For college students, summer break may offer a reprieve from long nights of writing papers and cramming for exams. It also might represent a chance to work and earn enough money to offset some of the costs of your education like tuition, rent, and food.
If you intend to spend your summer working, you might be thinking about trying to get a job at a coffee shop or restaurant. Of course, the ones you want to work at may not be hiring, and the ones that are hiring may have open positions because they are tough places to work. That’s just how it is, right?
Spring is almost in the air. Western North Carolina has had more than enough winter weather and frigid temperatures this year to satisfy even the most ardent snow lovers.
While winter may not be ready to relinquish its grip just yet, the days are getting longer, and our area will be coming alive with an array of vibrant colors as flowers and trees bloom.
Families in Charlotte, Raleigh, Greenville, and Atlanta will experience the change before we will, here in the mountains. For parents, the spring weather provides the perfect opportunity to get their kids out of the house. However, as school work piles up and schedules fill with extracurricular activities, you may not feel like you are getting the most out of the season. Before you know it, summer will be here, and it seems like your kids have barely been outside.
