I spend a lot of time on the Ram Van. Whether coming from my internship, classes, or a night on the town, my rides on the Ram Van offer plenty of time to reflect upon what the hell just happened in Manhattan. Some of these stories, you just have to read to believe...

Spring Break Do's and Don't's

Sorry this is late. I was on Spring Break and I recently turned 21 and that's all the excuse I need for the tardiness of this post. Forgive me.



Anyway, as you know, March is prime Spring Break season for colleges across the country so I figured I could offer some advice to those students who have yet to begin their break, or for those of us who are already planning next year's extravaganza. All of the following bits of advice come from personal experiences.

DO - go to the bars and talk in an Australian accent. People will flock to you and buy you drinks because apparently, being an Australian automatically makes you the coolest person in the building.

DON"T - go around talking in an Australian accent and run into two guys who are actually from Australia, because then they start asking what neighborhood you're from and where you went to high school. And you have no clue what to say because you actually grew up in Texas and now you're that guy who just lied to the entire bar.

DO - play sand volleyball on the beach for three hours

DON'T - be the whitest person ever and forget to wear sunscreen while you're playing sand volleyball on the beach for three hours...

DO - celebrate your 21st birthday at a fancy restaurant

DON"T - forget your ID and celebrate your 21st at a fancy restaurant with a nice tall glass of ice water.

DO - go crazy and have a blast.

DON'T - take it for granted. If you're lucky enough to spend time on the beach or even just a nice week at home, you're luckier than most. Don't forget to say thanks and make memories that will always warm you, especially when you fly back to NYC and it snows on St. Patrick's Day. #buzzkill
