What do I need to know when planning a weekend getaway with my college buddies?

1. Less is more. The stuff you’ll remember will be the dumb funny bullshit, not the scriptured activities

2. Always take into account the one with the lowest budget.

3. Where you are going and where you are sleeping. Who is paying for what. What the plan is(can be anything from lots of specific activities all to just hanging and drinking at a cabin). And make sure someone close who isn’t going knows where you’ll be in case of emergency.

   With that information you can decide what you need to bring, especially in terms of clothing, toiletries,and money. Don’t assume someone will provide for you in any way.

4. Where you’re going?

5. Make sure you all get your stories straight.

6. Halve the clothes and double the money!

7. Do not drive anywhere if there’s a possibility you’ll end up drinking. Uber/Lyft exist for a reason.

8. remember you’re not in college anymore. Nothing more regretful than trying to relive the past. Hangout, get to know each other again, reminisce and make new memories

   Have fun!

9. If carpooling long distance, get a cooler and load up with ice, water, fav drinks, snacks, and the makings for a “picnic” type lunch. Saves money having to avoid restaurants, and we found we saved time for more activities if we could just eat on the move.

10. *DO NOT* accidentally kill any hookers. Please, for the love of god!
