1. The Snap-venturous

You and your family and/or friends go somewhere exciting every winter break. Whether you are lounging poolside on a Caribbean getaway or skiing down freshly powdered slopes, your Snapchat story is sure to make others jealous as you take full advantage of your break to travel. You may secretly hate your family by the end, but the rest of us are still insanely jealous of your adventures. 

2. The Netflix Marathon

Essentially the opposite of the Snap-venturous, you’re not on this break to make friends. You’re here for the sleep, the delicious free food and the HBO Go password. Your parents practically have to beg you to hang out with them, but you just can’t be bothered to put on pants. Your break might sound boring to everyone else, but the joke’s on them because you’ll be the only one who’s well-rested and ready for the start of the semester.

3. The Family-Oriented

You spend the majority of break baking cookies with Grandma, playing tag football with your cousins and attending family parties. You probably have a lot of cousins that are near your age. You’re the type of family that still sends Christmas cards wearing matching outfits, even though you’re all over the age of ten. You might even go caroling. We admire your adorable dedication to the season, but don’t quite get it.

4. The High School Reunion 

You’re still really close with a lot of your high school friends, so you spend a lot of your break slipping out of family functions early to go hang out with them. If you’re under 21, this means you probably spend a lot of time in your friends’ basements, catching up. It’s sort of like nothing’s changed, except that your conversations are (hopefully) a lot more substantial. There’s a 90 percent chance that you will end up talking to someone at a party or bar that you haven’t seen since tenth grade, and they might have a goatee now.

5. The Worker Bee

You applied for a temporary job for the holiday season or have to go back to school early to work at your current job. You get to deal with last-minute holiday shoppers, which is basically the worst kind of shopper. Or, if you’re in food service, you get to serve a lot of awkward family dinners. Either way, this might not be the most carefree of vacations, but you’ll be the one laughing when you start the semester with a positive number in your back account. 

So, which type of break will you be having? I'd say mine is a combination High School Reunion/Family Oriented, but the household Netflix subscription will definitely get its money's worth. Either way, hope it's a great one!
