Spring Semester has arrived, and, with it, the stress of full months of classes. The spring semester stretches out before us, seemingly interminable. Particularly in this February haze, we’re faced with dark skies and cold weather. It may be a “spring” term, but it might/may take a while for spring to arrive.
That being said, there is always beauty in those moments of waiting for spring semester to arrive. Once the weather starts to warm, it’s like we’re all coming alive once more. Until those moments, though, here are some tips to try to make the most of the beauty of the winter portion of spring semester.
