Finally, I have a “real” summer vacation! Before August 20th, I had to go to school everyday, but that wasn't the worst part! The worst part was that we had a test everyday! Whenever I got home from school, I couldn't watch TV or play with my dog. I didn't even have time to read novels. I always had to study to prepare for the next day's tests, but now, it's totally different! I have lots of time to read novels, like Harry Potter, Twilight, and so on. I can watch TV programs I like. The important thing is, I don't need to get up so early in the morning and go to bed late at night any more. I can control each day and just take it easy. I felt like everything was perfect when I left school. All the students were smiling, and even the cars seemed happy for us, too! I wish school didn't have to start again, but that would never happen.
