What are you doing for break?
Posted Monday, March 24, 2008 by Mark Krupinski

It is the last week of the semester, and I do not have any plans for fun…Wow! Normally around this time I am packing my bags to take a little trip. It is nice to have a two week break every eleven weeks. However this break I am broke and staying home. Being that I live in Florida it makes for an easy little get away area. All the beaches are within driving distance and there are a few hot spots in Miami and the keys. Oh well maybe next break things will look better.

So I ask myself…what I am going to do during my break. I will probably use this time to visit with my friends since I do not see too much of them during school. It really becomes hard to hang with friends because it always seems like they want to hang when I have a big assignment due and don’t have the time. Therefore, I am always putting them off, but they understand. I hope!

I also just moved into my place back in January and I still have a few loose ends to tidy up. You know, you un-pack enough just to make it comfortable for living, but there are still a few boxes tucked away in the corner. Well that is me and I have not had the time to finish. I also still have a few little decorating things I would like to do here and there.

No the less, I am going to sit back and relax. I really value the next two weeks and do not know what I would do with out it. If you think of it like I do most people with working careers barley get a week off a year, so to get one every eleven weeks is like icing on the cake. If you are like me and work full-time it is nice to break things up a bit.

I like what you said about relaxing after 11 weeks. I work a 40+ week and take 3 online classes a quarter. When it is time for a break I am sooo ready. This break I am going to do a bit of spring cleaning. Sounds like fun huh? LOL. I do not get much time for my husband or my house cleaning during school so I usually use my time off doing things around the house and paying special attention to my wonderful understanding and very loving husband. He is an over the road truck driver so he tries to come home on the weekend so I usually do not have much more homework. (I try to get it done during the week)If I do have homework it is a joke in our house that when the bedroom door is shut do not come in unless the house is on fire. He is pretty good about letting me have the time to do my homework so when it is break time I try and let him know how much I appreciate him. Shannon

Hi I just did read your blog I am haven't done this before on here anyway, I just wanted to say I hope things do look up for next break. I am in the same boat you are. My kids and I were supposed to go to Busch Gardens in Va and things have been so busy and happening at once that we had to cancel also. Seems crazy how life works sometimes. Anyway hope you get that break soon.
