I must be honest; I am so freakin’ excited to be leaving CU. I have a love/hate relationship with this place—I love it because it’s my home, but I’m so bored. I’ll miss the fun I could have had if I stayed here for spring break; we usually enjoy going to campus bars when it’s so slow, with no lines to wait in and from time to time I’ll run into someone I haven’t seen since high school. But I won’t miss it too much because as I’m looking at the dreary, bleak picture outside my window of bare maple trees drooping underneath a gray sky, I’m thinking about palm trees, lying on the beach sipping on some fruity concoction when I arrive in Miami.

For those of you staying in CU, go have fun on campus. It’s kind of eerie to be on the deserted grounds of spring break, but you may find it freeing to have the bar entirely to you and your friends. For you other “townies,” it may be a great chance to catch up with old friends you haven’t seen since your high school graduation.
