Spring Break
Top 10 Beach Essentials Countdown
Issue date: 4/30/09
Whether you're hitting the beautiful white sands of the Caribbean this summer or visiting Charles Village's own "beach" at MSE circle, don't leave your beach house or dorm building without these essentials.
10. Sunglasses
Look cool and protect your eyes from the sun's glare. They're especially great if you've sipped a few too many pina coladas the night before.
9. Sunscreen
Skin cancer and premature aging aren't worth the extra tan (or burn!) Don't slack off when it comes to applying sunscreen.
8. An IPod
Or, if you want to go old school, carry a boombox.
7. Watermelon
A traditional beach food you can only get in the summer. Seed-spitting cometitions are also in order if you indulge in this fabulous fruit.
6. Flip flops
Sand in your sneakers is never fun. Neither are sock tans.
5. A Frisbee
Stretch your legs after months cramped in D level. Playing Ultimate frisbee is definitely the way to go!
4. Stylish hat
... bordering on comical. Straw hats are classic and bathing caps are practical, but you could totally rock the pirate hat look.
3. Trashy magazine
Forget the heavy text books. Summer vacation is all about mindless yet entertaining magazines.
2. Friends
Can't live with 'em, can't mooch free hotdogs without 'em.
1. Swimsuit
Don't forget it at home. Neither your friends nor the fish will appreciate it.
