As many of you know our first October break is coming up in about two weeks. This will be giving us a break for our mental and physical health, and time to relax from anything school related.
An idea for this coming up break is spending time with your family and friends. Usually when school comes around we get very distant from the people we most care about. Mostly because we are very busy and dedicate most of our time to school and extracurricular activities. This would be the perfect time to hang around with them and make memorable memories. Or this could even be a break to pick yourself up and refresh. Here’s a perfect list on what to do.
- Cleaning around your house. Just like there is spring cleaning, make fall cleaning a thing. We tend to get very lazy when school starts and most of the time our rooms become really messy. Take out any clothes you don't use as much anymore, clean out any papers you might not need anymore and do laundry. Doing all of this will have you feeling fresh and you will be more comfortable around your room.
- Spooky season activities. An example is going to a pumpkin patch or carving a pumpkin. Since our break is at the beginning of October, this is where you can prepare for one of the best months of the year. You can also go to mazes, which usually begin around the end of September. A cute trend that has been going around is making spooky baskets, usually full of Halloween related snacks and gifts. Most important, don't forget to decorate your house full of spooky ornaments.
- Dinner dates. Something that might be very fun for you and your friends or family is going out to eat together. This will give you time to catch up with each other and enjoy your loved ones presence. Here is a list of places that are very good in my opinion: Wing Stop, Boiling crab, Buca di Beppo, Bj’s, and Five Guys.
