Spring Forward? No, Spring Break!!



Test, after test, after test. That is what this past week had in store for me. Of course all of the major exams in each of my classes fall on the exact same week, but that's how it usually works out. Thankfully all my hard work is about to be worth it because Spring Break 2011 is here!! ...At least it will be once five o'clock hits.

Everyone from out of town colleges comes home for the break, but since there is absolutely nothing to do in Midland, naturally everyone is going out of town. Since I live, work, and go to school here, I am no exception. Vacation hot spots like Ruidoso, Dallas, South Padre Island, and San Antonio call to all the breaking college students and their families. My calling, however, has been from Austin, good ole capital of Texas.

The timing couldn't be more perfect because during the time off from school and work, a music and film festival will be going on in downtown Austin called South by Southwest, SXSW. Having heard of it before, but not really knowing what it was, I was a little reluctant to accept my invite. But the more I did my research, the more I wondered why I never took the time to go before! Free concerts, films, and lots of interaction with the vendors sounds like an awesomely fun time. Food, friends, music, and movies, what is better than that?? Excitement set in as soon as all the plans were finalized, and I definitely cannot wait to take off to the big ATX for the festival. We won't set out until Thursday though, and it feels like the suspense will kill me. Luckily we spring forward an hour on Sunday, making me that much closer to my much needed Spring Break 2011 trip!!
