As Spring Break draws tantalizingly close, I find myself eager to escape dorm life and get out into that Spring weather that should be here anytime now. Dorm life definitely has it's positives, but being shut indoors during long winter weeks is not one of them. In order to combat the sweeping epidemic known to some as "cabin fever" I have prescribed several remedies for myself. *Note: These remedies only treat the symptoms of cabin fever, not the disease itself. Cabin fever can only truly be cured by copious amounts of sunshine and 50 plus degree weather.* My remedies are as follows: Running, leisurely reading, Flight of the Conchords, working out, doodling in my assignment notebook, playing basketball when possible, and taking naps. The most successful of these prescriptions has been Flight of the Conchords (season's one and two) which successfully alleviates stress within five minutes of inserting the dvd into my laptop. These two clever men from New Zealand put my disease into remission for sometimes up to three hours, depending on when the next class is.
