My last vacation

My last vacations should have been last summer, but I didn't really have it, because as last year I finished High School, and this was a Politechical one, in which I studied Administration, between December 29th, 2008 and March 13th, 2009 I had to make my practice for obtaining my certification. That's mainly why last summer was really no vacation for me, and this, definitely, made me a bit sad, and even a bit confused, because on the one hand I wanted to complete this stage of my life, but on the other I wanted to leave and to go to the beach, for example, or resting or just sleeping more than what I did between march and december, and what was worst, I disliked what I worked in.
Anyway, on weekends, I could travel to the beach, to my grandparent's house in Cartagena (my dad's parents). I left the heat of Santiago on friday, happily taken by one of my uncles on car, and I enjoyed of pure air and sea breeze, and also sharing with my cousins and dad over all until sunday, when I came back.
What I liked the most of my "vacations" was, absolutely, my birthday party. In fact, my birthday is on February 8th, but I celebrated it on Saturday 21st, because I couldn't make it before ( in effect, I had no money). I had assumed that most of my friends would came, but I was wrong, because as I live away from them (at least they told me that was the reason why), and many of them were out of Santiago, there were not many of them. Anyway, in my party we were seventeen, though like 5 were cousins of mine. It seems that next summer I'll make my party on march as better.
So, that's almost everything what my "vacations" were like. It doesn't matter, because next will be anyway better!!
