Winter Break

                                      

For winter break I didn’t do much except staying at home playing video games, doing my homework, and going to the beach to build sandcastles.  While at home I would usually read a book or do homework but for Christmas we bought a new cable which was what we needed to finally get our Xbox to work and I think that I spent a little too much time playing Minecraft and not doing my homework. I also had homework over the break which wasn’t really hard and I got it done in a day but I needed to practice playing the violin because I brought it home over the break and needed lots of practice. But my favorite thing that I did was going to the beach and building sandcastles. I might have gotten in the water but over the break I was surprised at how cold the water was and didn’t get in. So I decided to build a sandcastle with my sister. I also think that a “sandcastle” brings to mind a small bucket shaped tower with a window poked in but the sandcastles we built had a base about four by four one foot high with a castle on top that was pretty cool. Whenever we left we would always see kids approaching it because we weren’t there and start jumping on it and destroying it but when we would come back there would be a small hill of sand where the castle was. But after a week it kind of got boring and we stopped building sandcastles.
