As Spring Break gets closer and closer, it gets harder and harder to focus on anything else. Especially when we’ve got a killer spring break guide being updated all the time. So why even try to talk about anything else anymore?
Join us tonight at 9 PM for a huge Spring Break tweet chat where we’ll cover everything you need and want to know about the best week of the year. From finding last-minute deals to packing the right outfits to getting the most out of a spring break at home, we’ll be going through it all.
STA Travel is so excited to talk Spring Break that they’re offering a$100 STA VOUCHER to a randomly chosen chat participant AND they’re sending a Spring Break expert our way to offer tips, tricks, and advice. Just ask @STAtravel any questions you have and their travel experts are sure to give you the right answer.
But STA Travel isn’t the only college spring break expert chiming in. We’ll be joined by our friends at College Thrive, College Cures, College Fashion, and tons of other college students who have been there, done that.
Follow us @collegecandy and use the hashtag #springbreak to join in on the fun. We’ll be throwing out questions starting at 9 PM so if you have anything you want answered, put it in the comments.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times – while the holidays are upon us, so is the end of the semester. And this week was a mixed bag of excitement (shopping!) and dread (studying!) for the season.
On the upside, there are definitely several things to look forward to, like our NCAA National Football Championship airline ticket giveaway, and a couple more items on the to-do list before the ball drops on 2009. Of course, if you’re looking for that perfect gift, perhaps a personal DIY project will do just the trick. Getting dolled up a la Twilight stars and pole-dancing for fitness are two of our new fave ways to look hot.
And when it comes to staying warm this season, there’s nothing like a little personal company. Whether you did the dirty with your first serious significant other or it led to a walk of shame, we’re all looking for some body heat to get us through the winter. We discussed the benefits of getting down with the game playa or the honest boy, and the scandalous new phenomenon of “sexting.” Regardless of who, when, or how often you’re hooking up, one thing is for certain: ladies are definitely getting some for themselves these days.
If all of that doesn’t help you through the end of finals, at least take these tips for saving your grades and stick around next week for more CollegeCandy fun!
