Spring (Break) Is In The Air

Notice- Experienced Student Tip Enclosed

Where will you go?

Whether you go back to your hometown, stay at home (with home meaning 2nd Fitten), or go somewhere special, there are many things you can do.

If you don’t already have plans for spring break, here are some ideas:

• Do nothing.
  • You probably need the rest after this hectic second semester.
• Go to GT Beesball games
  • Tech plays Boston College (Friday, Saturday, & Sunday) & Kennesaw State (Both away & home; Tuesday and Wednesday respectively)

• Play Tourist.
  • Atlanta is an awesome town and unless you're from here, chances are you haven’t seen all that ATL has to offer.
• Hit the museums
  • Atlanta has TONS of museums, probably more than any city in the south.
• Go on a road trip with your friends
  • Just pick any place, any distance, as long as you can afford the gas and the hotels. It’ll be a trip to remember
• Go on a road trip with your family.
  • If you do it this way, it’ll be cheaper! And besides, they probably miss you and love you a bunch.
• Look for local volunteering opportunities
  • The metro area has millions of people, and many of them are looking for some extra hands. Maybe you can help.
• Check out some of the awesome events occurring in Atlanta during the break.
• Enjoy the “Great Outdoors”.
  • There are plenty of parks around Atlanta to go camping/hiking at:
    • Kennesaw Mountain
    • Stone Mountain
    • Helen, Georgia and the rest of North Georgia

Experienced Student Tip

IMPORTANT- You probably have no idea just how much crap you’ve accumulated so far living on campus. It would behoove you to begin taking as much as possible of your stuff back home starting next week (spring break).

One Question

Is ANYONE planning on staying here? I know that I’ll (Hector) be staying here for the break. Mostly relaxing, but I’ll be doing some of the things on the list such as volunteering and going to the Beesball games. If you are staying, let me know.

What are YOU doing for Spring Break? Are you staying here? Going somewhere? Did the student tip come in handy? Comment!

Just a few reminders

Congratulations to New RAs

At least two of our very own residents, Malik & Fabrizio, have received a job offer to be an RA next year on East Campus (North Avenue). When you see them around, don’t forget to give them a big high five!

Friday Night Hangout

• Like previously mentioned, we’re going to the Georgia Tech Baseball season opener which begins at 4:00 PM.
• We’ll be leaving here at 3:35 PM. All you need to get in is your Buzz Card.
• After the game, if you guys want to go somewhere to eat after the game, we’ll decide then.
• Don’t forget to vote on the poll for next week’s FNHO on the sidebar on the right side of the blog.

Think Big @ Tech

We’ve got a lot of new housing options that we want everyone to know about. In the coming days I’ll be writing review on each of the options in a multi-day series called “How Do You Think Big @ Tech?”

One Last Thing

We would like to receive more comments on the posts to hear what you’re thinking on a variety of subjects. Stay tuned for a “comments competition” that will involve some prizes for you guys.

63 Days left until the last day of class.
