The peak of my break was New Years Eve. First, my family and I went to a family friend's house, and I got to see all the people that I only get to see on New Year. We played games and ate food all night. Finally, it was midnight it seemed like forever! In conclusion New Years Eve was the peek of my break because I get to see people that I never get to see.

The pit of my break was the weather. First, there was no snow. It was 50 degrees on Christmas. My family ended up having a bonfire. Secondly, scene it was so worm out it didn't even feel like Christmas. In conclusion the pit of mt break was the weather. `

Dear Mave,

1) The peak of my break was going to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens. First, my parents wanted to surprise me with it, so they said that we were going to a party hosted by my mom's boss. However, it ended up back firing on them because I was on my fourth straight hour ofStar Wars: Battlefront and I did not want to leave my room. Consequently, my dad finally convinced me that there will be girls (and food) at the party. I was overwhelmed with a feeling of shock and awe when we pulled into the theater parking lot. So in conclusion, the best part of my break was getting a surprise viewing of the new Star Wars movie.

2) The pit of my break was watching my cousins. First off, My 3rd cousins, along with their parents which are my second cousins where staying at my aunt's house next door. Subsequently, I awoke every morning for the next three days with a knock on our door followed by my cousins pestering me to play my Plaaystation 4. Also, they would fight amongst themselves and come to me with every little problem they had. Therefore, watching my cousins was the pit of my break.

3) Dear Brenden,

I too went to go see Star Wars: The Force Awaken. First, I'm a little bit jealous that you got to see it in IMAX. Furthermore, I don't have a brother, but I do have roughly 60 great uncles, great aunts, cousins, second cousins and third cousins that I only get to see at Christmas time, and I know how it feels to finally catch up with family after long periods of time. Finally, it seems that you had a very good break and that you got to see your brother after quite a while, which must have meant a lot to you.

The peak of my break was going to a friends house.

The pit of my break was my mom and sibilings moved out.

Dear Rianne your break sounds horrible. But it was similar because i didnt want to wake up either.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The peak of my break was being able to wake up on Christmas morning. I love receiving all my presents. I received money, games, and clothes. I like going bed earlier on Christmas Eve to wake up on Christmas wide awake. Last but not least I love waking up to Christmas breakfast. That is the best thing about Christmas.

2. The pit of my break was not having snow this year for this years Christmas. I wasn't able to drift in my back yard with my truck. Secondly i wasn't able to snowboard at all this year so far. I haven't been able to be pulled on a sled by a motorized vehicle.

3. Dear Mitchell Keith, your peak and my peak of our breaks are very similar about waking up on Christmas and opening gifts.

# data[].attributes.body
The best part of my Christmas was buying my fist car and seeing family i haven't seen in a while and another fun part was going out and hunting. I enjoyed spending time with my family and being able to see them again.

The worst part of my Christmas was not being able to see my dad as much as i wanted to and not spending that much time with him. Another bad part of my Christmas was not getting out side and being that active.

Dear Kalvin, you sounded like you had a great Christmas break with your family and going hunting. The only similar thing we did was go hunting.

1.the peek of my break was geting a dog i was going to get him on Christmis eve but my mom and dad got him the day befroe and suprized me when I got home from work.

lp2.the pit of my break was when i was on my quad and was a few miles away from home with out my phone and ran out of gas and had to walk all the way home pushing it half way home.

your break sound fun and ours was simmiler my grandma makes ham for christmas eve and steak to eat.

The peak of my break was going shopping with my friend, Julia. First, we didn't know what we were going to buy, but we ended up getting great deals. Also, Julia's mom and step dad went to a movie while we shopped, so I had her mom get me a refill on her popcorn, which was delicious. I ended up buying new hoodies, jeans, and even taco bell. In conclusion, I'm very happy with the purchases I made over break.

The pit of my break was not being able to open presents Christmas morning. First, my brother was going to stay home and celebrate Christmas with our mom. Then he decides, at the last minute, to go to his dad's and open presents there Christmas morning. So instead we waited to open all the presents when he got home, which was six o'clock at night. In conclusion, this isn't the worst thing that could've happened, but I sure hope it doesn't happen again.

Dear Ryan Farquhar,

Though I love you with all of my heart, you have an addiction to pizza rolls. First of all, I feel they are getting in the way of our relationship. It's not my fault I'm not pizza filled and you can't dip me in ranch. Furthermore, you're going to end up on 'My 600 lb Life' if you don't cool it. In conclusion, please take this all into consideration and break it off now with the pizza rolls before it's too late.

The peak of my Christmas break was hanging out with my cousins and the rest of my family and opening presents.

The pit of my Christmas break was when me and my brother were pulling each other through the woods on a sled with the four-wheeler. It was really fun until he decided to fling me across the "frozen" pond and i broke though the ice. i was soak and freezing. It was a long ride back to the house.

Dear Jacob Jonseck, Sounds like you had fun during break. the pit of your break i think everyone felt waking up this morning.

# data[].attributes.body
1) The peak of my break was being able to spend time with my cousins and family. First, Christmas morning everyone got up to open gifts and after we had to get ready to leave to my uncle's house. Second, By the time we got to my Uncle's house everyone was there and waiting to play the elephant game. lastly, The next day my sister took me to go see the movie sisters, which was a really funny movie. In conclusion, the peak of my break was spending time with family.

2) The pit of my break was most likely having to worry about homework. First, I was going to start my homework the day I got home from school, but instead I just decided to watch TV. Second, I waited so long that there was only a few days left of break and I still had to finish my homework packet and finish reading my book. Therefore, the next time I have homework on break I will finish it to get it all out of the way.

Dear Christina Keegan,

It sounds like you had an exciting break, hanging out with your cousins and getting to meet new family members for the first time. overall, your Christmas Break sounded interesting.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The peak of my Christmas break would have to be around Christmas time when I went to my grandma's house.b This is one of my favorite times of year when I get to go to my families house to celebrate on Christmas Eve. We usually have an annual dinner and then a little while after that we'll pass presents around the room, and obviously open them around the tree. I just love going to my grandma's house and spending time with family because I feel like we don't go enough. I will always remember this break because my dad and I actually went shopping for other people's presents this year(he doesn't usually do that).

2.The pit of my Christmas break would have to be the last weekend of break around New Years where we had to go back to school. This is my pit because I really hate going back to school after such a long break. This was one my best breaks ever though which adds to the fact of me hating going back to school. Anyway this really was not my favorite part of break because I had to leave my dad's house and the next day go back to school and not have another thing like this until Spring,

The peak of my break was waking Christmas morning and going out in the living room and seeing all the gifts that where sitting there. I was so surprised, so i was to lazy to go back to bed so i sleeped on the couch till morning.My brother woke me up and said,"get up where opening gifts",as soon as he said that i stood faster than a dog when it gets a treat.

I'd have to say the pit of the va-ca was looking outside and there was no snow at all.I was so dippresed,i was waiting to go snow boarding on the new ramp my dad made.The best thing besides that was playing out in the mud.Not only was it muddy but it was rainy and cold.

Dear,Dylan Daggett

I hear you man it is always the best thing to be with your grandmother on Christmas.I also have a nice dinner every Christmas eve also.The last week of break does stink but you get used to it.Hope you had a great break.

1 The peak of my break was going to my grandparents and seeing my family. First, we spent the night at my grandparents the day before Christmas eve. Then, we went to my grandparents house and we went swimming. Finally,we went home and played a game before bed.

2.The pit of my break was I couldn't go see a movie cause we had work to do around the house.And the fact that state lost.

The peak of my break was hanging out with my friends and family. I enjoyed staying at home and at friends houses and just relaxing with nothing to worry about. One night, Kelly, Janessa, and I ordered a pizza thinking they delivered. It turns out that the day before we ordered the pizza they stopped delivering.So, we decided to walk all the way into town and back.

The pit of my break was knowing that I had to wake up in the morning and go back to school. I am going to miss sleeping in.

Dear Isiah, are break sounds similar because you hung out with friends

1.) The peak of my break was getting to work at 4 square in jeddo. I liked working because i get to work with my cousin i rarely get to see. Then i get paid a lot of money for a generally easy job. Plus i think working their is fun. I get to ride a quad all day through mud and snow.

