Then comes the much-awaited semestral break. It is not the usual one-week hiatus from going to school (after all, students are still given homeworks), that is for elementary and high school students anyway. For a college student like me (who has two semesters in a school year by the way), it means 27 days of freedom from compulsory papers, homeworks, quizzes, 1 and 1/2 hour of going to school and so much more... literally!
I will finally be able to do all the things on my own accord - no restrictions and limitations. This is the perfect time for me to make up for the many things I missed due to my school work and schedule, and accomplish everything I have set up for this break. (Hee!)
And since I'm planning to do a lot of things (which I'm certain won't be finished even if this post gets published), I will make this cyberspace my organizer for the moment, on which I can list all the things I intend to do this period.
