Winter Break Plans?

[Lindsay Beckwith 2B]

Hi all,

In all the chaos and stress of studying for finals, I figured I would make a post for people to discuss their winter break plans. What are you all most excited for after finals? Any fun travel plans? If you're staying in LA for break, how do you plan to spend the month off?

I am most excited to go home and see my family and go skiing!

[Caroline 2A]

Hi!

I am staying here in LA but all of my family is flying up to visit. I am most excited for bread-making, a long time family tradition.

I'm planning to go back home and hang with my friends and family for the two weeks that we have :,( then cry because we only get two weeks.

[Sara Dolmo 2J]

For winter break, I will be home with family! My brother is coming into town from North Carolina after a long time of not seeing him because he joined the marines. Im so excited to hang out with him and other family members!

Hi!

Staying in LA, probably going to be working a lot! Spending as much time with family and friends while they're in town as i can :)

Hoping for COVID numbers to be down as much as possible so everyone can stay safe, remember that if it's been 6 months since your last dose of the COVID vaccine (if Pfizer or Moderna, if J&J if it's been 2 months since!) you are eligible to get your booster!

[Ameerah Hameed 3B]

Heyyy!!

For this upcoming break I am going back home to in the Bay Area to spend time with family and just relax. Also, during the second half of break I am going to Ghana for my auntie's wedding and to see the rest of my family that I have not seen in years :)

[Emily Wu 2G]

I get to finally go back to Seattle which is where I'm from. Me and my dad will them take a trip down to Florida to soak up more sunshine and experience Christmas and new years there!

I am most excited to be back at home and getting rid of jet lag before having to fly back to LA again, watching Christmas movies, drinking hot chocolate, and spending time with family and friends. I also love the mall around Christmastime!

Hi!
I am sooo excited to see my high school friends who went out of state for college. I am really hoping to ski and bake a lot over the break too.

[505771920]

I will hopefully be skiing lots and enjoying the snow before I come back to the 80 degrees

[505771920]

That sounded like complaining I mean I love 80 degrees but I especially love getting all four seasons:)

[Parinita Jithendra 2A]

I hope to go on a small trip with my family as well as just catching up with them. My friends and I were also thinking of driving to Tahoe for a fun little getaway.

[Jada Dawson]

Hi,
I'm looking forward to spending time with family during the holidays! I've been really wanting to go snowboarding so I'm either gonna do that here or in Colorado. OOO also I bought multiple concert tickets during a manic episode so I'm excited for that in December !

[Grant_2A]

Hey guys,

I am looking forward to just hanging out at home and especially seeing my dog!

[Holly Do 2J]

Hiiii!
I am excited to be home for a significant amount of time (3.5 weeks) and give my dog all the attention she misses.

[Alyssa H]

Hey! I'm from WA and have honestly never been so excited to see some rain. I don't have many plans for break yet, but I'm really looking forward to spending time with my dogs again, seeing my sister and my friends at home, and eating some home-cooked meals-- definitely missed those. I'm also so excited to have almost a month off from school (!!!)

[eve444]

Hii!

This break I'm honestly just planning to recharge for the next quarter lol. I might hang out with some friends from my hometown, so that's exciting as well. But for the most part: rest, rest, and some more rest.

[Madeline_Miller]

Hey! For break, I'm mostly staying on campus and working. But, luckily, I get to go home from December 22-25! So I'm really excited to see my family!
