Exam season is coming to a close and we all know what that means, don’t we? Firstly, it’s almost time to start studying for the repeats.
Secondly, it’s time to pack the trunks, the contraceptives and a few false expectations for your big trip to sunnier shores.
Here’s what you can ACTUALLY expect, lads.
Expectation: A few quiet drinks at the airport and on the plane is a great way to start any holiday.
Reality: You’re the only one dancing in the middle of the airport departure lounge.
Expectation: When you get there the apartment will be perfect. It will have everything you need and enough room for you and all your mates.
Reality: Are bunk-beds still a thing?
Expectation: The room next to you will be filled to the rim with beautiful women
Reality: Not quite…
Expectation: The night spots are absolutely wonderful. It’s party paradise.
Reality: No, that one’s actually fairly accurate.
Expectation: There’ll be loads of sexy-sexy time.
Reality: *Sobs uncontrollably*
Expectation: You’ll recuperate each day by sitting out in the sun and totally embracing the heat.
Reality: You’ll get burnt on the first day and have to spend each sun-lit hour in the shade.
Expectation/Reality: It will be the time of your life and you’ll never forget it.
So there you have it guys, what you can expect on a lads’ holiday. Remember to enjoy yourself, wear sunscreen and stay safe.
Sprite, the truth is refreshing.
