I’ve been looking forward to Spring Break for a while. I love teaching but I also love not having a 5:00 AM alarm.
Some reasons I’ve been looking forward to Spring Break are:
- Spring Cleaning – Woohoo! [The woohoo is just for show, I’m crying inside.]
- Ramadan Prep – we’ll be fasting through April so I’m going to make sure we have all the necessary supplies on hand.
- Reading – I’m looking forward to finishing at least 02 whole books during this break, and hopefully one audiobook while I clean.
- Movies! – I’ve got a few movies I’ve kept on hold; Dune (yup, still haven’t watched that one), The Batman, and any horror movie I can find (recommendations welcome).
- No Alarm – I’ll finally be able to turn off my recurring 5:00 AM alarm. Woohoo! [This is a real woohoo.]
Most of all, though, I’m looking forward to refilling my ‘cup’ – my cup of energy, my cup of trust, my cup of self-efficacy, my cup of faith in myself. Because you can’t pour from an empty cup.
Wishing all my colleagues a fun yet restful Spring Break!

I hope you replenish your energy and have time for fun during your break. I like your analogy of an empty cup because like a car needs fuel so do we!

I love how the mood of this slice jumps quickly around with a sense of levity and light. I also love audiobooks while doing laundry or exercising and it’s the only way that I can get through all of the reading that I need to do. Good luck on your break and Ramadan Mubarak!

Audiobooks have become my favorite thing over the past two years.

Have a wonderful spring break. My goal is always to leave town during spring break, but reading and relaxing sound good, too, although being retired does give me a break from the early alarm. Movie recommendation, but not horror: “Belfast.”

I’m starting the Spring Break with a short road trip. 😁 But will be back home in a couple of days to get working on my to-do list.
Thank you for the recommendation. I’ll check it out. 🤩

I love your cup descriptions – they are awesome – and your list. I saw The Batman – very dark. You might like Death on the Nile. Incredible scenery, too. Sounds like your spring break will be busy and refreshing!
