Any thoughts??
As my first semester of freshman year just ended at college, I basically have one month off for the break.
So aside from the usual: catching up on sleep, meeting up with my friends, and playing SC, I actually want to make some good use of my vacation rather than relaxing/doing nothing.
Any suggestions? What have you guys done in the past or are planning to do this coming break?
Please share! :D

This year is the first year that I haven't went back home for Christmas to spend it with my family and instead, stayed here where I live, about 1500 km away from my parents.
So I decided to make most of the 3,5 weeks of holidays I have and started to go to the gym. Everyday. |

Wawaweewa, a whole month! One week here =(.
I would catch up on some general reading, which is what I love to do (but never make time for during school). Relaxing is the best! I'm also spending most of the time with my family. Just do what you enjoy most! |

| I'd say that relaxing/doing nothing is a pretty good use of a holiday. |

| Read some books or take a vacation. Relax. College gets stressful as fuck. You can't be doing something 365 days a year. You'll be one of those 3rd semester wrist slitters around finals. |

1) Clean up, straighten up, other house projects.
2) Study up on something that will be helpful for your major.
3) Exercise
4) Read
5) Cook |

I'd say study, but it's so hard to do when you're home for break.
realistically, just unwind so you can be effective when you get back to school. |

For me this is the first winter break that I haven't had a job since I was 15, so I have a lot more free time than I'm used to and am kind of in the same boat as you.
My plan was just to relax, watch a lot of movies, spend time with my girlfriend, and actually TRY to get a bit of reading for next semester done while I have some free time. But that last part about reading is mainly just because I've been taking a ridiculous amount of credit hours (21 plus auditing another class) so I kind of need to do that, although the material I was planning on reading is actually pretty interesting too.
I don't think there's anything wrong with just doing nothing either though. I mean, it does get old pretty fast, but most people rarely have the time to just do nothing all day, so it's kind of a nice change to be able to not do anything all day every so often. |

| I plan to catch up on a lot of random things I haven't had enough time to do recently like: spending more time with the gf, preparing my stuff for when I move into my new place, giving my car a really good clean (rather than just a quick scrub on the outside), spending more time OUTSIDE, and playing through MGS4 (I know this is at odds with the last one, but I bought the game on release day, and havent played more than 30 - 45mins of it). |

Work/volunteer.
Long winter breaks sound great until you actually get them. I guarantee by your senior year, you'll hate having a month off. |
