SPRING BREAK FEVER!!!
I am ready for spring break. I am taking 18 units this semester which has turned out to be quite a bit of work. It has been my observation that teachers seem to really pile on the work just before a break. I have never understood why this occurs because the last thing anyone wants to do is spend their break doing school work. Maybe it is because the teachers really do not get a break? I don’t think people really study over spring break anyways. Being completely honest I have a very hard time studying on the weekends let alone over a vacation. I do not have any big and exciting plans to travel for the break. I plan to relax and spend time with my family. One thing that I am grateful for this semester is that the majority of my classes have chosen to have exams just before the break instead of after. That means that this coming week is going to be exhausting but manageable. That means I don’t have to worry about studying as much. Good luck next week to those of you who have multiple exams and enjoy your break.

Actually, I think you hit it right on the mark... most teachers do not get to take a break, and many of us are old-school and 'remember the day' when spring break was not a chance to fly off to some tropical location but a chance to catch up on work. The culture of college has changed a lot for many instructors at the college level. But I am glad that you get to have some work/life balance with weekends and breaks. Hopefully the work for this course did not keep you from some quality time with the family.
