The last few weeks I have realized that I can't wait for summer vacation to come. With all the stress that comes along with school, and all the drama that comes with school. Summer vacation is a time where I can get away from all of it.
Although my summer will not be that interesting it will still be a break from school. I will probably spend most of my time working. I will be scoring basketball games for my dad's varsity basketball leauge, and working at culvers. Working is where I can get the money I need for school, and most of the time I enjoy who I am working with.
One of my vacations that I am taking this year is I am going to Ohio. I am going there the 4th of July weekend for my brothers baseball tournament. But I think that I am more excited to see my friends that live in Ohio than watching my brother play. My friends in Ohio are like my second family who I haven't seen in about a year.
After my trip out there, it will be back to Wisconsin to keep working. There might be a trip up to Grantsbug with some friends, and maybe the Mall of America. Even though my trips wont be long it will still be a break, and then in the fall, I will be ready to come back to school.

Distractions while driving
When driving on the road how hard is it to stay focused. There are many distractions now. There is either changing the music, checking your phone or even talking to someone in the car with you.
I was coming back to school one night and was driving on the freeway. There was a semi next to me and saw that i was in the middle lane. Next thing i knew he was trying to come into my lane while i was still in that lane. I was wondering what he was doing that he didn't see me, he had just seen me because i saw him look in his side mirror.
Another time I was sitting at a stop sign waiting my turn to go. Next thing I know the car behind me rear ended me. I found out that the person was checking their phone and had thought that i had already went through the intersection.
I think that if we had less distractions in the car it would make people safer drivers. People just need to pay attention to what they are doing and not worry about what else is going on until they get done driving. Less distractions would mean fewer accidents, and less to worry about on the road.
