Hello, it is summer.
I decided it is important for me to enjoy summer before I return to the daunting tasks of college life and work. So I decided to make a (loose) list of activities/events/hobby-ish things I would like to experience this summer.
1. Read. Jesika Barvitski has let be borrow about eight books, or so. I'm starting with A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishmael Beah. I'm pretty excited to dive into it, I'll probably post about it. (any suggestions here?)
2. garden. i have some seeds. my mom wants to plant some herbs, so just need to find an ideal spot (if anyone has any good tips, links, or books let me know!)
3. write songs. I had a streak going on at the end of the year. I hope to continue it in summer. I still have a few ideas in mind and want to play aroud with them.
4. write. i also have some blog post ideas starting to flow out of my brain from last semester. hopefully they are good.
5. Visit Troy Current.
6. Go to Brooklyn
7. Cook. Every once in a while I'll look at a cookbook (especially with pictures) and really want to create the dishes. (again, any ideas are helpful).
8. Build meaningful friendships.
9. Research grad school/intership/ job ideas. Just see what cool opportunites are out there.
10. Rest/Sleep/Reflect. I just need to spend a few days resting and sleeping. Also catching up with the family.
I like (loose) plans. Let's see how it goes.
What else can I do this summer?
