The Facebook 
status updates are overwhelming me: "So-and-so has two more weeks until spring break," "So-and-so is dreaming of spring break," "So-and-so can't wait to spend spring break on the beach."
Sigh. I wish I had a spring break. But since I don't, let's talk about your spring break. Ah yes, the yearly tradition where many college students head to more fabulous locations to escape from their college obligations, if only for one week.
Are you taking a big spring break trip? My guess is that in the current economy (groan, I hate talking about it) some of you may be scaling back your spring break plans.
Perhaps you are thinking about some less expensive alternatives? If so, you may have considered:
- Staying local and exploring what your city has to offer
- Driving instead of flying
- Packing your own food in a cooler rather than buying it along the way (remember snacks , too)
- Finding a campground or staying with friends/family to save on lodging
- Going on a service trip instead
Choosing a less expensive alternative can still be just the getaway you need to come back to school refreshed and ready to finish out the year strong. Plus, a lot of times, it's more about the trip with good friends than the actual destination.
You tell me: Is a big spring break trip still the plan for you? And if you are planning an inexpensive alternative, share your plans.
