Break Recap

The bulk of my spring break has come to an end. There are still a few days left, and the dorms aren't open yet, so there are still some adventures to be had, but they will stay mainly around the OC area. Since some of you may be curious (and even if you're not), I'll give you a quick run down of what my break consisted of. Details, if worth mentioning, will come later.
