Yeah. It will be my summer holidays. I don't mind havine a long break, but I think this is too much, really. 6 weeks seems much better. And we don't have anything to do over our breaks.
For University here, we have 3 semesters a year, (Fall: September-December; Winter: January-April; Summer: May-August), but most people don't do the summer one, so that will just be a holiday for them, though there are about 2 weeks in between each semester, so even if you were doing all three in a year, you would get some sort of a holiday.
Which State is it you live in? When I was over there, I was in Baden-Württemberg.
