and that is all I have to say about that
You know those Spring Breaks you see in the movies?
The ones where college students go on a tropical vacation that had to have costed a small fortune, to a place where the sun seems to never leave its highest point in the sky.
Where you can expect 90 degree weather every day that takes several bottles of sunscreen to keep from burning your ghostly white skin that has been hibernating during the gloomy winter days.
Where you don't have a care in the world except that novel you can't put down, the one that makes you wonder how Katniss and Peeta are ever going to make it out alive together so they can fall in love. (just had to throw that one in there)
The salty smell drifting in the breeze from the ocean and a waiter bringing you an endless supply of virgin strawberry dakaris that are the perfect combination between bitter and sweet.
Now that sounds like one heck of a Spring Break to me and I'm here to tell ya, that wasn't quite how my Spring Break went.
I mean if you consider not a care in the world lasting maybe an hour a day, the glorious sun that decided to show itself the last day of the break, and the 90 degree heat coming from a laptop that has been permanently perched on my lap, then yes, I most definitely had a typical college kid's Spring Break.
All joking aside, it truly was bittersweet.
It gave me the time I desperately needed to complete 24 800-word essays and a lesson plan and for that, kisses to you Spring Break.
and you better believe we saw The Hunger Games. (which perfectly conveyed the book in movie form I might add) We tried out a new place called Pizza Pie Cafe where you can choose from a salad bar, pastas, 10 different kinds of pizzas (one with potatoes on it of course, after all it is Idaho), and dessert pizza, OR you can just try it all. We also went to ISU's Spring Fair where we saw more motor homes and hot tubs than anything else!
Nic took off Friday so it was a three day weekend for both of us which is rare around here.
It was a well spent 7 days, and that is all I have to say about that.
