No, not to haul out the X-mas tree or carve some pumpkins, but to bring out the ol' bathing suit and prepare for a week of fun in the sun known as Spring Break! We're at the point in the semester where EVERYONE is ready for a break from classes, so come Friday at 3pm, a little taste of freedom will be more than welcome. Now, while everyone is talking about how they are going to California, Florida, or Cancun, I talk about how I'm spending my week....
HERE. That's right, my Spring Break will be spent on campus, and most of that at work in Pruis Hall. The Heartland Regional Student Conference, a conference where students showcase their fine arts skills (music, acting, puppeteering, etc) and do a little worshippng in between, is using Pruis as their headquarters all week, so I figured since I'd be around town, why not pick up a lot of hours at work, right? Right. So why all my friends are oot 'n aboot in the sun and having a blast, I'll be locked in this cold, dreary building, making money. Don't I always just make the best choices!
While this may sound awful, believe it or not, this is how I spent my Spring Break last year as well. Now, before you think, "This kid is crazy! Use your Spring Break to get AWAY from Muncie," know that my first two Spring Breaks at BSU were spent in Cleveland with the Ball State Basketball teams and the Pep Band. We usually have at least one team make it to the MAC tournament, and where the team goes, the Pep Band goes as well. So see? I have been away during some Spring Breaks; next time I need to focus on doing something NOT school related...
