Sparkle and dazzle! Holiday season 2011 is very much upon us. With twelve days until Thanksgiving and forty-three days until Christmas, the time has come once again to bundle up for cold weather, buy ugly sweaters for ugly sweater parties, prepare for family gatherings and (usually) a break from college.
Ah yes, the college Christmas break. Kicks the crap out of the short Christmas break most people had through grade school. This year I receive three and a half weeks off and I'll graciously accept those weeks thank you. It's not that I am not fond of college, but a break is just peachy! Then there are those people that the college Christmas break is "too long" for them. What did you just say? Too long? You "get bored"? What are you retired? We are young, go out and do something for the love of God. I blame people like that for the shorter Christmas break this year compared to my four full weeks last year! I say, hey college, if you want to give me that extra half a week, I will not argue you. I will not say I'm bored and want to sit in those uncomfortable desks ASAP. Breaks are necessary! It's refreshing to meet up with friends and family that have been absent for a bit. It's nice to, for one day, have a "I do what I want" day. If you're reading this "It's too long" person, just hush up will you?
In closing, Bring It On Holiday Break twenty-eleven I'll greet you with open arms.
