Gumby Gossip: How do you handle burnout with a late spring break?
March 28, 2023
The middle of the semester is always a difficult time for students. Stress levels are high and the amount of work midterms bring can be intense and overwhelming. Most universities have spring break in the middle of the semester, around week 8, which usually falls at the beginning or middle of March, while Cal Lutheranโs spring break is after week 11 in April.
Everyone handles burnout differently. For some, this means taking small study breaks, practicing self-care, spending time with friends or going on a walk. Students were asked the Gumby Gossip question of the week: How do you handle burnout with a late spring break?
โIโm handling my burnout by going to Starbucks and just kind of relaxing, not going to work as much, unfortunately, but Iโm doing things that keep me calm like making bracelets and hanging out with my friends, FaceTiming my mom, just things that keep me calm, I guess,โ sophomore Dakota Barker said.