2.) The pit of my break was having to go back to school. Because I can't sleep in anymore.

3.) Dear Dylan M, i hated the night before school too

1. The peak of my break was getting to see my dad and getting closer with my mom a little. It would of been going to Indianapolis to see my sister and niece ... But my brother bailed on me... Other than that, my cow had a calf the day before Christmas and it's name is Ammo. Then after that, I had a New Years party with a bunch of friends and my dad, we all had fun.

2. The pit of my break was getting into a (verbal) fight with my mom on new years, we don't get along at all and it always happens. Then my 32 year old sister called me crying because she missed my mom an I and wanted us to be there for Christmas. Also, not being able to see any of my brothers on Christmas was probably the worst part. I haven't seen my brothers in over 3 years because they think they're too good for family.

1) The peak of my break was when I got a portable DVD player for Christmas. I also got the new Fantastic 4 movie. My foster mom also took me to the Humane Society, and we got two kittens.

2) The pit of my break was when I didn't get any 3DS games, but I still got Pokemon cards.

3) Dear Rianne Helewski,

I think it was dumb how the pizza place stopped delivering the day before, but I think pizza is worth walking out in the cold for.

1) The peak of my Christmas break was when my grandpa and my mom took my brother and I to a water park. This was the first trip we all went on together. We had a lot of fun. I had an amazing time and that is why i will always remember this break Another amazing part about my break was that i got to see a friend who i haven't seen in a really long time. We went and seen the new Star Wars movie.

2) The pit of my break was when i got into a fight with my brother and my sister. Eventually our fight brought us closer together i think. That was the worst part about break.

3) Dear Jenna Crerar,

Your break sounds very fun and kind of boring (even though i wasn't mentioned) . Your school morning was worse than mine. i Hope you have a better one tomorrow. Next food for breakfast is over rated anyway you dont really need breakfast.

1) The peak of my Christmas break was my family going up to Kalcaska to my cabin. It was really fun cause it's in the middle of the woods with no electricity and no running water. Also,I got to close out the hunting season and see my grandparents up there. In conclusion,I had a good break.

2) The pit of my break was I didn't get a deer and when we came home. The reason I didn't want to come him is because my brother and sister came home from college and they had to go back when we came home. Also,we throw a Christmas eve party with all my aunts,uncles,and cousins I don't see much and not many people could make it this year. In conclusion,I still had a good break.

3) Dear Jeremy Darling,I think you had a great Christmas and it sounds a lot like mine with the hanging out with you cousins and family. Also how you had a Christmas eve party too. In conclusion,I think you had a great break.

1. The peak of my break would have to be going to Ohio and doing fun things with my family . First, my trip started a little different than usual I had to ride with my aunt and her kids don't get me wrong it was a blast, but it felt a little longer than three hours. Second, we had Christmas at our farm house and ended up going shopping at the mall in Lima( fun fact the town where our farm is, is where Neal Armstrong grew up and their is a museum their) the shopping trip lasted five hours! Last, we went and saw the movie daddy's home. It was a funny movie that I loved.

2.The pit of my break had to be coming home to go to my cousins wedding. First, I had to pack all my things up which took forever. Second, on the car trip home we had to go through Detroit. Which I'm deathly afraid of getting shot when we go their. in conclusion the pit of my break had to be coming home from all my joys and laughs.

Dear Alicia Ferguson,

it looks like you had a more exciting break than mine. seriously you broke your bed! good thing you fixed it. your dad cheated at Christmas and that is not fair girl, but overall your vacation sounded like a lot of fun.

2) The pit of my Break was going to bed last night and knowing I had to wake up early. Then hearing my alarm just killed me.

3) Dear Jeff Deiotte,

I think that you had a Great Christmas with your family i bet you got a lot of cool stuff to play with. One of the similar things was hanging out with are family's.

1) The peak of my Christmas break being able to see my whole family. Some of the people there I have never met before, so it was cool meeting more of my family. First, my aunt had a party at her house and a lot of people came and I got to know my family even more. It had been a while since I have seen some of my cousins, Therefore, it was really nice to catch up with them and see them, because I wont see them again till next Christmas. In conclusion, the peak of my Christmas break was spending time with family.

2) The pit of my Christmas break was when i realized i only had a couple more days till we had to come back to school. First, my sleep scheduled was all over the place. Some nights i wouldn't go to bed till three in the morning and wouldn't wake up till noon. Secondly, I didn't have any of my homework done, so I had to rush and do it. Therefore, my pit of Christmas break was realizing we had to come back to school in a couple days.

3) Dear Alicia Ferguson, our breaks were kind of similar because we hung out with friends. Also hanging out with family and going shopping.

The peak of my Christmas break was hanging out with my friend, Mollee. When she got to my house she ran up the stairs and jumped on my bed and broke it.Then once we fixed it we had a movie marathon and watched all of our favorite movies. Also going shopping with friends and family.

The pit of my Christmas break was my Dad going into the basement two days before Christmas and seeing his present. Also not having any snow made it really boring.

Dear Lydia Hill,

Seems like your Christmas was somewhat similar to mine we both went shopping and hung out with our family. However you had to travel much more than me and my family. I bet seeing Daddy´s Home was very funny.

1) The peak of my Christmas break was receiving my 5 Tb external hard drive from my dad. I revived this gift almost a week late, because we ordered it online and it shipped way late. So, everyday leading up to receiving the hard drive I run out and checked the mail. The morning I received it I had woken up at 10:30 and started walking downstairs when I heard our dogs barking, so I raced to get shoes on and grab the mail from the mailman and he handed me the package which i had a feeling it was my hard drive. This is the small and less exciting peak of my break.

2) The pit of my break was when I had stayed up until 4 am and i realized I had to get up at 8 the next or I guess technically the same day. The next day, I was so tired that I couldn't even stand for more than 5 minutes before I started to fall and doze off. The reason I had to get up so early was actually so I could go to my aunts for Christmas, on Christmas day. So, while opening gifts people kept having to nudge me so I could open my gifts. This was the pit of my Christmas break.

3) Dear Emily Jed, It sounds like your Christmas break was much more exciting then mine. You seemed to have a much better time from that one paragraph. Your Christmas day was more eventful then my entire break. Glad to hear that everyone was home and that you had fun.

Sincerely, Cade (Moose)

The peak of my Christmas break was going to my grandma's for Christmas and visiting my friends and family up north, then when I came home I went to my Aunt's for a New Year's party, we ate deep fried turkey.

The pit of my break was being bored at home with absolutely nothing to do, also drinking to much pop and not feeling good.

Dear Donaven,

My presents weren't under a tree like yours and most others, they were just on a table because my grandma didn't have a tree up, but I also had fun like you did.

1.The peak of my break was going with my family to see the new Star Wars movie.In my opinion it could have been a lot better but i wont spoil it for all of you.The pit of my break was when i realized i ran out of stuff to do.I did all that i wanted that week and there was nothing else for me to do and the worst part of all was it was two days before school so i had nothing to do for fun that was the pit of my break.

Dear Joe Hayduk your break was just like mine i went to see the new Star Wars movie and it was the same way I refused to get off my game until she told me we where going to a movie and i said ok fine when we got there she told me Star Wars I was so happy.

1. The peak of my Christmas break would have to be the fact that I got to see my cousins and the rest of my family as much as I did. Not even counting our annual Christmas Eve party at our grandparents’ house, it seemed like our families grew a lot closer and spent a lot more time together during the weeks that we had off. Needless to say, there never really was a dull moment. I still got plenty of time to just sit back and relax all on my own though, and that’s always nice. To sum it up, Christmas break felt just like a really long weekend, but with a lot more people to spend it with.

2. The pit of my Christmas break would have to be the fact that some nights I’d stay up too late, and then ending up sleeping in much too early for my liking. I wanted to spend every minute of my break wisely, but I ended up squandering a lot of my time through my own poor decisions. To make matters worse, every time I slept in late, I’d end up staying up later due to having woken up later in the day, which would make it harder to put my sleep schedule back on track. On a completely unrelated note, I managed to fall asleep on time last night. Then I woke up three hours too early. I couldn’t fall asleep after that.

