So uh, what the hell is everybody doing?

My spring break is almost over now, so I guess I'm a little late with the spring break thread designation, but whatever, I'm also stoned.

Bleh! I haven't done much of anything thus far, I have been working all week, it's relatively easy work, and while I have the chance I might as well get a good 30-40 hours in, because when I go back to school I only get around 20 hours a week.

Although I've also been getting drunk every night, so work has sucked ass, good thing I'm my own boss, sort of, in a weird family related business type of way.

My big vacation is coming this summer when my friend and I go back over to Europe, I spent all summer in Schorndorf, Germany last year, and we're going back this year, except instead of being an exchange student we're going solo, and probably going to travel around a little. Last year I saw Switzerland, Austria, and a few other dink ass countries.

I just rambled way too much, sorry.

Negative.

I guess a while back American college students, along with high school students decided that there needed to be a break between Christmas and Easter, that started spring, and also doubled as being an excellent excuse to go to Mexico and get drunk off your ass every day.

So... That's spring break.

Go to google.com and type in MTV Spring Break, you'll see how ****ing lame it really is.

Easter is never much now though. It isn't a huge vacation. A day or two, maybe. Anyways. I went to Paris.

Ah right.

Our Easter holidays are (in educational terms) 2-3 weeks in length.

Well, you more than make up for us in Summer, then.

Christmas is just a couple of weeks for us as well, and Summer tends to be around 2 months. Uni students get a hell of a lot more than that, but for schools it's usually about 7-8 weeks, which is just under 2 months.
