It's your senior year of college, and let's be honest-- you've probably already partied in all the "cool" places for your past three spring breaks. Mexico, Florida, even the Bahamas; you've been there, done that. Well, fear not, party animal! What follows is a list of four exceptional spots to spend your last spring break as a college undergraduate. I can pretty much guarantee you'll have the time of your life.

First off is a destination that will cost you absolutely no money: your parent's basement. Want to see what life would be like had you dropped out of DeVry's refrigerator maintenance program? Interested in the burn out lifestyle? Well, look no further than this charming, often missed spring break hot spot. You'll have the time of your life watching reruns of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and eating cookie dough all day long, while your friends are bored out of their minds at some secluded tropical paradise. Because your parent's basement has something no resort or party town has, and something that will make any spring break memorable: your parents. Who needs friends when you can spend all break hearing your mother talk about what a huge disappointment you turned out to be?

For the more adventurous party animal, Flat, Alaska offers the perfect setting to unleash your inner reveler! This picturesque town, located in the heart of Northern Alaska, boasts several things Mexico can only dream of: permafrost, sub-zero temperatures, and a population consisting of only four people. You'll be the most important visitor to this incredible party zone since the census taker came by in 2000!

If the cold isn't something you can handle, however, you might want to consider a trip to Death Valley. Don't stay at any of the local towns, however. Simply have a friend blindfold you and drop you off in the middle of the dunes! Think of all the money you'll save without having to worry about lodging. Or food, for that matter. I'm almost certain some of the shrubs you'll encounter are edible. If not, then lizards are a delicious and nutritious treat. After a week of nonstop partying and drinking excessive amounts of cactus juice, you'll never want to go home!

Finally, we come to the ultimate spring break destination. This is the site of legends, people. When others ask you how your spring break was, there's really only one destination that will instill horrible feelings of jealousy in everyone around you. That's right folks. Amish country. No drinking. No electricity. No modern appliances of any kind. Just good ol' fashioned butter churning; and plenty of it. Spend a day learning how to till a field. Spend the afternoon learning how candles are made. And, best of all, be in bed promptly by eight P.M, so you can do it all over again the next day!

There you have it. Four places that will make your spring break the envy of all your friends. Just remember to take lots of pictures to show everyone back home. Unless you're in Amish country. They don't look too kindly on the Devil's appliances.
