My vacations
Summer vacations are probably the happiest period in a
student’s life. It lasts for about two months and usually commence from the
first week of May every year. The purpose of summer vacations is multifold.
The very first being relaxation. After the two very exhaling
semesters (and that too without any mid sem break in amity) these two months
feels like heaven in a student’s life. After the even semester majors this
period seem to be the best time to spend some time relaxing away with no load of
studies what so ever. The second purpose being the time to tide over the
unbearable heat of the summer months (specially the hot and humid rainless
summers of Delhi). Summer vacations give
us a chance to visit new places and create some memorable experiences and have
a hell lot of fun.
My vacations started on 8th may 2013. As my school friends
had their colleges still running at it’s peak, during the early days of vacations
I spent most of the time sleeping, playing games on my laptop, and watching
movies. Some days passed and I was going out of stuffs to do and so I was
getting bored. That was the time when my cousins came from Jaipur, they turned
out to be vacation-saviours. This was the first time I went out of my house
during the vacations. We all had a wonderful time during their long week
stay.as they all left all my school friends were done with their exams and so
the time to rock the vacations had come. We started making our plans so as
where to go. We planned to leave Delhi in late June for Lansdowne a cantonment town in Pauri Garhwal district in
the Indian state of Uttrakhand. As we had loads of time left for our trip in
the mean time we decided to party here in Delhi itself. Almost every evening as
we all had nothing to do one of my friends took out his car and we drove
straight to G.K. There for about an hour or so we used to play badminton in the
DDA indoor badminton and squash stadium. After that we usually headed to the
nearby market and have fun. Days passed by and we spent our days roaming around
Delhi and meeting friends from whom we haven’t met from a long time. As the
days passed by and the time for our trip came closer we all were very excited.
We started our preparations for our trip when the shocking news of cloud burst
in the state of uttrakhand arrived. We all knew that this was the end and hence
all our remaining vacations were ruined. The floods and landslides in
Uttrakhand has devastated the lives of thousands of people and so have our
vacations. As of now very few days were left for our vacations to get over and
so we decided to continue partying here in delhi itself. We went out to pubs
and lounges. Ate, drank, danced, talked, laughed, enjoyed and ended the vacations the best possible way
it could have.
