Winter Break (Vacation, Missing Friends, and Recharging) – Chloe

03/09/2020 1:12 AM

While I am home for break I am taking a cruise to the Bahamas, so if anyone has recommendations on what to do let me know! I am also potentially going to Canada and getting all of my family time in. I am so excited for the time to relax and not have to study.

Winter break is in full swing and I am loving the much-needed break. I love how long our break is it really allows us to do everything we want from traveling to sleeping and everything in between. Finals week is crazy busy and once that is all over it really starts to feel the holidays. I love being home but it is weird not to see my Bradley family all the time anymore. I just got off the phone with one of my friends and said “alright see you tomorrow” without realizing the fact that I wouldn’t be seeing my Bradley friends again for a month. I haven’t been gone more than a short time and I already have facetimed my friends countless times.

I love the way that Bradley has set up the calendar, it makes a really good schedule for enhancing learning. We have such a long winter break there are so many things you can do with it. Over the last few winter breaks I have been able to work when some of my other friends haven’t been able to find jobs since they have such short winter breaks. Winter break also allows for traveling the world and anything else you may want to do. With this setup, by the time we get back on campus everyone is well-rested and ready to take on the challenge of a new semester and new set of classes.
