<p>D has a phenomenal internship in her major for the month of January, managing details of a competition in NYC. She is very excited and will meet fantastic contacts to start her career. HA. Then we are going skiing for a week before she goes back to school.</p>
<p>“HA”</p>
<p>the ****'s that supposed to mean?</p>
<p>Good Lord, you’re only young once. Enjoy your break, but stay out of your mom’s hair! She’s likely been enjoying her break from you and will be ready to send you back to school the first chance she gets!</p>
<p>i will prefer you to go another city to spend entire month of winter break.</p>
<p>HA = Hallelujah. I love to ski.</p>
<p>Hang out with friends! Everyone’s home from college, it’s the best! Also you could sleep in, volunteer, read books, watch movies you didn’t get to see during school… Maybe even find a job and work a little.</p>
<p>Sleep A LOT.
Volunteer!</p>
<p>Go home, enjoy some much needed home cooked food, catch up with all my high school friends, and SLEEP!</p>
<p>Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeep</p>
<p>be productive</p>
<p>I’m going to be sleeping in (thank god!), reading some classics, editing some of my half-complete works, do volunteer work, excercise, study, and probably fool around with friends as well. (:</p>
<p>let me think???
in winter breaki am going to learn skiing and snowboarding because i did not try it before
i am very excited</p>
<p>Easy - the best thing to do during winter break is get ahead on spring classes. I have even requested that my video lectures be sent early.</p>
<p>If you need cash, some retailers hire seasonal help at the holidays. So you could work. Or… help your parents out around the house. Help with daily cooking, laundry, grocery shopping, driving younger siblings around, cleaning, shoveling, repairs, etc. Your parents will be thrilled, I assure you. If they are paying any of your tuition, you should feel pretty good about taking some of the load off them while you are home and not in school or working. Cuz they are taking a load off you with any contribution they make to pay for your schooling.</p>
<p>Mammoth here I come…Going to rent a place there for a couple of days with a few friends. Definitely the best place to go skiing or boarding on the west coast. Anyone else ever been there? </p>
<p>working/volunteering</p>
<p>Also going to have to finish up my transfer apps :(</p>
<p>Most definitely go get a job. I’ve already gotten one great job and now I have another place really wanting to hire me. Retail people will love you because you will [most likely] have open availability during the holiday season. </p>
<p>This is also a chance to get GREAT employee discounts! I’m so excited about this- I’ll be buying clothes for next to nothing!</p>
<p>That Cicago trip sounds great. I just went for our Fall break and LOVED it. Can’t wait to go back.</p>
<p>I’m staying in my house on either end of break so I’ll only be home 14 days at most. While I’m there, I’ll enjoy the snow, find a new coffee shop with my best friend, and hopefully go to NYC. Probably play a lot of board/card games too (Coda, Monopoly, Chess, Scrabble, Canasta, Hearts). May relearn solving a Rubik’s cube too if I get bored enough.</p>
<p>I live in the middle of nowhere VT so I understand being bored at home. I can only be home for two weeks at the most before I can’t take it any more. At least you probably have cell service at home though… I don’t.</p>
<p>I’m at a community college at the moment so I’ll be spending most of Winter Break taking a humanities course M-Sa during intercession. I also have a job so if I wasn’t going to take that class I was going to pick up more hours, but I’d rather take an extra class and just work a few hours a week during WB. That will make my time go by very fast for me.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>MAMMOOOOOTH!</p>
<p>Maybe you’ll be renting my family’s place. We have a summerhome there. It’s an awesome mountain!</p>
<p>On topic: ruminate about the meaning of life. One month should give you certainly enough time.</p>
<p>How about signing up for classes in community college…
Or
Get some volunteer service (try doing something that you are passionate about)</p>
