Things to Do on Your Sem break



No school for two weeks? What could be any better than that? (Kidding!) Sembreak is the most awaited time of the year for students…and yes teachers. It’s the perfect time to unwind and well, take a break.
If you have not made any plans yet, these suggestions might help:



ROAD TRIP.  Pack your bags, gas up and gun that engine. Hit the road to God knows where. Road trips are perfect bonding experiences amongst family and friends. Oh and don’t forget the camera. It would be nice to capture candid moments during the trip.




READ. Catch up on your readings. The cheapest way to travel the world and discover new things at the comfort of your own home is by leafing your way through the pages of a book.




MOVIE/DVD MARATHON. This is one economical way to bond with the entire family and friends. This is your chance to watch missed episodes of your favorite TV series. For the girls, this is a perfect opportunity to finish the entire season of your most-loved koreanovelas.

SIGN UP FOR VOLUNTEER WORK. Some hospitals like the East Avenue Medical Center welcomes volunteers to spend a day making children with terminal illnesses happy by keeping them company. You can also sign up for volunteer work in cause-oriented groups as Gawad Kalinga, Bantay Bata and Sagip Kapamilya.
EXERCISE. It’s time to bring out those dumbbells, hula hoop, exercise ball, and yoga mat that have been sitting in the storage for a while. Invite some friends over and organize a work-out session. If not, you can go for a walk or run around the village. These are good forms of exercise as well.
GET A MAKEOVER. Get a new do – Mohawk for the boys and bangs for the girls. Pair it up with a new set of outfit and perhaps a pair of kicks to wit.








DECLUTTER. Clean up your closet. Separate the ones that you can still use and those that you can donate to charity or sell for extra cash.







10. SLEEP. Need I say more? For doing a job well done waking up early in the morning, doing well in class and staying up late at night studying, this is one thing you truly deserve.
