Essay Winter Break
     After first semester ended, we went on a break for about three weeks before second semester started. During the first time of the break, I mostly stayed home. I went out to eat with family once in a while and sometimes went to visit my grandmother. She is not feeling too well, and had recently gotten surgery. I stayed home, missed out on church often. I stayed home, used, played on my computer. I like to play with my dog Coco because shes hyper and shes obviously my cute, awesome dog. Basically I ate, played, ate, talked with friends, went out for church or other social activities. I had once broke my laptop for leaving it on for too long. The screen became black and it wouldn't fix. The computer was on, everything was basically working except the screen. i had a Toshiba Satellite L505. I was looking for a fix on the internet since last year but couldn't find a fix. I recently came upon the idea to search up once more on how to fix the laptop because i actually needed the laptop for something. Miraculously there was a fix few weeks after the day i stopped looking for a fix. The fix was very simple, all i had to do was cover the fan, after it would heat up and the laptop would shut off itself by overheating. After i fixed it, there was a few days left of winter break and it was very useful for me to use. I actually doubted that this simple fix would work and just screw up my laptop even more but i took the risk cause either way it wouldn't work. I have two Toshiba laptops and i fixed both of them with the same fix, it was good and i thank the person who revealed it. It was like magic, the laptop just turned on after leaving it to overheat for about one hour to two hours. I restarted my laptop. Now i can perfectly use the laptop without any issues. It lags a little bit but it lagged before and it works fine now. I can use it like before, i saved a lot of money. During my winter break I had a bit of fun.

I talked to my friends on a software called Skype, we played games together, did allnighter's, and hung out during the summer. I went to this place called YMCA mostly everyday, its like a gym where you workout and play basketball. You have to sign up for like 20 dollars a month. I don't sign up cause i don't go often unless I'm on break. I use my friends pass to go play or go inside. A lot of my friends hang out, go to YMCA and then go home, play a popular game called league of legends, counter strike global offensive, Osu, etc.

I was a bit dissapointed when winter break was almost over. I was having so much fun with all my friends and knowing that i had to sleep early cause school is starting made me very sad. I have to wake up early, try to bring my grades up, which i don't do because I'm lazy. Winter break was a decent break for me. It was long about a week or two and it was a good break because going to school for a whole semester can be frustrating. Basically for my winter break that was all i did for the one-two weeks.
