Recreation and Summer
[Can you help me come up with a hook for this story?] Summer is a great time of the year for every person younger than eighteen because it is a time of year you have little to no responsibilities. You can sleep in, relax, hang out with friends or just do whatever you want all summer long. These are the reasons I love summer. My summer this year has been great because there was always something to do, whether it was playing games, to going to seeing a movie, to hanging out with friends. The majority of every one of my summers is spent on one thing, games. I was playing everything from Legend of Zelda on the Nintendo 64, to Skyrim on my computer, to Sega Superstar Tennis on the Wii. I am just relaxing on my bed shooting zombies rather than having Math, English, History, etc. I don’t need to go to an amusement park or visit another country to have an awesome summer, just give me a good game and I’m happy. Relaxing in your room and gaming is the definition of summer to me. I don’t think I can think of a summer with absolutely no gaming. Gaming helped make this summer great to me.

One of the best parts of the summer is getting to hang out with your friends. This year I got to hang out with friends more than normal making my summer even better. I got to hang out with them by Skype calling each other and playing Team Fortress 2. We would get together in person, and then we would go home and play and talk for hours more. Sometimes my friends, Austin and Brian would just start playing together and talking. We didn’t have to deal with the hassle of cleaning our rooms, driving to each other’s houses, and we could just be sitting there in our underwear on our beds. We could just hangout talk and have fun gaming together. Hanging out with friends is part of what made this summer great.

While friends and gaming made my summer better, every summer I game and hang out with friends. This year, however, my family and I went to see a whole lot of movies and

    I didn’t really do much over the summer. We went to Indiana beach, and I am not too fond of roller coasters, or any ride for that matter, except for at water parks. Last year in 7th grade we went to Washington D.C and saw the washington monument, lincoln memorial, we went inside the Capitol building, The Changing of the Guard at Arlington cemetery, saw The White House. That didn’t really interest me, I don’t even have any souvenirs! Even earlier in the year, we went to Buffalo, New York. We saw a football game (the team we were rooting for lost,(TO THE JETS!) and we got to see Niagara Falls.…

    Summer is a season where individuals can experience activities like camping, hiking, swimming, traveling, etc. However it’s difficult for students to come across these events if there is school all year long. With one month in the summer, there is close to nothing that can be accomplished. A mom of five says, “Growing pains and lessons are learned through summer jobs, programs and freedom with friends” (Butler 1). Kids are only kids till they turn 18. Adolescents need their own free time to explore beyond education since, “A child’s life is not just school” (1). In school, teachers always mention “the real world”, and teens today often apply for summer jobs. Taking their summer away will only take away their chance to experience this “real world” they occasionally talk about. When a student is constantly being blocked by school from experiencing hardships, freedom, independence, or responsibilities, they won’t get the chance to familiarize with the rest of the…

    Summer 2010 was great for me. I did a lot of stuff this summer and hung out with a lot of friends but the highlight was riding to Wasco every Saturday morning. I would meet up with Chris Impson and we would usually hang out for the whole day. I live in St. Charles so I would have a 8 mile ride down there and sometimes we would ride bikes all the way back to my house so it was quite the work out. Other days I would ride my bike to Wasco and meet up with Christopher then ride to another friends house and spend the day there. I am really satisfied with the way my summer went. I did more than just saw friends though, I went to Wisconsin, spent a week in Missouri by myself, and rode dirt bikes on our farm. While I was in Missouri I did a lot like help my Grandpa out and played a lot of baseball.…

    The next day my mom sat me on the couch in front of the television, and they left to snowboard, which I gave them permission to do. Alone at the hotel, I was very gloomy. I was alone and there was snow outside. Living in Houston, we didn’t get a lot of the powdery, light, soft, icy rain that fell from the sky, and I was missing out. The next day was the same, boring and uneventful. By that time, I was depressed and bored beyond imaginable. I was beginning to think it was a waste of a vacation, and I could be doing so much more with my time, so I decided to change that.…

    The beginning of Christmas break was awesome. We had a relaxing day and after school, Ella, Taylor, Seamus, Motse, Christina, and I went into to courtyard and gave each other our secret santa gifts. Seamus was my secret santa and I was Motse’s but I gave presents to everyone. I also got awesome Christmas presents from Kaitlyn and Weronika. From them I got two steven universe tee shirts, a steven universe beanie, a marcelline statue, another beanie, lipsticks, and an iTunes gift card.
