WHAT PEOPLE DO OVER WINTER BREAK

Over winter break I hangout with my friends, play sports, and sleep most of the day. I always look forward for hanging with my friends, because I enjoy the sleep-overs we have and the long serious talks. Over time my friends family becomes my own; we all become very close. On this topic I interviewed five different types of people:

• black
• white
• mexican
• mixed

Lately I've realized how many people are involved or enjoy the same activities. Over winter break , all of my five interviewees said that they only travel far for holidays. This means on other days there around there home town doing stuff. Most people hangout with their friends over there family. The people i interview said that there not that close to there family... plus its boring at home. Most people over break do:

• watch t.v
• play video games
• and/or hangout with friends

Lately one of my interviewees told me that their parent told them .... "winter break is time off of school to celebrate the holidays with you family." And she responded that they don't understand why many of us students hangout with our friends," so I asked some more interviewers. I was told that there friends are there family, and their friends family are another part of their family to. Now in my own personal experience, i agree with the responses of the students i interviewed. For example one interviewer said there never at home during the weekend, and when they are home they never spend time with their family, so what's the difference of being home or not. Winter break is time for us students to have fun and explore. The holidays are the family events not the whole winter break. So from this day forward when people ask me what "we" kids do over break, i say "we enjoy our selfs."
