How to spend a meaningful vacation
As a middle school student, we should do something meaningful during our vacation. As we know, there are lots of things to do.
First of all, we can take exercise every day. For example, playing basketball is a good way. Sports can help us keep healthy and think clearly. Then we can listen to music for a while after finishing our homework. It can make us relaxed. What’s more, we can do some outside reading during our holiday. I think reading can open our mind and we can also get great fun from it. Of course, we should help our parents with the housework, such as cleaning the house, washing clothes and cooking.
In a word, our vacation will be colorful. We should enjoy it.
