Plans

Hello my blog! I missed you so much! I haven't had any time for blogging lately. Life has been pretty hectic recently. But finally, I have time to wind down for a bit and relax. Finals just finished, and a new term is approaching soon.

Vacation. It's what most people look forward to after a long time of studying or working. It could mean a trip to the beach, a wild party, or even just a cup of chocolate and a nice book. It's a way to just relax and have fun doing anything you want. Some people like to go with the flow during their vacations, but there are others that like to plan things out.

Say that you were given a two month vacation. What would you do? Plan a trip to another country? Go site-seeing? Visit some relatives? Or would you just keep yourself at hope and spend the entire day in your pajamas? Different people have different perspectives as to how they want to spend their free time. What the word 'vacation' means to you could be entirely different from the thoughts of the person next to you. And that's fine. It's our own thoughts and opinions, so why should others influence us?

Now think about this. You just finished an entire term of stress in college. You passed all of your finals, submitted all of your projects. You're relieved that you actually survived the entire term with all of your limbs intact. Your long-awaited vacation is just about to start. But wait, there's a catch. The term break is only three days long.

What would YOU do? Actually, there are many things that can be done in the span of three days. You can catch up on sleep that you lost during the finals week. You can watch a few series that you missed out on. You can play a few games. You could spend your vacation like any other long weekend.

But then again, would you really want your vacation to be that monotonous? I personally wouldn't. I mean, this is still different from your normal long weekend. This is the only time where there is no stress involved. No worrying about assignments due on Monday. No fretting over quizzes and tests the following week. No nothing.

I would prefer to spend my short vacation having a blast. And that's exactly what I'm planning to do. My bags are packed and ready to go. I'm gonna be going on a two day / one night trip to Subic with my friends. And boy, our schedule is packed! We have some time at the beach, hiking, eating out, and just having fun. It's time to just forget about the start of classes for a while, and just to enjoy the time now.
