i spent this summer vacation in quite a different way.

　　i used to run about every day in previous summer vacations,this summer vacation i simply could not afford to do so.

　　i would soon be in the last year of my high-school education would after graduation be up against the college entrance examinations.

　　though those examinations were still a year away, i had to start early to make myself well prepared by reviewing all those things i had learned at school this summer vacation was the ideal time for me to do this.

　　at first i was rather dismayed at the thought of this,8ttt8.comlater i thought it was better this way because by working hard this summer i could count on endless happy summers to come.

　　with this in mind i then set to work like anything and occasionally went out for a change or did some physical. i was not at all bored by this kind of life, for i was sustained by a hope.
