And it is the end of the schooling days..

Usually when students hear the word holidays, it is much cause for celebration. As one gets older though, that one now becomes the dreaded word. We prefer the words 'half day'; it connotates an actual holiday. The holidays like June are no longer ours to control, taken over by extra lessons and us students studying for exams which jump on us the moment we step back through the school gates. Even the weekend is not spared. We have work assigned to us that keeps us busy all throughout that supposed 'rest' period. What a ripoff. Where did the five day work week go? If that is impossible, lets extend the week to a 9 day week and then we truly can have a break!

Last day in school calls for another poem to mark this phase in life. Here goes:

Everybody, your attention please
All studying kindly cease
Take up your consoles and game
Maybe the hols will bring you fame

You study for ten months
Why don't you take a break for once?
Its finally, after all
the time you walk out of school's door

Oh sure, like we have time
A second played we lose a dime
Strain on eyesight
Wallet becomes light

Can't believe I want to return to school
Lectures, tutorials, let's go do
Ready steady
Study!
