That's it for this year for me, a nice 6 week long break awaits! Who else has broken up from school?

I have, and I'm two weeks into it. Although my holiday is eight weeks long, but that's because I have longer school days.

Oh cool. Are you going anywhere this summer?

I will be going to York to stay round a friend's house for a few days. Not sure exactly what I'll be doing, but it'll probably involve a walk all across the castle wall for excersize like it did last time. Otherwise, I'm not entirely sure. What do you usually do in the summer holidays?

Well, I'm going to Turkey for a couple of weeks but apart from that I do absolutely fuck all which is just the way I like it after a long year of school and exams etc. York sounds interesting, a few of my favourite bands come from there. I should probably go to places like York but I really cba. Laziness FTW...

To me, Turkey sounds more fun, but then again, that's just because it's abroad. Why is it that holidays abroad seem to sound more appealing than holidays in your own country? Or is it just me?

Not just you. It's cause it's hot and you actually get a good tan in these countries. They have good beaches and shit anyway unlike Great Britain, where the best we can come up with is shitholes like Brighton, Littlehampton and stuff. Plus, you can get shit for cheap at airports because of duty free.

Yeah, that's true. I also suppose it's a different experience in a different country as in different culture, different climate, different appearance, etc. So, what do you (and anyone else who cares to answer) like doing in the holidays when you're not actually on holiday as such (as in when you're staying at home or at a friend's or relative's)?

Erm, well I might go Thorpe Park or something with family and go out with friends sometimes but usually I just sleep and generally be lazy. I can never think of stuff to do in the summer. Oh, I just realised that it's just us two on the thread now. Other people, you can join in if you want :D.

I'm quite lzy in summers too - I spend a lot of time sleeping. Anyway, it hasn't occured to me until now that this is kinda like PMs! So, what do other people like doing in their summers?

I think I'm starting school again on Tuesday in six weeks time (don't remember the exact date). Can't say I'm looking forward to doing my GCSEs for year 11 though.

Hope you don't mind me asking, but why do you prefer school over home? Wouldn't' you like to do your own things once in a while?

Oh, well sorry to hear that. But in a way, that can also be advantageous (when it comes to schoolwork).

Jeez, some of these people JUST got out!
Our school District got out on May, 26. (But that is just because of snow days, we are usually out May, 19.)
It starts again on August, 23, and football starts on August, 16.

That's pretty much the same for me... Not sure about when we go back though... All I know is I can consider my summer over because of my broken ankle.
