Back to Reality..

ULABA

April 02, 2025

I have some beef with the upperclassmen. Why did no-one warn my sweet, naive freshman self about the post spring-break depression??? It hit me like a TRUCK and I’m currently emotionally and physically concussed. (hey marg😏 )

One day you’re sipping on spicy margaritas while baking in UV-11 glory ☀️ (or in my case, snowy slopes, broken bones, and chocolate-related crimes), and the next day? You are thrown into the cruel embrace of Bobst’s 6th floor.

However, not all is lost pookies..💝 There are some GREAT things to look forward to: 1. Winter is almost over, 2. umm…let me think… yea no, I got nothing sorry.. We might actually be doomed.

So , moral of the story: let’s all pretend to be okay, smile through the academic pain, and manifest serotonin via delusion 🫶✨ Fake it till you make it babies. We got this...hopefully 😌

questions about this picture are kindly declined..😅

I’ve already heard some of your wild spring break tales, but I want more. Spill the tea. Overshare. Traumatize me. (I shall feel better about mine). 😭 👀🫶
