Winter break is right around the corner and many people are excited. It’s also the season of joy and giving, so many are in spirits! I went and asked several people about their thoughts for this up coming winter break. First person to be interviewed was Elizabeth Gildon who is a student at B.Gale Wilson Middle School.
I was looking forward to see how a middle school student was feeling about winter break. When I asked Elizabeth about her plans for winter break she said she was planning to spend time with her friends most of the time by having sleepovers, shopping and going to watch movies. Elizabeth also expressed that she is really looking forward to this because school can be stressful. She said she loves to take breaks from school by being around people she loves like family and friends. Elizabeth said she can’t wait till Christmas because its when she is surrounded by loved ones and when she has the most fun.
Jameelah Woods, an Armijo student, also expressed some of the same things to me. When I interviewed Jameelah she revealed to me that she also loves to spend time with family and friends during her break. When I did ask her what she was not looking forward to this break she said being with her mom all time time because she likes being with more people than just her. Jameelah told me during her break she usually eats Mexican food all the time because this is her favorite. She also said she goes to Antioch to visit family. During our conversation she expressed a little bit about how she felt about finals. She feels stressed out but also happy to finally get it over. Jameelah also is happy to have a nice break after such a stressful time with finals.
After talking to Elizabeth and Jameelah I was able to see how winter break is really beneficial to all of us because how stressful everything can be before. Time with family without worrying about school is really the best! I really hope everyone can look forward to this Winter Break.
