    Being born a reader‚ is the way I describe my life. Sounds nice right‚ sounds powerful and like this is going to an uplifting story time. Well I’m lost. I started on a path with certainty and joy but now I am lost. I feel as if I was pushed from the road that I had chosen for myself by the society that I live within.

    Long stretch of summer vacation is one of the arguments that some parents and educators are arguing about.

Students are just humans they also need to rest and relax even just for 10-week. 10-week summer break is the time for students to enjoy and have a fun time with their family. Summer is for students
