Imagine getting away from the monotony of your everyday life. You can lie on the beach sipping a cool drink miles away from your worries of getting a paper done or helping a customer at work.

But, all of you said that you planned to travel someday. So, why not do it sooner than later? One of the reasons for not traveling that many of you put is not having time because of school or work. Also, one of your major concerns is budgeting. Between budgets and busy schedules, it is not always easy to set aside time and plan a getaway.…
Depending on one’s geographic location and personal economic status, vacations are often regarded as the expected result of hard work or productivity. They typically act as a temporary pause on the stressors or difficult components of life and allow time for either relaxation or adventure. Despite this commonly held understanding, not all countries maintain such a positive opinion. Rather than a blissful escape from monotony, they instead view vacations as nothing more than a pitiful waste of time, energy, and critical resources.…

We should have school vacations over year round school, so because people can go on vacations during the summer. Another reason why is because year round schools takes time out of the student's family plans. I am going to Florida this summer, and if we had year round school I wouldn't be able to go without knowing what the teachers are teaching. Also I would have a lot of homework to make up.…
The best trips that my family has taken, would definately be to Disney World. Planning each detail six months in advance and having the children involved always made it an adventure. A couple of weeks prior to leaving, a party was planned for the children to provide motivation for the upcoming trip. Also, as a parent having the satisfaction of knowing how exciting these vacations were for them, was worth it all. Although, the children have grown older, they still speak of the enjoyment they received from our trips to Disney World.…

Whats a vacation without some adventure? Without some fun and some risk? Without going beyond your boundaries and trying something new? That’s what a vacation is meant for. On the shore at Maui Hawaii, I stood taking in the magnificent view-hypnotized by the scene, my mind was racing. There were endless possibilities of things that I could do, paddle boarding, kite surfing, parasailing, you name it,…

The purpose of enjoying the summer break after post-ten school was to recoup health and vitality and to provide a chance working together with older people in my village. Therefore, this easy is firstly going to talk about family’s reunion of my life, then engaging with older people for promoting literacy, and finally having picnic with relatives during break time.…

Last October 2012 is our semestrial break. It was 13 days of no classes(including weekends).My semestrial break vacation was full of fun and excitement and filled with laughter because of my friends and enemies that is so naughty, cheerful, joyous, kind, nice, humble, and understanding. In the other side its boring because in often days I’m just staying at home watching television, playing video games (like frozen throne, counter strike, Left4dead) playing computer, eating a lot of foods playing with my sisters and cousins and daily update in Facebook. Even though it’s boring I’m still happy because of my best friends who cheered me up and never forgotten me no matter what, and no matter how long time that we don’t see each other. Then the all Saints day approached and we must visit our passed away relatives in the cemetery but I was unable to go, I was so tardy that time and I’m full of laziness but in the second day of November I realized that I must go there because it is a sign of respect to our dead relatives that are buried there. When we arrived we hired some people to clean the grave of my grandfather (tatang) it was so dirty and there was so many weeds around the grave and we cant even see the words that are engraved there. After cleaning the grave, we all come together and eat our snacks that is prepared by my tita. I’m so full because of the suman we ate and the dendelot. When we got home we are all tired, so we all go to sleep and have a rest for us to be ready for tomorrow. When I waked up in the morning I realized that I have been so proud of myself to what I have done yesterday and I feel happy about…
