Everybody here at Pittsford is anticipating spring break. Now that the weather is getting warmer, students are getting anxious. With nine days off, God only knows what kids are going to come up with to pass the time. Some students are staying here in boring Pittsford; some are going somewhere special to pass the time. Nevertheless, most students are leaving for somewhere warm because they are sick of the blistering cold weather that Michigan possesses.
Sophomore Abbie Brackman is going to down to old-timers country but in a hip place in the peninsula, Panama City. “I’m going to Panama City with my sister’s boyfriend’s family (the Scheadler’s), and my mom and my sisters,” said Abbie. Her plans include tanning, shopping, and doing nothing because that is what everyone else does on spring break! This will be Abbie’s first trip to Panama City, and I’m sure lots of fun things will be going on there.
Junior Sam Nichols is going to Myrtle Beach with her best friend, Allyssa LoPresto. They will be spending their time basking in the sun and having fun. “I plan on laying on the beach the whole time,” admitted Sam. This will be Sam’s first time vacationing at Myrtle Beach and she is definitely looking forward to it.
Another junior, Lauren Stanley, is planning on vacationing down in the Deep South to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. She doesn’t know where else she is going but she knows who is going with her. “Zach (Vanlerberg) and my parents are going with me,” explained Lauren. She plans on swimming a lot and just having good ‘ole fashion fun.
Sophomore Braily Lee is also going down south but she will be more eco-friendly, only traveling to Kentucky instead of Florida. “I am going with Katie Fether and her family,” said Braily. “We are either going up north or we are going down south, Kentucky probably,” she continued to say.
Through all of these “thrill seekers,” there are always the people who express themselves in the peaceful setting of their home. These people are, of course, not going anywhere but are still finding a way to show their outgoing side. Junior Shana June is staying home for spring break but for a good reason. She will be working at the local McDonald’s, earning money while having “fun,” as she would put it. “A lot of my friends are going somewhere, but I am staying home,” said Shana in a very disappointed tone.
Whether you are staying home or going some place far, far away, there is still one thing that is clear…you can have fun almost anywhere, but how much fun is the question.
