I should get started. I have exams this month, so might run out of time if I don't get writing soon.
Exams, where the hell do you go to school? It just started over here :x

I live in New Zealand. Here, school starts in February and ends in December. That way, we get most of the Summer off over December and January.

That confused me for before I realized that New Zealand has different weather cycles than America.

Yeah, it confuses a lot of people. I couldn't imagine having a cold Christmas. It must be really beautiful when it snows. It doesn't ever snow here, and it's nearly always warm. I think I'd prefer it in America ^^

I'm not so huge on cold either, but I prefer it to heat. At least you can sleep in Winter. In Summer, it doesn't matter how many fans you have going, it's still too humid.

Do you guys get a break for Winter?

We get four breaks, but three of them are only two weeks long. Our Summer break is 8-9 weeks long. I think I prefer your way still, though. Is it the same all across America?

Summer vacation varies by up to a week around the country, and I think the Winter and Spring breaks might start a day or two early/late depending on how long that state feels like making it.
