Today may be the first day of spring, but it’s the last day
of our spring break. That means no more sleeping in and getting back to our
everyday school routine. Every year, the very first day we get back from break,
you can automatically tell who went somewhere and who didn’t. The biggest clue
is always how dark their skin is.

The
most common places to go throughout spring break is anywhere down south.
Florida and Mexico seem to be popular when it comes to traveling for a week. Usually
people like to get away from the cold Iowa weather and travel to some place
warm and get a nice tan. Any state that’s on the border of the ocean is basically
perfect for a vacation so they can hang out and chill at the beach. I know for
a fact that my best friend drives down to Florida at least twice a year to visit
her sister and her family. Whenever she comes back, I’m always jealous of how
tan she is.
Even
though there are so many more people who travel over break, there are that
handful of people, like me, who stayed back in Iowa and continues to be as
white as a sheet. Some spring breaks I’ll actually come back all tan, but not
this time. When I walk into school tomorrow, I’m going to be part of that
handful of students who didn’t go anywhere special, and be the same skin color
I was when I left for break.
