My Spring Break this year was a bit unconventional. Due to my\u00a0responsibilities as\u00a0a Resident Assistant in a break duty hall, instead of going away on a “senior trip” like so many seniors\u00a0do, I was trapped within my residence hall for seven days in a row. Seven days of never seeing the light of day. Oh man, I started getting really antsy towards the end of it. I shouldn’t\u00a0complain though since this was the price to pay for going away to Spain<\/a> during Winter Break which was an experience I wouldn’t trade for a thing.<\/p>\n Spring Break wasn’t really much of a “spring” break to begin with. Most of the days looked like this. Snowy, cold, and a wintery mess. I\u00a0didn’t want to step outside anyway.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When I finally did leave, my car was buried under so much snow I had to try to find a way to uncover it. I foolishly didn’t\u00a0have a snow brush or ice scraper in my car (never making that mistake again) so I had to resort to physically punching the snow off. Yes, I stood in the parking lot and punched the snow off my car one punch at a time.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you’re wondering why I had a\u00a0boxing glove in my car, that is\u00a0an excellent question. An excellent question\u00a0I wish I had the answer to.<\/p>\n From there, I drove home to begin my journey to Las Vegas! I was attending\u00a0a weekend seminar in Nevada hosted by my mentor along with\u00a0a number of other professional hypnotists. Some of the attendees\u00a0were returners from the same program I went to in Orlando, Florida back in August of last year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n During my flight, I purchased\u00a0airline food for the first time in my life. I don’t know why I found this\u00a0particularly exciting since it probably shouldn’t have been but I think it was just one of those things I’ve always wanted to do\u00a0but never did. This time I was starving and desperate so I paid the overpriced fee for a small\u00a0“Tapas” box for a little taste of\u00a0Spain. Though it didn’t come close to the real thing, it was nice to eat again.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
