Blog Entry V – Topic of Your Choice

Spring break has been on my mind since Winter Break. For the past three years of college I have been going on break with my mom and stepdad. And although it’s always fun, it’s just not the same as going on a trip with your friends. Since this is our senior year at Michigan and our final spring break as undergraduates, we started talking about making plans and doing a group trip together. The consensus that we reached was that we wanted to stay in the U.S., but it needed to be warm, fun and a trip we’ll never forget. Enter: Miami.

Puerto Rico 2012

I’ve been to Florida plenty of times but never to Miami. And considering I’m the most organized and the chosen “mom” of the group, I did all the research and the planning for all of us. Instead of staying in a hotel, we’ll be staying in a house. We’re saving a ton of money this way and it’ll just be nice to have that much more space since we’ll be there for a week. (I found the house through a vacation home rental site that you can find here. I highly recommend everyone at least consider renting a home instead of getting a hotel when planning a vacation. So many options!)

We haven’t really decided what exactly we want to do when we get there, but considering we have a great time sitting around and doing nothing, I’m not worried about that at all. I know we are going to have the time of our lives. I plan on spending most of my time tanning during the day because I’m tired of being pale.

I have a lot of work to get done before we leave (in 11 days!) but as soon as I get to Miami I will be able to completely relax and have a great time. I could not be more excited!