3. Dear Gabriel Pociecha,

Your break sounds like it was quite fun. Especially since there was pizza involved. I can really relate to you on the whole bowling situation too, in terms of bowling skill. I’m not very good either, but it’s still an engaging sport to play. Plus, the Galaga story sounds like it would’ve been a blast to see in person, I know I would’ve given you a quarter just to see how far you could get. You may not of been king pin at bowling, but at least you got number one on that arcade cabinet. As for the babysitting, it does sound like you had a bit of a bad time, doesn’t it? At least you didn’t burn the house down. All things considered, you did have quite a hard time coming up with a pit for your break, so it must have been filled with a lot more excitement than just what you’ve said yourself.

1) I would have to say that the peak of my Christmas break was Christmas eve. First of all, it was the time where I was with the side of my family I was most comfortable with. Second, we opened a few presents, ate a delicious meal, and went to church, which made everyone in a better mood. Lastly, the friendly Christmas spirit is always so strong at that one time of year. I can't think of a better day to call the "peak of my break".

2) The pit of my break, sad enough to write about, was the one day when I realized how big of a part my friends are in my typical daily routine. It was an unhappy day. To start off, both of my parents were out at work and my sister was low on sleep, so she was very cranky and mas at me. There was very little positive energy in the house. Second, I missed my friends dearly. I missed the conversations you can only have in real life, their jokes, and physically being with the people (of your age) who you love. I hadn't seen them in over a week, and it was depressing me. Lastly, being bored and alone left me plenty of time to think, which left me remembering past Christmases with people who were no longer in my life. The nostalgia was heart-breaking. All-in-all, I could definitely go without that day in my break, as it was the pit of it.

3) Dear Allisen Borowski, it appears that Christmas break for you was a special time that comes every so often, and is enjoyed when it arrives. The peak of your break reminded me of when my family and I also went out shopping during our two weeks off, to spend a bit of Christmas money. We had fun and en

1.} The peak of my Christmas break was when I stayed the night at my cousins for three days. First my mom told me they were busy then supervised me by saying I could stay the night. Then we watched movies and had fun all day but that wasn't the best part, The roads were so bad it was really hard to drive on so I couldn't be picked up that day or the following day. Lastly, we stood up until 5:00 AM for both days and had so much fun!

2.) My pit of my break is when my airsoft battery charger was broken. First, I had plugged it in for 5 hours so I could make sure it was fully charged because it takes 3 hours to charge. Then I had a friend over so we can shoot the airsoft gun and have fun. Then lastly we could not shoot it because the battery did not charge and we found out that the charger is broken, now I gotta buy a new one, Merry Christmas.

3.) Dear Dylan Wofford, your break sounds like a blast. it was similar to mine because you shot guns except that I only shot at targets, and people. Wish I could have shot squirrels with you, good luck next time!

1) The peak of my break was on Christmas day at my Grandma's. First, my Uncle Bubba made his ever-famous omelets and I had a mushroom, cheese, and bacon omelet. After that, I played billiards with my cousin and beat him, accumulating five bucks in the process. Finally, just the overall feel of everyone being home, not working, and enjoying omelets was egg-celent.

2) The pit of my break was when I couldn't read the new books in my favorite series because I "had to sleep". First off, I had gotten the rest of books in the series, and would not have had to wait because I have them all. Secondly, because it was break I didn't necessarily had to wake up to do strenuous mental activity. Finally, I had a reading light and could've read when my parents went to bed anyways (so I did).

Dear Nathan Hazel,

Our breaks our similar because we both spent our breaks hanging out with family we don't really get to see on a daily basis.

1) The peak of my Christmas break was getting to see my family and taking a break from school. First, Its been a while since I saw my brother and his girlfriend because they were gone at collage for such a long time. It brought pleasure and relief to my family once we finally got to see them. Second, I got to see my grandparents that I haven't saw in for ever also. Finally, just having all my family together for Christmas has made me so happy. In conclusion, having my family home and taking a break from school has been the best part of my break.

2) The pit of my break was sitting home with nothing to do for 4 days straight. First, none of my friends were home because they were all gone with their extended families, so I had nobody to hang out with. Second, Nobody in my house was home for the weekend and I got really lonely and bored out of my mind. Lastly, when my family got home, all they did was want to sleep because of their long weekend. In conclusion, the pit of my break was being bored out of my mind.

Dear Jillian Warner, Our breaks were very similar because i got to see family that I haven't seen in forever as well.

1. The peak of my break was getting to spend time with family I normally don't see. First, my family has many different events for the holidays. For example, cookie making and a christmas party. Second, my family likes to play games a lot it's kind of like competitions. Finally, my family just loves to spend time together. In conclusion, the peak of my break was getting to see my family I don’t see.

1. The pit of my break was not having snow on christmas. First, my family likes to go and have snowball fights it was a bummer when we couldn’t. Second, white christmases are the best. Finally, we couldn’t go sledding much this year because there wasn’t a lot of snow. In conclusion, the pit of my break was not having snow.

1. Dear Jazmine Schott, your break sounds fun. First, it’s similar to mine because we both spent time with our family. Second it’s different because you stayed home for most of it while i wish i had but was too busy to stay home. Finally, it’s similar again because we both didn’t get very much sleep. In conclusion, it sounds like you had a pretty fun break.

1. The peak of Christmas break was going to my cousin's cabin. First, it was great to be with my cousins because I haven't seen them in like three years. Second, we all bonded more through games, and talking. Furthermore, the best part about being at the cabin was going to my cousin's wedding on Jan. 2nd, it was fantastic, the best wedding that I have every been to. In conclusion, going to the cabin was the best because of all the memories made that will last a life time.

2. The pit of Christmas break was driving, to get to my cousin's cabin. First off, it took nine hours, in a cramped car. Secondly, I was trapped in between my brothers, so I had no room to stretch out and get comfortable. Lastly, counting down the hours from nine all the way to the last couple minutes, it took a really long time. In conclusion being in the car was the worst part about Christmas break.

3.Dear Samantha Chauvin, our break was similar in the aspect that we liked being with family. Also going to our grandparents for Christmas, that was a blast. Furthermore I thought it was similar because you said you had a great time with your brothers, I did too, other than in the car.

First, we went to Hot Topic and had looked at all kinds of Harry Potter shirts, Band bracelets, and anime merchandise. After we walked around window shopping at the different stores inside the mall. Lastly before the mall closed we went to V.S and had a blast getting mad about sizes being totally wrong or something being in the wrong drawer.

2) The pit of my break was that i wasn´t able to decorate a Christmas tree this year. Also, i spent my New Years Eve all by myself in my room watching Alvin and the Chipmunks while on the phone with my best friend Evency. As well as my family butting heads quite a bit about all kinds of different things throughout my whole entire break.

3) Dear Mariah Martin, It sounds like a really great Christmas. I know what it´s like to have close family in the military and aren´t always able to be home for any holidays. Also, Christmas parties are always fun. The food, the family, and the celebration is always something to remember. All this as well as getting everything you wanted for Christmas is always an awesome bonus. I´m so happy for you that you had an overall seemingly good Christmas and New Years break.

1. The peak of my Christmas break was when my family hosted a big Christmas eve party. I got to see my cousin who just got out of the marines and my brother was there who also just got out of the air force. I got to see a lot of my family that I haven't seen in a while. Christmas I got what I wanted and then I had a sleepover with on of my best friends Olivia.

2. The pit of my break is when my sister wheeled around with her wheel chair which she doesn't need and was hitting everyone in the house with it. Then I realized that school was today which made the pit get even bigger.

3. Dear Sarah Steen, my break was like yours because I got to see a lot of my family that I haven't seen in a while.

1.] The peak of my break was Christmas. First, Getting to wake up and open all of the gifts under the tree. Also, getting to spend the time with my family. Lastly, getting to eat so much food. That's why Christmas was the peak of my winter break.

