1. You can sleep until 10 a.m., or until your mom yells at you for being lazy and drags you out of bed.

2. You eat a breakfast of chocolate cake and nobody lectures you about the importance of a healthy breakfast and how crucial it is that the first food you eat of the day stimulates you brain for the long day of school ahead.

3. The stress of school is completely gone and you don’t have to worry about that English essay or that math test or any other madness.

4. You go to a store or out to lunch and see people dressed in suits, feel sorry for them, but are glad that it’s them working and not you.

5. You play “would you rather” through texts for a full day, never having to take a break except to eat or use the bathroom.

6. You start making lunch at 3 p.m.

7. You realize that you don’t know what day it is until you look at the headline of the newspaper.

8. You’re in your pajamas until 4 p.m. and spend all day watching a marathon of the Twilight movies and talking on the phone.

9. You can read a whole book in a day, and enjoy it because it’s something you chose to read and not an assignment.

10. When someone calls you and asks when you can hang out, you’re available pretty much every day.

Oh, the joys of vacation.
