Q: What were the highlights of your holiday break?
My favorite part of holiday break was seeing my cousins on Christmas Day. There are ten of us and we have always been really close. The youngest is 10 and the oldest is 18. We play a lot of games together, like Ghosts in the Graveyard, Spoons, and Ultimate Werewolf. Then on the Friday after Christmas some of us met up and went bowling. I also did a lot of other fun things. My family and I went to LumiNature at the Philadelphia Zoo, and we saw my cousin Sasha in the Pennsylvania Nutcracker. Also, I had my friend come over, and later my Uncle, who lives in Los Angeles, came over for dinner and we got to play on my new Wii U with him. On Tuesday we went to the Mütter Museum with my Grandpa. It was really gross but also kind of cool. -Riley S. The highlights of my break was getting to spend time with my family. I also enjoyed not having to go to school and getting to have a break from the work. I also enjoyed eating all of the food that my family had made like some many different kinds of Christmas cookies. -Madison L. Q: How do you usually spend you New Year’s Eve? Usually, on New Years Eve all of the family’s on my Mom/s side meet in Philadelphia to watch the fireworks. Then we go to a Vietnamese restaurant for dinner. -Riley S. Usually just with my family. We try to go on vacation during the holiday breaks, so that is always very fun. Because I am usually celebrating the New Year a few hours before or after my friends, I don't make a big deal out of reaching out to people to wish them a Happy New Year. Regardless, this holiday is very relaxing and a nice start to the year before school begins again. -Anonymous I usually spend it with my family, but this year I went over to my friend’s house. At my friend’s house we just hung out and watched the countdown on the tv, and we also just enjoyed the new year. -Madison L. Q: What are some of your goals this year? This year, I have a lot of goals. I want to jump rope every day, try to be kinder when I am in a bad mood, and get the Central Bucks School District cafeterias to have reusable, stainless steel utensils, or at least compostable utensils so that we can reduce how much trash we produce. -Riley S. I am trying not to procrastinate with my schoolwork, which I always do. Also, my time-management skills need work. Besides this, I want to involve myself a bit more in the community, maybe through volunteering or a team sport. -Anonymous Some of the goals I have this year is to try to get distinguished honors for all marking periods. And also, to do well in soccer and try to get at least 12 goals this year. -Madison L. Q: Do you usually meet your New Year’s resolutions? Why or why not? I usually try to get to my new year’s resolution, but mostly I don’t end up completing it. It’s not because I give up its because its my luck that it wouldn’t happen. I will mostly achieve my goal of scoring at least 12 goals in soccer, but the first goal I mostly will end up getting at least 2 distinguished honors. -Madison L. Q: What are you looking forward to this year? This year I am looking forward to over the summer. My brother is going out west to do a paleontological dig, and during that time I am going to try to volunteer at an animal shelter. -Riley S. I’m looking forward to the summer starting and this year I feel like would be the best summer to hang out with friends and just relax. I can’t wait to not be in school and have a break from all the schoolwork. -Madison L. Write your own question! Q: What was your favorite thing that happened last year? A: One of my favorite things that happened last was getting to go to Hawaii. It was the highlight of my year because I got to see stuff that just wasn’t at the new jersey beaches. I got to explore and see things I would probably never see again. -Madison L.