2.] The pit of my break was loosing my great grandma. Having to go to a funeral over break is never fun. Also, the sadness you go through is also not very fun. So that was the horrible pit of my winter break.

3.] Dear Sarah Steen, are peaks of winter break were very similar. First, we both loved getting together with family. Also, we both thought that Christmas was the peak. Lastly, we both went to other peoples houses and visited them. That is why are peaks of winter break are very similar.

1.) The peak of my break was Christmas day. First, my family and I first got up and went and opened up all of are presents. After mass, we went to celebrate Christmas with my moms side. Then we all went back to our house to prepare for my dad's family to come over.In conclusion, I thought it was a great time spending time with close and distant family.

2.)The pit of Christmas break was most definitely the game. First, the opposing team lead us on or something in the first half leaving the game close. Second, their defensive line was destroying our offensive line. Then, our quarter back threw the pic that degenerated my hope for the win. In conclusion, the 38-0 blowout in the Michigan State vs Alabama game nearly destroyed my break.

3.)Dear Mitchell Keith, we had very similar breaks. We both loved spending time with are family and dispised the turnout of the Cotton Bowl game.

# data[].attributes.body
The peak to my break was Christmas. Waking up and seeing all the gifts under the tree always put a smile on my face. Also, spending time with my family is always fun.

The pit of my break was losing $10 dollars to my dad. Even though i wanted Alabama i still bet for Michigan State because i thought they had it. But the final score was the total opposite of what i believed was going to happen. Glad that Bama won though!

Dear Nathan Hazel, are break was similar because we both enjoyed spending time with our families.

1.) My peak of my break was being able to deer and squirrel hunt with my dad and brother. My dad and I went hunting everyday that we could but sadly we didn't get a neither deer for either of us. But my brother and me got six squirrels in total over the break wick made some pretty good stew.

2.) My pit was having to go back to school. Break felt so short. But that was probably just because I had so much fun. It was great.

3.) Dear Dylan Mathews, your break was like mine because we both were happy to spend time with our families.

(1) The peak of my break was seeing my family that I don't see very often. I go to my grandmas and see my family that i usually do on Christmas day, Then i go to my aunts house and see my family that I don't usually see. Lastly, I got to just relax and do nothing.

(2) The pit of my break was when i was sick on Christmas and realizing that there was school. I was sick on Christmas Eve and then I was on Christmas day too. Then I had to get all of my homework done. Lastly i had to get up really early this morning and it stunk.

(3) Dear Katie Brennan, your break was similar to mine because our peak was to spend time with family and we were both upset when we realized that we had school.

1) The peak of my break was going to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens. First, my parents wanted to surprise me with it, so they said that we were going to a party hosted by my mom's boss. However, it ended up back firing on them because I was on my fourth straight hour of Star Wars: Battlefront and I did not want to leave my room. Consequently, my dad finally convinced me that there will be girls (and food) at the party. I was overwhelmed with a feeling of shock and awe when we pulled into the theater parking lot. So in conclusion

# data[].attributes.body
1.) The peak of my break was probably hanging out with my cousins on Christmas and spending time with them because I always enjoy spending time with them and playing pranks, watching football/Christmas movies, and getting FAT!

2.)The pit of my break was the last two words of my peak. (I will not copy my own writing because that would be plagiarism.)

3.)Dear Noah Runnals I see your break seemed to go quite well very similar to mine, but i also happen to know that some of those new games you got for XBOX ended up stolen by somebody, so your peak is pretty poor. Lastly I can't believe your pit because you seem to be up for School right now?

The peak of my break was getting to spend Christmas day with my family. First, that is the first Christmas that my entire family has been together in over 5 years. Also, my baby cousin Tyler was born just a few days before Christmas. Finally, this brought our family closer together for the holidays.

The pit of my break was being sick the day before we had to go back to school. First, it made it nearly impossible to enjoy my last day of freedom. Also, I had a little homework left and it made me not lethargic and I did not want to do it. Finally, nobody likes to be sick and this made the notion of going back to school that much worse.

Dear Mark Donnellon, our breaks were very similar. First, we both spent Christmas with our families. Also, we both put off our homework until the last day. Lastly, we both did not want to go back to school and were not ready to lose the freedom the break had provided.

# data[].attributes.body
The peak of my break was New Years day. First, my family met with my oldest brother, who doesn't live near us, and we went to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens in imax. Then, we went back to there house and had a small party. Fiunaly, we exchanged gifts and everyone got pretty much what they wanted. In conclusion, the peak of my break was seeing my brother after a long time.

The pit of my break was the Sunday before school. First, I forgot what homework had already done, and what I still needed to get done (most of it still needed to get done). Second, I took a ton of my things out of my backpack so I had to get all of it ready for the next day. Then, after all of that is done and figured out I had to finish the homework I neglected to do in the fifteen other days I had off. In conclusion, the pit of break was the day before we came back to school.

The peak of my winter break was the party at my friend’s house. This party was just after Christmas with all my closest friends where we started off just playing simple board games. Then, after listening to a long talk about the new Star Wars movie we got to watch all the little children duel it out with toy lightsabers around the house, trying to avoid the Griswald family sized christmas tree. Finally, all the older kids were able to find the TV in the mass chaos of kids flooding to the playroom around midnight to catch a rerun of SNL, while the parents planned out the get togethers for the upcoming week. In conclusion, this was my favorite out of many parties I attended over break with my best friends, also known as my peak of the break.

The pit of my break was the very last day and knowing that the fun was about the end. First, the boredom of not being able to have friends over to hang out because we have to get ready for school the next day. Next, I had to listen to my favorite football team lose to a team they whooped at the beginning of the season. Finally, I stayed home and did nothing the whole day, and if there is nothing I hate more then wasting the day away like I did. All in all, it was a really fun break other than the last day knowing I had to go back to school.

Dear Meghan Delor, your winter break sounded really fun filled. It sounds similar to mine because your Christmas party you said you had tons of fun at your party like I had ton of fun at my craziness of a party. It is so cool that you got to see your cousin that now live in New York, I wish her the best on her career. I am glad I got to see a connection between our breaks and that I did not do something that no one had done besides parties on new year's eve.

1) The Peak of my break was Christmas. First, it was the peak because some of my family I haven't seen in a while was there too. Also, I got a few new Xbox games that I love to play when I have homework. The best part yet was getting a German Shepard puppy. In conclusion, Christmas was definitely my peak.

2) The pit was the Sunday before school. First, I didn't finish any of my homework. Also I didn't wake up the next day for school. I also had a good amount of chores to conquer. In conclusion, the third of January wasn't fun.

3) Dear $tephen, peak was similar to my, like spending time with family. Also, I got video games too for Christmas. Although you still have most of your games, one of mine is gone, which stinks. In conclusion , we had similar peaks.

P.S. Stephen doesn't have a cash money sign.

1 The peak of break was going hunting with some of my family. first i was deer hunting then i switched and shot some squirrels. I helped get my cousin his first deer and i also visited my grandma and grandpa.

2 The pit of my break was coming home first we had to say goodbye then we had to clean out our hunting camp and pack our truck and we still had a 4 hour car ride home .

3 dear Nick Behem your break sounded like fun it wasn't exactly like mine but we both did watch that game it was terrible.

1.) The peak of my break was spending time with my family. They never are home, they all are either at work or home in bed sleeping so I really loved see them. I especially loved spending time with my dad before he had to leave. He is going to Canada to run the KUKA company over there but hopefully not for much longer. My mom, sister and I went and seen "sisters" it was a really funny movie, and then we went out to eat at "Chans Buffet." I got to sleep in a lot and watch all the new movies I got for Christmas. I am very grateful for all that I got on Christmas.

2.) The pit of my break was when I realized school was today when I actually had to go to bed at a reasonable time not like 3 in the morning. When my alarm clock went off this morning I slept through it my mom had to wake me up at 6:30. Its a good thing my mom drives me to school everyday or else I would have missed the bus.

