Vacations and Apologies

This is my sincere apology that I have not posted in the longest time (although I know I don't have THAT many followers, but the few I do have, I apologize to). Anyways I had my entire school year, which was a bit hectic for me, as well as summer time, which although doesn't seem very busy, is very busy, because you're looking for things to busy yourself with. I should know since I decided not to do any sort of camp this summer.

But I think vacations are much too short. Now, you're probably thinking, "Oh she's just a kid in school and thinks school is boring and stupid, so of course she thinks vacation is to short." Well, that is a WRONG statement. Well, partially wrong. I am just a kid in school. But moving ON.

1. I am in the minority of kids who do NOT think school is boring and stupid (most of the time. there are those days when you really don't want to learn and you're just too tired. But every kid has off days, am I right?). I am a pretty dedicated student, and because I care so much, I usually get along with my teacher very well, making school enjoyable for me. It's only the kids that misbehave and get yelled at all the time that usually hate school, because they hate their teacher because they YELL at them! It's pretty simple to follow.

I do my work > the teacher likes that I do my work > I like that the teacher likes me > I like school.
That's just how it works.


2. Even my MOM agrees that vacations are too short. She obviously isn't in school any more, so she isn't a biased opinion. It's hard to have family time in the summer, because sometimes kids do camps, and my dad teaches summer school sometimes, and my sister has her AP packets that keep her crazy busy for a while. So we basically have NO time. So school isn't helping families join together, although they expect the parents to be all supportive during the year.


3. Just look at the facts! One reason kids might not like school is because they have too much of it, and we have to make up days we get off....it's just not fun! Also, the ration of time we spend in school vs. out of the classroom is 10:2. Tell me that's not crazy! We only get 1/6 of the year to do what we please!


If those three reasons don't convince you, I'm not sure what will!!

I'm sorry again for my lack of devotion. I will be posting much more often now!
