Idiom: Head for
Example 1:
Vicki: I can’t believe it's almost time for Summer Break. I’m so excited.
Bjorn: Me, too!
Vicki: Do you have any plans?
Bjorn: I’m heading for Yellowstone Park. I’m going to spend the week camping and hiking!
Vicki: Hmmm…that’s good if you like camping and the outdoors. I’m more of a city girl.
Bjorn: Really?
Vicki: Yes. After school is out, I’ll get ready to head for the outlet malls. I can’t think of anything better than shopping for a week!
Example 2:
Janine: Pete, you really should start studying more every day for classes. You are getting more behind every day.
Pete: Oh, Janine. You worry too much. I’ll have plenty of time later.
Janine: No, you won’t. You are headed for trouble if you don’t study. You could actually get kicked out of school!
Pete: Do you really think so?
Janine: Yes! It happened to me when I first started school here. I know what I am talking about.
Pete: Well, maybe you are right. I guess I am headed for failure if I don’t start studying more.
Janine: Of course I’m right! I’ll even help you.
Janine: Thanks, Janine!
Meaning: To travel or go toward some destination; to set something or someone on a course toward some situation or condition (used passively).