3.) Dear Meghan Delor, your break sounded okay. It was similar to mine because I spend Christmas with out my grandma also.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The peak of my break was first seeing my family. The Saturday right after break was my mom's side of the family. I love going to my grandma's for it because we have a ton of fun. Then Christmas Eve and Christmas day we go to my aunt's for my dad's side and it's great. Lastly i got to hang out with my friends at the mall and see a movie.

2. The pit of my break was when I realized school was today and I got sick New Years day. The first thing I did when I realized today was school I rolled my eyes and realized I had homework to do. Then today when I woke up I did not want to come here. Lastly here I am, at school, writing this.

3. Dear Karly Jones, your break sounds fun. It was similar to mine because we both spent a lot of time with our families.

1.)The peak of my break was getting a full stereo set for Christmas and being able to go see a movie with my family.We went and seen "Daddy's Home",it was very funny. Also, I enjoyed hanging out with my dad.My dad and I went hunting,I got a big doe.When my dad and I got home, he let me skin the doe myself.After I went inside and spent time with my little brother,he was extremely crabby. On New Years my step-dad let me shoot the 22-50 for our celebration of the new year.

2.)The pit of my break was not being able to ride my snowmobile or go snowboarding.I was hoping that it would snow but I guess i can wait until this weekend.During break I had to help out with my little brother,Cole, by giving him a bath, changing his diaper,and feeding him.Feeding him wasn't all that bad he falls asleep every time.So, it always works out. Most of the time.

The peak of my break was spending time with all of my family and friends. First, on Christmas eve we had a party with my family and it was tons of fun. My cousin Jillian is an actor and so a few months ago she moved to New York to make a career out of it, so she came home to visit for a few days. Lastly, opening presents on Christmas Day, I got a new phone, shoes and other stuff. I'm extremely grateful for the things I got. In conclusion, the peak of my break was family, friends, and presents.

The pit of my break was having to spend Christmas eve and day, without my Nana. She passed last Christmas eve and the holidays were not the same without her. Another sad part of my break is that there was no snow on Christmas... Lastly, the worst part of my break was coming here today.

Dear Emily Gill, your break sounds fun. It was similar to my break because we both spent time with family and we both dreaded coming to school today. I honestly like cleaning, it makes me feel organized and neat, so that sounds fun. You seemed to really enjoy your break. :)

(1) The peak of my break was the amazing Christmas time I had. In fact, the best part about that day was hanging out with my family who some of which I haven't seen in a long time. Also, I got some pretty good gifts this year like some star wars shirts, the star wars trilogy books, and a couple of games. Furthermore, I had no worries or stress about homework so I wasn't freaking out that something wasn't getting done fast enough. In conclusion the best part of my break was hanging out with the people I care about and getting amazing gifts.

(2) The pit of my break was the day's getting closer by to the return of school. For example, I hate the feeling of homework when i'm at school and want to do other things when i'm home like go to the movies and stuff. Also I dislike having projects that are due over the weekend or break because it takes my free time away. Furthermore, when packets are issued, they usually are due during the next two days not enabling one to complete it unless they want to go for it and do it all in one day which takes a lot of time away. In conclusion this was the pit of my break.

(3) Dear Ethan Bartee, your break sounds pretty decent. In fact, it was similar to mine because I got a video game that i wanted to. Also, getting a game that you wanted normally but you may not have been able to get sounds really cool. Furthermore it really sounds like the Spartans didn't put in the effort they needed in that game. In conclusion it seems like we both had a great Christmas.

The peak of my break was celebrating my birthday on January 2nd. I got a couple presents on my birthday. My first present was from my aunt and uncle and it was a guitar. My second present was from my mom and she got me a Shawn Mendes CD.

The pit of my break was doing homework all during break. Even though I spent the whole break doing homework I still didn't finish all of my homework. So my break was pretty boring expect for my birthday. I think my birthday was the best birthday I have ever had in a long time.

Dear , Ashley Taylor your break sounded really fun and busy. First, I think that its cool that you got to spend Christmas with your family. Your break is different from mine because you didn't celebrate a birthday. In conclusion you seemed to really enjoy your break.

# data[].attributes.body
1] The peak of my break was being around family and friends, but no worries of getting busy homework and projects. Most of break was super amazing like Christmas and Christmas Eve, but i didnt like New years that much. Id say new years eve to new years morning was pretty boring until i got home and hung out with my dad. I texted my cousin to come over she couldnt because she was already at a friends house for a few days. Then, just Saturday my cousin and i had to babysit two girls,they were sisters so they fought the whole time. We had to watch them from 10pm-4am. So after they left, with my cousin I slept from 5am-2pm..That means i couldnt sleep last night sdd

at nd only got 4 hours of sleep for school today.

2] The pit of my break was that break didnt feel long enough and my family didnt really go anywhere. We drove two hours away on Christmas to see my moms side of the family, thats it.

3] Dear Ayaka Hasebe, your break sounds like it was the best. It was different from mine because I didnt leave Michigan, yet luckily you went to Florida. Some things that sound interesting are seeing wild animals like manatees.

Third, we opened gifts and spent the rest of the day playing games. In conclusion, Christmas ,family,and friends was the peak of my break.(2) The pit of my break was probably Sunday the 3rd. First, it was the worst because I had to do a bunch of cleaning. Second, I had to do some homework that needed to be done.

(1)There were many good things about my break I got a new hoodie, new socks, but the best part of my break you could even call it the peak, is when i opened the present containing my new boots. At first, we watched my two nephews open there presents from Santa. Then, my brother Kyle started handing out presents, and there they were in a red wrapping paper my beautiful new comfy boots. The next thing I did was put them on while i was still in my pajamas and go play in the snow, while there was no snow i used my imagination. That is way I consider getting my new boots my peak.

(2) The pit over my break is fairly depressing, you see I woke up one day after Christmas and went into the kitchen to find that I had ran out of pizza rolls. This tragedy struck my family bitterly we had ranch and everything , but the population of these delicious creatures was scarce. It seemed to turn into a mad house, everyone running around eating everything and anything trying to slay the fierce craving for the magical goodness. No one was successful. That is why my pit is so depressing.

(3) Dear Mr. Stone

My break was fairly different compared to yours. You see while were being athletic at your weight lifting meet I was at home on the couch doing nothing. I was in TV land while you were working out. Your pit sounded very painful it seems you need to be more careful.

Sincerely, your friend the pizza roll man.

The peak of my break would be getting NBA 2K16 for Christmas. First, I opened my present. Second, I was so excited, I hugged my parents. Finally, I had a blast playing it. In Conclusion, NBA 2K16 was my favorite gift.

The pit of my break was the Michigan State Spartans losing to the Alabama Crimson Tide. First, the Spartan's offense didn't produce any points. Second, Conner Cook was sacked way too many times. Third, the Spartans got blown out in the second half. In Conclusion, the fact that the Spartans didn't score any points was very disappointing.

Dear Jillian, your break sounds very exciting. It sounds like you had a great time with your family. I had a great time with my family too

1.The peak of my break was spending time with my family. The first couple of days were fun because my mom made break fast and when Christmas came she made us cinnamon rolls which were delicious. I also got to sleep in most days which I always enjoy on breaks. Lastly was the present opening which is exciting to see what I got and others get. In conclusion the peak of my break was spending time with family, sleeping in, and opening presents.

2. The pit of my break was going back to school. Mostly because I have to get up at 5:30 every mourning until the weekend at least. And it is tiring acting like a zombie throughout the week days. I didn't ever want the break to end so I suppose I just have to wait until mid winter break which i'm looking forward to.

Josh Fisher,

Your break sounds amazing! It was similar to mine because I also spent time with my family. We all had a big dinner and the next day went to church as well. I have three dogs of my own that I got to spend time with as well.

The peak of my break would probably have to be New years eve. At first I was just sitting at home watching tv shows when my friend texted me and asked if I wanted to come to his party. One hour later at 10 O'clock at night I went to his house and played card games and hung out until midnight. After the ball dropped we all hung out and stayed up until 7:30 that morning. That is why New years eve and day was the peak of my break.

The pit of my break was my weight lifting meet the Saturday after we got out. At first I was doing good and I was taking first in all my lifts. But then we got to dead lift and all the kids were lifting more and more weight. When I went up to lift my second dead lift I got down and pulled as hard as I could and pulled both of my hamstrings. That is why it is the pit of my break.

