I just want to be done with finals, and then play with oil pastels all winter break and try out charcoal without having it be an assignment, and I want buy presents for everyone this Christmas, and I want to watch movies and be lazy and hang out with friends that I didn’t have time to see over Thanksgiving break, and sing karaoke with them, and have sleepovers and nice long talks about nothing, and tie-dye shoes, and make shirts, and learn how to knit hats, and make ice cream and drink hot chocolate, and write about everything I have been wanting to write about, and take pictures, and hang out with family, and make smoothies and chicken nuggets, and make popcorn, and make movies, and have dance parties and pull all-nighters, and go sledding down Nippo Lake.
I don’t want to work all vacation to pay for my life during Spring semester.
