Break

The complete opposite of the technical definition; the time period where teachers find it perfectly acceptable to assign giant heaps of homework. As if students have time to analyze every Shakespearean play, invent an entirely new mathematical equation, read chapters one through ninety for biology, and singlehandedly solving world hunger; a time of no rejuvenation.

"Students, make sure you read all four hundred sixty four pages of 'Wuthering Heights' and write a 10 page summary on the theme of the book. Oh, by the way, I hope you have a very relaxing winter break, and make sure you get enough sleep!"
