March is the time of the school year a lot of students are
looking forward to because of one thing: Spring Break. While some go home
to catch up on sleep and spend time with their families others sign up to go to
incredible vacation spots to have the time of their lives. Whether its
clubbing in Panama City or going to a concert on the beach in the Bahamas, many
college students are drawn in by these amazing opportunities to "live it
up" with their friends on spring break. There are multiple groups that organize events like this,
such as Electric Island in the picture above. They use things they know will attract people ages 18 to around
24: perfect weather, bathing suits, young people all the same age. Who wouldn’t look at images of hundreds
of bikini clad girls rocking out to music on the beach and not want to go? They make everything look like people
are having the time of their lives in the ideal setting. Most times even the price is doable if
people plan early enough. The
people who organize it create simple packages that include hotel rooms, clubs,
concerts, and drinks. All the
student has to do is click the button and hand over the cash.
It’s seems surreal, something that only happens in movies, but these
groups have made it real and possible for younger people to attend and have an
amazing experience somewhere warm instead of staying up north! I know I myself
have considered saving up for this type of trip and many of my friends have
gone. Although tiring by the end
of it, and probably hard to get back to reality afterwards, I can’t deny that
it looks like an amazing experience you can only do when you’re young!
A lot of my friends have gone to Panama City for spring break, and they all told me it was horrible. I had thought about going, but I would much rather catch up on some needed sleep. Maybe some day I'll go, but for now I'll just enjoy the time to see my friends and family back home.
