Winter Break is the best time of year to enjoy not only yourself but your friends and family too. There are so many things to do during this 18 day period. Some of these things include taking care of yourself and coming up with fun activities to do with the people you care about. These activities can make your winter break even better than it already is.
Being with family is one of the first things people would like to do during the holiday season. With Christmas being right around the corner it only makes sense to spend quality time with family. Some fun ideas to do include making gingerbread houses and baking cookies. If you would rather spend time outside maybe consider going ice skating to pass the time. There are so many things to do with family during this long break however, family isn’t the only people you can be spending time with.
Friends are also important people in our lives that we can spend time with.. When asked, “What do you usually do when you hang out with friends during winter break”, Chloe Gabriel, a Sophomore at Liberty, states “We walk around, go shopping and find funky stores to take pictures in.” When James Moe, a Junior at Liberty, was asked the same question he responded with, “Listen to music, watch movies, get food, and chill.” There are many ideas to do with friends whether it be taking funky poses with them or just talking and hanging out, there is always something fun to do and even more ideas to explore.
Winter Break isn’t just a time to enjoy spending time with others but also focusing on yourself making sure you are happy. Trying to get a good sleep schedule after stressful exams or stated by James , “Working out and losing weight.” Even if Christmas is the holiday of giving, you should also give to yourself by gifting your mind and body rest.
Other fun ideas are to challenge yourself. Talk to old friends you haven’t talked to in years, confess to your crush, or plan a surprise holiday date for your significant other. It’s never too late. You might just unlock a new favorite memory.
With all these important people in our lives buying gifts for them can also be a fun idea to do over winter break.