Dear Angu,

Your break in Florida sounds awesome. First, I think that it is cool that you got to see Alligators and Dolphins. Second, it is pretty cool that you got to go some place that it was warm during Christmas. lastly it is cool that you got to spend all of Christmas with your family. I hope you had a great christmas break.

1. The peak of my break was Christmas day. Christmas was fun spending time with my family and eating great food. My grandma made the best ham that took all day to cook. Christmas morning I found out I got a ps4 and my very own varsity jacket. As you can see, I had a good time over break.

2. The pit of my break was on New Years Eve. Michigan State was playing Alabama in the Cotton Bowl. It was the College Football Playoff semi finals. Alabama was ranked second in the country and State was third. State lost in a blowout 38-0. As you can see, it was a tough loss and definitely not one of my best parts of break.

3. Dear Brent, your break sounds boring. I´m a huge Star Wars fan but not I can´t even go a whole day of watching every movie. Your break was similar to mine in a way. I had trouble getting to sleep too most nights. The new Star Wars movie was the best and worst movie of them all. All in all, your breaking sounded boring and fun at the same time.

The peak of my break happened right after Christmas . I got to see my cousins on the 27th . They ,Matthew ,Meghan ,Marissa , all live in Saginaw so i don't get to see them often. We all exchanged gifts and partied in my grandmothers basement. This was a great time because they surprised us by coming into town early.

The pit of my break happened on Wednesday and Sunday. I missed weight for my 112 lbs weight class on Wednesday , I weighed 112.8. and had to wrestle up to 119 . I did not win a single match . Then I missed my class again on Sunday but this time I was given an extra 2 lbs and still missed 114, I weighed 114.3 and again i wrestled up but this time i went to 121 lbs . I still did not win any matches . this week i am on weight and have made it under 114.

Dylan Matthews

I totally agree with the whole going back to school thing . I also got to see family that I don't normally see and am happy that you got to eat good food ....... I also was excited for black-ops 3 but spent most of my time wrestling .

1. The peak of my break was going to see my family. First, I only get to see my family about twice a year. Next, my grandma makes really good food. Thirdly, I got to meet my 10 month old cousin. In conclusion, my peak was spending time with family.

2. The pit of my break would have to be the break ending. First, I messed up my sleeping schedule, so now i have to try and fix it. Next, now i don't get to stay up late anymore. Lastly, I don't get to enjoy the snow as much. In conclusion, break should of never ended.

3. Dear, Shane Roth

1. The peak of my break was spending time with my family for Christmas. I got to spend time with my family at home, in Canada, and in Clinton Township. It was great to see everyone. I love seeing my family especially if i haven't seen them in a while. I like getting presents, but not as much as I like spending time with my family.

2. The pit of my break was that my grandma in Clinton Township was has been sick since Thanksgiving. I am not really sure if she is getting better. I hope she is because I wouldn't want her to be sick to long. Also my grandma is Canada has been sick for a while. Unfortunately she is getting worse. The last time before I saw her for Christmas she looked bad, but now she looks even worse.

3. Dear Katie Brennan, your break sounds great. It is similar to mine because we both likes spending time with our family. It sounds like you had lots of fun spending time with both sides of your family. It's also great that you got to spend time with your friends also during your break. In conclusion I hope that you always enjoy spending time with your family for holidays, but also not just for holidays...always.

2) The pit of my Christmas break was cheer practice and stressing over cheer and the fact we have to come back to school so soon and having to wake up at 6:00 which was very rough.

The peak of my break was spending time with my family. First, I went to a Christmas party with my mom’s side of the family and i got to see all my second cousins which was nice. Second, I seen my close family on Christmas day and we had a good time as we always do laughing playing games and just enjoying each others company. Lastly,I seen some of my close family on New Years Eve, but they didn't stay long nobody really stayed up to watch the ball drop besides me. In conclusion, my break was filled with family fun and lots  of sleep.

The pit of my break was realizing that we had to go back to school. First, Its gonna be hard getting back into my old sleeping habit and not staying up until 9 am and sleeping until noon. Second, the stress I have during school. When I get stressed I get irritated and worked up, and when I get worked up the occasional Panic attack hits and that is no fun. Lastly, homework, homework is the most stressful thing especially if it's not welled explained. In conclusion, the break was great until realizing you have to go rejoin reality.

Dear Kaleb Keidel, our breaks were very similar. I also visited family that I don't see often and my sleeping schedule was messed up too. It went from going to bed at 6 am and sleeping in til noon to going to bed at 11 pm and getting up at 5am.

1. The peak of my break was going to Florida.First,I swam in the pool everyday.Second,I could see some wild animals like manatee and dolphins. Third, Florida was so nice weather. In conclusion, the peak of my break was going to Florida.

2. The pit of my break was riding a car long time to get to Florida.First, it took like all day to get there. Second,a car was not big enough so it's like squishy.Third,I just slept during car ride. In conclusion, the pit of my break was riding a car long time.

3.Dear Ashley Taylor

your break sounds like that you spent with your family a lot. It was similar from my break because I spent with my HOST family a lot. That was my first New Year's Eve and New Year that I did't spend with my Japaneses family though.Anyways you had good time with your family and that sounds so nice!

1- The peak of my break was going to my grandma's house and eating Christmas dinner. My first reason is because i love going to her house and the smells from the kitchen surround you and not even the pile of presents an get your mind off the mouth watering food not even 10 feet away from you. My second reason is the fact that it's food and who doesn't love food?? The turkey, so warm and juicy, the homemade mashed potatoes with melting butter dripping on your plate. All of these are defiantly the peak of my break.

2- The pit of my break was supposed to have been my peak but when i got to my brother's house in Saginaw, unpacked in my room and went to go on my phone... no service. I went into the living room and said " Why didn't you tell me you guys did not get service here?!?!" because you would not of come they said. So there I was no service , no friends where I was and maybe worst of all a 6 year old brother who had nothing else to do but bug me. In conclusion Saginaw was the what seemed endless pit of my break.

3- Dear Tyler Stone , your break sounds both exciting and painful. It was so much different because new years eve I stayed home and just chilled with my family and i didn't do anything that has to do with excercise over break.

(1) The peak of my holiday break would most definitely be New Years Eve and New Years Day. This being because I was invited to a friend’s house along with three other people. We had a great time. We played pool, Halo, Call of Duty, Flashlight Tag (I’m not getting into details), Magic and Cards Against Humanity. We dined on pizza and pop. In the morning, we enjoyed pancakes, sausage, pork, and orange juice.

(2) The pit of my holiday break was yesterday with the realization that there was school the next day. The day was quite busy, so I didn’t have time to do anything that I enjoyed. I ended up going to bed late because of how busy we were. Also, because of us being busy, I was never able to relax before I came back. Not to mention I was in a car most of the day.

(3) Dear Jarrett Childers, your break sounds like it was well spent. Also, it seems your electronics got good use. It was similar to mine because the both of us seemed to destroy our sleep schedules. Although, there was never a time over break when I had to wake up early. (excluding church) I’ve never been a big fan of Star Wars, but binge watching a TV show or movie is definitely something I can relate to. Your break seemed fun, sir.

Peak

My break surprisingly did have a peak, that being drawing faces well for the first time. Finally being able to draw faces on this app I have called Picsart is a big accomplishment of mine. Drawing faces had always been a challenge for me, so finally being able to do it was definitely a plus. Being able to draw something I’d been working hard at was so great and self-rewarding.

Pit

There were many pits to my break but the main one would have to be missing my friends. A few had talked to me over break, but a lot of the ones I’m closer with didn’t even make an attempt to come into contact with me. While I had tried to talk to them, the app I use has the capability of telling me if they read it or not and said friends had just read my messages and didn’t even respond. I’m not angry, I guess I’m just disappointed because they were the ones that I’m closest to and talking to them is always a highlight to my day. To reiterate, my main pit was my friends not even trying to come into contact with me.

