Optimize Your Spring Break

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Cal Lutheran chapter.

Spring break is here. Instead of fully taking a break from college, maybe plan out your summer a bit and THEN let your mind flow free! To help you better balance your priorities over spring break, take a look at this guide to keep you healthy, organized, and ready to tackle the end of spring semester!For when you’re feeling unmotivated to apply to those summer internships: Pick up a copy of an #ActuallySheCan Success Issue. The ActuallySheCan campaign works to ignite important dialogue regarding female empowerment, encouraging ambition in young women.

For that moment you realize your campsite has no shower: Stash some Psssst! Dry Shampoo Travel Size in your backpack to help you feel at least a bit refreshed in the morning. 

For the moment your family back home missed you so much that they all want pictures with you before you come back to school: Keep a tube of Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips Lipstick ready to go in your car or purse! You know your mom will want to document your homecoming with a few pictures, especially if you go to school far away from home. For when you get a little uncomfortable: Invest in a pack of Cystex tablets! These are used to manage the pain and discomfort associated with UTI’s and will get you healthy and pain-free super quick!

For those “I feel like organizing my life” moments: Go out and pick up an Erin Condren Planner! These planners are already so beautiful, but if you want more to add to them, get yourself an In Bloom Sticker Sheet and write out your schedule with Colorful Dual-Tip Markers! This combination makes you bound for success and ready to takle the end of spring semester!

For a quick skin-cancer-free tan: Use L-Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Towelettes and Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Lotion to appear as though you just got out of the Bahamas!  For when you want to splurge on a new bag: Get yourself a Juicy Couture key chain to add some excitement to your current bag, backpack, or even your lanyard! It’ll make you a little happier to see some shine by your keys.

Good luck on optimizing your spring break! Stay safe, healthy, and motivated!
