The Best Break
(Just for Fun, Class of 2015)
Permanent link
All Posts
In July I went home! Probably the best break that I’ve had in a long time. After winter leave I had some regrets so I really wanted to take advantage of hanging out with the people that I still keep in touch with. You’ll be surprised that when you get your Facebook taken away for all of freshman year that only you’re true friends will actually go out of their way to find other ways to communicate. I kept in touch with only six people give or take a few. Anyways, I really wanted to take this break to spend time with people, as I said, and just sit back and do nothing because when you’re at the Academy there isn’t a moment where you just chill out. Even on the weekends you’re either doing homework or trying to get away and have a semi-real life. So I did what I set out to accomplish, which is a bit more difficult that it seems to be. I don’t think I could have had a better time on break. That’s all.
