Summer vacation

Every kid looks forward to summer vacation I mean who wouldn't? We get three months off and don't have to go school or wake up early. Personally I think that high school and elementary schools should switch the start times. So the little kids would go to school earlier because they are more awake then teenagers at this hour. Studies show that teenagers do need that extra sleep to be able to be able to get through the day and be focused the whole day. I strongly believe that at least once a week we should either have a half day or early release. This would benefit both teachers and students. But if we were to dramatically change students schedules do you think it would effect them in their school environment or would they just adapt to the new schedule?

Holiday season spending

I believe that during the Holiday season most people spend more money than they should. Then again if you have the money to spoil your love ones then why not? I am a believer of if you have the money then you can spend it on whatever you want but you have to stay humble. If you are rich why do you need to rub it in everyone else’s faces. It all depends on the person you are and if you would rather get sentimental presents or designer products. We defiantly spend a lot of money on useless things during the Holiday season that could go to more efficient causes that would help those in need. During this day and age people don’t look at Christmas as a holiday or a day to celebrate the birth of Christ only on how much gifts and presents you get. I think everyone needs a reality slap in the face. We depend on name brand stuff way too much and we have to be showy with what we get. I don’t find that fair to the people who can’t afford to buy things for their loved ones.
