Back to school
This was the longest holiday ever and I do not even know where to start.
We got like an entire month of holiday! It was such a long holiday considering that schools were supposed to close on Wednesday, 26 April. Due to other circumstances, they ended up closing earlier. I feel this holiday was a great way for us as learners to think about our lives and what we will accomplish at the end of the lengthy holiday. During this holiday, I went through a lot of issues in my mind. I thought about my life and what I want. I even went as far as setting targets for next term that I know I'm going to reach if I work hard.
Apart from thinking about targets and what to achieve, this holiday also gave us sufficient time to travel around Namibia with our families. The sad thing is, most of our parents were working and they obviously did not take leave for the entire holiday. Nonetheless, it was still great spending time with them. I went to the north for a week and I had so much fun. I missed my roots and my family. The weather was not that cold but hot and I still had a great time. I ate a lot of farm grown food since it is the season when a crops are harvested from the farms and fields.
Luckily, there was not a lot of work to do. I later came back to Windhoek to continue enjoying the holiday. I also had lots of fun here. I went out with my friends almost every day and spent more time with them. This helped me to get to know them better and capture memorable events with them this holiday. It is literally just a week left before schools reopen. I cannot wait to see my friends and all my lovely teachers. Of course, I am going to give it my all this term in order to reach the targets that I have set for myself.
I still have bad habits that I want to ditch this term such as procrastination and I must learn to do my homework at school. I believe in myself and I know I can do it. My advice to all the learners in Namibia is to set targets and work to achieve them. I hope you will focus on what you want to do and achieve really wish that you succeed in the end! Don't forget that life is short so have fun. I wish you all an awesome and blessed trimester.
