Spending Spring Break at Home

If you’re not headed out to have some fun in the sun, there’s still plenty to do in your hometown. I talked to a lot of girls who stayed home this year and they still had a great time. Here’s a few ideas girls shared for spring break.

• Get caught up on sleep. You could even pamper yourself by spritzing your sheets with a scented spray or listening to a relaxing CD to soothe you to sleep.
• Hang out with the friends you haven’t seen in awhile because you’ve been too busy with school.
• Have a major movie marathon, with food and decorations related to the theme of the movies.
• Enjoy the outdoors! Go for a walk, bike, or rollerblade.
• Be a tourist in your own town. Check out sites you don’t normally visit. If you live in St. Louis, for example, head to the City Museum, the Arch, or the Zoo.
• Grab dinner with a group of friends or throw a potluck party at one of your houses. Have everyone bring a beverage, appetizer, main course, side dish or desert.
• Pick up a few more shifts at work to save up for something special.
• Go bowling. Better yet, organize your own mini-tournament with your friends. The losing team buys pizza for the group afterwards.

What about you? If you stayed home this year, tell us what you did!