Response
Dear Sarah Hackett, your break sounds similar to mine in where you said you watched the movie, Star Wars because I had went to the Krafft 8 theater in Port Huron on New Years day. I in my honest opinion thought that the movie was phenomenal, I don’t know about you but I hope you had enjoyed it as well.

1.) The peak of my break would be Christmas. Firstly, as soon as I woke up I went and made breakfast for everyone. Next, I woke up my brother and we waited for my parents to wake up. Finally, we were all up and ready to open up the presents. Being with my family made the whole day a great day. In conclusion, the peak of my break was Christmas.

2.) The pit of break would be waking up early and getting ready to come to school today. Firstly, I had to set two alarms since I wasn't used to waking up so early. Next, I wasn't even hungry so I only ate a banana for breakfast and now I'm super hungry. Finally, I never knew it was snowing so I wore my slides, and then my ride came in the driveway and that's when I found out snow was covering the ground. I had no time to change shoes so I was forced to wear them, and now my toes are very cold. In conclusion, the pit of my break was this morning.

3.) Dear Jacob Kandt, your pit sounds very saddening and I feel bad for you. It was quite different from mine because I just didn't want to go to school, but you had several things going on. For example, you went on a diet, which is a good thing, but then you felt sick which isn't a good thing. Then you couldn't fall asleep, which I can relate to, I didn't go to bed til one last night and then had to wake up at five. All in all, are pits had both similarities and differences.

The pit of my break would be waking up early today. Firstly, over break i would sleep in everyday and it felt great. Also, over break I could stay up super late and not regret it.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The peak of my break would have to be Christmas Eve. First, all of my cousins get together and we all open our gifts for each other. Secondly, every Christmas we either stay the night at my house or at my cousins and we stayed at their house this year. Lastly, we all play card games before we go to sleep. In conclusion, the peak of my break was Christmas Eve.

2. The pit of my break was the last couple days I had left before school. First off, I disliked these days because they were full of destruction. Secondly, I disliked these days because school was only a matter of days away. Lastly, I hated these days because I knew one teacher would want me to write about what happened over my break... In conclusion, the pit of my break were the days after New Years.

3. Dear Gina Messina, your break sounds like a blast. It was similar to mine because you also hated the last day before school got hyped up again. Also, I went out and shredded the slopes like you did. Lastly, our breaks were similar cause we spent most of our time with the fam. In conclusion, your break sounds pretty sick and you probably had fun.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The peak of my break would have to be hanging out with my family and friends. I love being around them and how we all get along. We all played board games and opened presents and it was very fun.

2. The pit of my break was that we had to make this giant woodshed. Building it wasn't bad, but it was so cold and we were out there for hours everyday. One day, my fingers got so cold I thought I might have had frostbit.

3.Dear Ali Mac, Well first, you're break sounded awesome! Second is I got to see you on Christmas and that was sweet, especially because I didn't break any bones. Last is that I didn't really want to do my homework either. I pushed it off until like 10:00 last night, and that rpobably wasn't good.

# data[].attributes.body
1) The peak of my break was definitely Christmas and new years. During Christmas I got to go to my moms for Christmas eve and spend it with her and my sisters. Then on Christmas day I got to go to my dads and spend Christmas day with him and my sisters. Also for new years I went to my friend Daijahs and we played games, made cookies, hung out with people and was really fun.

2) The pit of my break were the days I wasn't doing anything. For example just sitting around my house yelling at my sisters for jumping on the couch. Also going to practice over break was a little boring and not wanted for my Christmas break.

3) Dear Caitlin Houde, your break sounds like you had lots of fun hanging out with your family and friends. It is similar to mine because I hung out with my family and friends too. Also I thought it was very interesting that you had only celebrated New Years once before. I am glad you had fun and got to spend quality time with you friends and family

# data[].attributes.body
1. The peak of my break was being able to see my family. First, usually i don't get to see my cousins from my moms side. Also I got to spend some time with my brother,which is a hard thing to do. Lastly, it was a calm year at all five houses that I had to go to.In conclusion, seeing my family would have to be the peak.

2. The pit of my break would have to be the cutting wood to heat the house. First, it was cold the days that we did it. Also, our trailer broke so we had to crawl in the back of the truck to load the wood. Finally, it was countless hours in the woods, where there was nothing to do. In conclusion cutting wood would be the pit of my break.

3.Dear Kaylee Long, your break sounded fun. Our breaks were similar, because we both enjoyed seeing our families.Also, our families both exchanged gifts, Finally, it sounded like you had a lot of fun, not including the prank that was pulled on you. Overall it seemed like you had a blast like me.

# data[].attributes.body
1: The peak of my break was probably sleeping or going ice skating. Over the break, I went ice skating at Campus Martius in Detroit with two of my friends. It was significantly cold to be honest. I mean I would have enjoyed sleeping more, but ice skating was pretty fun considering they both fell a lot. Over all, the peak of my break was ice skating with my clumsy friends.

2: The pit of my break was most likely trying to take down the Christmas tree. I disliked taking down the tree because it was a rather long, tedious task. I would have preferred sleeping for that time instead of picking up an ornament, and placing it in a box. Trying to take the lights off the tree was even worse. Everything got tangled up with each other. It was very annoying. Overall, I disliked trying to take down a Christmas tree that I really did not feel like putting up in the first place.

3: Dear Jessica Greene, your break sounds more productive than mine. While mine consisted of mainly sleeping and watching Netflix, you saw your cousins and brother. Seeing your cousins sounded interesting since you said you had not seen them in a while.

1. The peak of my break was Christmas Eve. First of all I got to go to my grandma's house and eat a bunch of food. Secondly I got to see my family that I don't usually see. Finally we got to exchange presents and just have an all over good time. In conclusion Christmas Eve was the best part of my break.

2.The pit of my break was the day after Christmas. First of all all I did was sit at home. Secondly all my friends were out doing things while I was at home. Finally my little sister annoyed me all day and I couldn't get away. In conclusion the day after Christmas was the worst part of my break.

3.Dear Karissa Scott, your break sounds fun. Your break was similar to mine because I also seen my family I don't see that often. It sounded terrible when you had to cut wood and even worse your trailer broke. I was shocked when you said you go to five houses for Christmas. In conclusion your break sounded fun.

# data[].attributes.body
1) The peak of my break had to be able to see my grandma again. I haven't seen her in about three month and I was really looking forward to spending time with her and her new horse.

2) The pit of my winter break was most likely seeing my one cosine. Every since she picked up showing horses last summer me and her haven't been getting along.One reason is simply the fact that she doesn't do the classes I do and still thinks she's better. Second reason is we both train and work our horses differently. Adding this all up seeing her was the pit of vacation.

3) Dear Karissa Scott, you're break's peak sounds somewhat similar to mine. It's similar to mine for the fact that you don't get to see your mom's side often and neither do I. Also you wanted to see family and i did too, only i was looking more forward to seeing one certain person. All in all hope you're break was good.

Peak

My break was amazing, and really fun, filled with many memorable moments. If I had to pick one, I feel that the peak of my break would have to be going to a bowling alley with my family and a lot of friends. First, we all started bowling. It was fun, although I was horrible at it, getting a score of 41, which is very bad. I only played the one game, for obvious reasons. Next, I ate some delicious pizza, and talked with my friends about nerdy video games and card games. Then, I grabbed a few dollars and went straight to the arcade. I went to my favorite machine, and inserted my first quarter. The game was none other than the classic space-shooter known as Galaga. Soon enough my friends began crowding me and watching me play. I was doing well, so they gave me some of their quarters so I could continue playing and increase my score. Even other kids I didn't know began giving me quarters. Eventually I had to stop, but only because I had to leave. Otherwise, I would've continued. However, I certainly left my mark on that machine, making it to level 101 with a high score of 716,620, essentially doubling the previous high-score. It might not seem like much, but entering my initials into the machine was certainly satisfying. In conclusion, one of the peaks of my break would have to be going bowling with my friends, in which I conquered the arcade.

