Break Ending

Another break comes to an end. Breaks are needed every so often to give our minds and bodies time to recuperate from the demands of college. College so far has been a journey of ups and downs. As the year comes to its end we think about what has happened our freshman, sophomore, junior or senior year. It was not until I looked at a calender and say that we only have six weeks of this year left, did I realize how fast time has flown by. This fast-approaching end is viewed differently by everyone.

When talking to one of my friends about this year ending, his reply was "No, it has been too short. I sad its going to end I've been enjoying it, besides I  do nothing at home." However, when I asked another friend about what she thought she said "I'm happy and sad. I will miss hanging out with you but not the work." I on the hand have mixed feelings about school ending. I will miss my friends since I will not be able to see them seeing how I live out of state, but I am excited to go home and spend time with my family, friends, horse and not being controlled by schoolwork. When you look on Twitter and Facebook you see posts saying things like "Finally a break.","So happy to be on break." and "I get a break from school thank god."

It seems that every person has a slightly different view. College is fun in the sense that you are living with your best friends and living on your own, but the down side is that like my dad says, school is our job. There is homework, reading, studying and tests that add to the stress of college. However there must always be trade offs in life no matter what the situation, so it can simply depend of which counts more, the pros of the cons.
