Weekend water-park fun! Find your own way to relieve pre-final stress!

Contributed by: Lynnea Kraft

Thanksgiving is a time for family, friends, food and fun. For Wilmington College students, however, Thanksgiving break has a slightly different meaning. The way the semesters are set up allows for Thanksgiving break to be right before finals. This break gives students a chance not only to air out their brains, but also to catch up on needed sleep and get some good nutrition before the final week of class and sleepless nights preparing to make or break the grade.

                Although I had to make a 4 hour journey to my hometown in northeast Ohio, the food and fun I had over break was definitely worth the trek. I caught up on sleep and home cooked meals. I also had the chance to burn off some “end-of-the-semester” stress at The Kalahari Resort – the nation’s largest indoor waterpark under one roof.   Hopefully this little recovery time will give me and other students the extra boost needed to finish the semester strong! Good luck to all!

                PS. STAY HEALTHY FOR FINALS! TRY TO GET REST, AVOID ALL NIGHTERS, AND EAT BREAKFAST!