Pit

There weren't many times in my break where I felt that it was a pit, but if I had to pick one, I would have to pick babysitting my younger cousins. It wasn't that bad, and I am getting rewarded for it, yet it wasn't exactly what I would call a fun time. First, my brother and I got to the house, in which our uncle explained to us some simple things such as how to work the phone, letting the dogs out, etc. Next, they left, and we were set with the task of watching and playing with our cousins for around 6 or 7 hours. These cousins were Drake, an eight-year-old boy, and Dakota, a four-year-old girl. For what seemed like days I had to play tag, pirates, and doctors with Dakota, although eventually things settled down. Later in the day, we were all sitting on the couch and watching Looney Tunes and Counting Cars. It didn't take much longer for our uncle and aunt to get home. My brother and I talked with our uncle for a while before he drove us home, and that was the end of it. In conclusion, although it wasn't horrible, the pit of the break would have to be looking after my cousins for most of the day.

Response to a Peer (Melanie G.)

Dear Melanie Griffin, I think your break sounded nice, but maybe a little laid-back. But hey, there is nothing wrong with that at all, in my opinion! Anyways, first I shall respond to your peak. I'm slightly jealous of your peak, to be completely honest. I enjoy art and drawing as well, although I'm not the best when it comes to faces. That is why I'm slightly jealous of that. I agree that it is definitely a rewarding thing to think about. Next, I agree that your pit certainly isn't good, and I understand how you feel. However, there is the possibility that these friends were busy, which could be true considering Christmas and New Years were a part of the break. Besides, it is nice sometimes to just spend time with family around the holidays. In conclusion, from what you stated, your break sounded somewhat uneventful, yet still nice and relaxing, which is certainly acceptable.

The peak of my break would have to be going up to my cabin and skiing. First of all, the first couple of days there wasn't a lot of snow on the mountain. Also, over the time period it snowed and a lot more runs became open. Finally, Skiing up north with my family would have to be the peak of my break.

The pit of my break is on Sunday when I had to come home from up north. First, all day was boring because I had to sit in a car and do my homework. I had a lot of homework to do so it made it kind of boring. Also, the car ride is like four hours long and it is horrible to drive with my family. In conclusion, the pit of my break was on Sunday when we had to come home.

Dear Justina Kudera, your pit of break is kind of like mine because you had homework and so did I. Also, I didn't like the feeling of thinking about school again. Also you shredded on skiis like me. In conclusion, our breaks were really similar because we did mostly the same things.

1. The peak of my break would be Christmas at my aunt's. First off, my aunt is a really good cook and has plates of food out constantly. Also, it was nice to see my relatives I don't see any other day of the year. In addition, it was awesome to make so much easy money. In conclusion, Christmas at my aunt's was the best because of food, family, and money.

2. The pit of my break was the night before I came back to school. Firstly, I had to quickly finish all the homework I should have done a week ago. Secondly, the realization that I couldn't stay home and lay around was a very unpleasant thought that lingered in my mind throughout the day. Thirdly, I had become accustomed to sleeping in early and I wasn't looking forward to getting up at five. Finally, I was at my lowest the day before going back to school because I shouldn't be getting up when I usually go to bed!

3. Dear Jared McCormick,

your break sounds like it was a lot fun. It sounds somewhat like mine in the fact that I also was excited for Black Ops 3. I bet seeing your brother was a happy moment. I totally relate with your pit, I dreaded the return of school. Overall it sounds like you had a fun and eventful break.

1.

The peak of my Christmas break was the fact that I was barely home and alone. Most of the time my grandma is working so it was nice to not spend my break completely alone. I really enjoyed hanging around Austen's family, probably because I enjoy his mother more than him. In all honesty, I can't really pick out which part was my favorite, I really enjoyed myself.

2. The pit of my break was that I got no sleep. I was up almost all night every night and waking up around nine o'clock in the morning. I struggle to sleep in most of the time mostly because I just got a belly button piercing and it was extremely painful to. Also, the rain was unbelievably depressing on Christmas.

3. Dear Amber Polzin,

Your break seems very much like mine. My whole family came over on Christmas Eve. There was about 100 people inside my house and they didn't leave until later that night. I can also relate to the cousins that cannot function without they're electronics, because I am that person only to avoid how obnoxious my family is and I've been on the same level on Candy Crush for the past two weeks. Also, all of the tiny children came barging in my room constantly, I understand your frustrations.

The peak of my break was spending Christmas with my family, also I got to see everyone I don't get to see very often. Like seeing my grandma who is 83 this year. I also got to see my little brother and sister open the gifts that i got them this year. And I got to hand out the gifts this year which to most is not that special but in my family it is a very big deal. Then when everyone was done with gifts we all sat and watched ''The Christmas Story '', as a family.

2

The pit of my break had to been when my mom got rushed to the hospital for chest pain and she had to stay at the hospital for two nights and us kids where not allowed to see her till 12 the next night. The other thing has to be the fact that I hurt my neck and I have a Cast for just a couple days.

Dear, Justin Vincent

It sound like you had a good break, even with you having to do all the work in the cold. And the fudge sounds really good in the way you explained it.

1. The peak of my break would have to be spending Christmas with my grandma. Every Christmas she is the one who holds our family together with everything we do at the party and what we eat. It was a blessing and a joy to have her for another Christmas. We didn't think she would make it to Christmas because she was recently diagnosed with cancer. I was so overjoyed that I could spend yet another Christmas with my Grandma.

2. The pit of my break had to be when I had to put a show halter on my steer SImba. He doesn't really like to have things placed upon his head, so he threw a fit. He bucked up and down and drug me around the barn and slammed my dad and I around. It was frustrating working with an 800 pound animal who had a temper. Putting a show halter on my Steer was definitely the pit of my break.

3. Dear Rachel Keuning,

You break sounds very interesting. It was similar to my break because we both enjoyed Christmas with our families. Your problem with you TKAM sounds very boring and I hope you can be able to finish the book. Also, I wasn't disappointed with my presents either because i picked mine out too. Also, we had to clean our house to but that's just because all my mother does is make us clean. In conclusion, I am glad you christmas break was somewht excting.

1) The peak of my break was being able to spend time with my friends and family. First, I got to see family members that I only get to see a couple of times a year. Second, I was able to visit friends on more than just weekends. Lastly, I was able to pay more attention to my friends and family because I didn’t have as much homework to worry about. All in all, the peak of my break was having the ability to spend quality time with friends and family over the holidays.

2) The pit of my break would have to be the day that I went to work with my dad. First of all, it was really cold outside so I couldn’t feel my fingers or toes. Secondly, my brother and I had to screw up a piece of insulation in a crawl space along one of the sides of a house which made my arms itch really bad because of the fiber glass in the insulation. Lastly, I wasn’t able to use my phone that day because I had to constantly do random stuff while I was at work. In conclusion, the pit of my break would be when I went to work with my dad.

3) Dear Dylan Matthews, your break sounded fun. First, It was similar to mine because we both were able to visit family that we only see on special occasions. Secondly, your break sounded like it was exciting because of the extra income and the ability to see your family. Lastly I can relate to the feeling of distress during the last few days of break. All in all, it sounds like your break was very family orientated and fun.

3. Dear Claire Rutkofske, your break was both similar and different from mine. My great grandma is 98 and it felt good to spend Christmas with her too. On the other hand, our pits are different. Mine is about yesterday being our last day of break and yours is about your cow. In conclusion, our breaks were similar and different.

1. The peak of my break was being with my family during Christmas. First, my family and I drive to Grand Ledge to visit my dad's side of the family for a few hours. Next, we drive down to my other grandma's house to visit my mom's side of the family. Lastly, after opening gifts at my grandma's its really late so we drive home and stay up for a little while before going to bed.

2. The pit of my break was New Years. First off, my parents left to go up north with some family the day before New Years eve. Second, they left me home with my brother, my sister, and my sister's boyfriend. Lastly, I wasn't allowed to have any friends over, so I was mostly stuck alone with my dogs all weekend.

3. Dear, Jessica Greene, your break sounds very entertaining. It was very similar to mine because we both spent time with family that we haven't seen in a while. Also, we both saw family that are from out of state. In conclusion, our Christmas breaks were pretty similar.
