How to Break Winter Vacation Boredom?

         What do you do on your winter break? Especially if most of your friends have jobs, babysit, doing homework, or just always busy. This first week I have been home and I am slowly starting to lose my mind while my friends are finishing up school. Needless to say being the first one back to my hometown is a blessing and a curse.
          There are somethings I have decided this break I am going to try and work on, instead of sitting in front of a television or computer screen every free moment I have from being free from work or not being with friends. There are so many things that you could do to benefit yourself, and even others!
  1.  Organize! Clean through everything you own. Get rid or donate the things that you don't want. You can even make a little cash if you go to stores like Plato's Closet.
  2. Read a good book. There are so many books, journeys, and adventures out there that can absorb you into their world. You can fall head over heals in love with a story within a book. 
  3. Hangout with family. I know whenever I get a chance I spend time with my Nana. She is an amazing, strong, and patient woman who I can't get enough time to spend with her. I want to learn everything about her before I lose the chance to. Who knows, you may even have found a best friend like I did. 
  4. Prepare. ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE GRADUATING! Start job hunting, start looking for potential. Find out where you may be in a years time. Without the research or time to do the research will you really know? I know this break I am taking the time to fill out teaching applications.
  5. Workout! Who needs New Years to start the "healthy living" spree? Start today and work on your fitness and being a better you. If you don't know how to use the weights or you always wanted to lift ask someone for help. What is the worst they are going to say? No? That is nothing to be afraid of.
Work hard this break, to benefit yourself. It is ok to be a little selfish every now and then. Just make sure you aren't sitting behind your computer 24/7 or a television. Get out there and do.

XOXO
