Narrative Essay About Christmas Break

Improved Essays
Christmas break in my opinion is probably the second best brake that we have throughout our school year. The main thing I like about Christmas break is how long it is. But even though I like how long we are off school it's almost like we don't have a break because basketball takes over. We get a few days off but the rest of the days are hitting the gym early in the mornings for two to three hours a day. The days I have is the best thing in the world because I get to relax and do something fun for once. This break consisted of me and my family going to Indy to shop and celebrate a birthday and going to a Notre Dame girls basketball game. I was very excited and looked forward to doing these two things.
I love my family very much and was very excited I got to experience these things with them. Our first trip was to

I have only been to Indy a couple times before for basketball, but never to just enjoy the city itself. I love the big city that Indy is and seeing all the beautiful buildings. Seeing all the beautiful lights at night it a once in a lifetime viewing. I wish I could go to Indy for fun more often because I love it that much. One thing I hate about going to Indy is the three to four hour drive there. I hate long car rides and heavy traffic. It wasn't till late afternoon till we left for the road trip. Not only were we going for fun, but also celebrating what seemed to be my second dads birthday. Later that night when we arrived we walked around the big Christmas tree in the center of the town. It was one of the biggest lit up Christmas trees I have ever seen. Seven o'clock rolled around and it was time for our dinner reservations. We ate at a fancy restaurant called Oceanaire. It consisted of all fresh seafood, which is my favorite type of food. I ordered a

    The anticipation for Thanksgiving break is over the top. The thought of home cooked meals, family, and no professors talking a student 's ear off for a week are heavenly. Of course all the classic thanksgiving things happen but there are also psychological things that go on. (Darn that psychology sneaking its way into everything, it obviously never goes on break.) Although psychology is used every minute of every day i 'm only going to talk about 5 concepts, persuasion, cognition, emotion, personality, and the self. So sit back and get ready to eat some turkey.…

    Despite my birthday being on December 23, the middle of Christmas, I went out with all my friends. For example, that day since 12 am I got birthday messages that were all very special and almost made me cry. I also got cards delivered to my house. However, what was most valuable to me was spending time with my friends. First we went to eat and then we went shopping. It was a very memorable moment because all of the people I cared about were there. It will unquestionably be a moment I will never forget. Something else you should know about my break is that I went to Cartagena because I had a glorious time. For example, I got to do a photoshoot at the beach with a professional photographer. That occasion was fabulous and I relished it very much. Furthermore, I spent a lot of time with my family especially with my little brother Pablo. We went to the beach and…

    This year, me and my family went to the amazing Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri. We went for six days and even though it doesn't seem like that long, we got a lot of things in. We got to swim, go boating, go out to eat, and go shopping. This will have been the sixth time we have gone with my aunt and uncle and one year, our grandparents even came with us! Lake of the Ozarks is my favorite place to go.…

    I loved the trip to Atlanta, Georgia I took with my mom’s side of the family. First I went to the Atlanta mall. There, we tramped through variety stores, and we watched Vacation in a wicked movie theater. Then, we rode a shuttle to my cousin’s beautiful wedding and elegant reception. The reception was full of caterers, amazing food, a drink bar, desserts, and a lot of other amazing stuff. Last, we went to the Atlanta Aquarium. The Aquarium was full of sound effects, a dolphin show, marine animals, and a lot of amazing things to do. I had an amazing and fun time in Atlanta, Georgia.…

    Over these past seven weeks we have gone over a large amount of material. Starting from the basics of understanding how to interpret meanings in the bible, all the way up to the time when the barbarians were invading the European countries. I was not expecting this type of background information for this course. Back when I was scheduling in April, I was super excited to take this course (and still am). I figured I would learn interesting information about Christmas, my favorite holiday, but little did I know the surprises that would come……

    I distinctly remember getting up one Saturday morning during Christmas break and knowing from that instant that something was wrong. I had a feeling in my gut, I did not smell the cinnamon rolls baking in the oven, the TV was blaring, and my parents bed was not made. I walk out into the living room to find my mom and dad glued to CNN news channel on the TV. It had been two weeks since my brother’s last shore leave on deployment, which means it had been two weeks since we have heard from him. The TV was flashing and the headlines were running across the screen. They read “two fighter jets from the USS Vinson collide and pilots eject into the Mediterranean Sea”. My dad had a blank stare and his mouth was gaping open and my mother’s eyes…

    Over the summer, I went to go visit my aunt Kim and uncle Tom in Schertz, Texas. This was my very first vacation with extended family all alone. I had been on vacations with friends but this felt different. This felt more independent and responsible to me. My older sister, Sophia, had gone to visit them when she was 13 so it was my turn. Aunt Kim had started a tradition this way. When my little sister turns 13, she'll have her turn as well. We drove all the way from my home in Dubuque to Schertz which is neighboring on San Antonio. It took nearly 18 hours with all the stops. Imagine being stuck…
