"Planning for Spring Break"

It was the time of the year again
To plan a short trip for the upcoming spring break
We all wanted to head to the Philippines
But planning wasn't going to be a piece of cake

I haven't been there in a long ten years
So all the talk made me extremely excited
My mom was planning for three weeks of vacation
But my school attendance would be affected

Since there's only a few weeks left until break
Booking tickets now would consume our wallets
My parents and I wanted to go so badly
But we surely couldn't afford to be in debt

To go or not to go, that was the question
I guess it was less likely that we would
There were so many things getting in the way
Of going back to where I spent my childhood

I wanted to spend as much time there with my family
And enjoy the time to the fullest extent
So we talked and agreed we would go in the summer
And no doubt that this made me very content

As for spring break we planned for Virginia
To visit my aunts, uncles, and cousins
I just have to get through a couple days of school work
And pretty soon all the fun will begin!
