mean you can’t have fun doing them. You could do some cool crafts you’ve seen, bake or cook, make some money, workout, hangout with friends (you’re not the only one not going on a vacation), and more. Sometimes it is good to just take a chill day to catch up. Your break doesn’t have to be jammed packed with stuff to do. What I think would be good is to set a goal for each day to do one thing that is fun or something you want to do. It could be from a small thing like going out to eat or to a bigger thing like having a sleepover. Worst case is that the break is only a week, so you’ll be back in school by no time!
Sincerely,
Susie
