Well, as I'm sure we've all felt the coming heat of summer, the end of finals this week, and what some might call as "freedom," summer is basically here! Time to roast and drink lemonade in one hundred in ten degree shade if you get the chance. Oh, the sunscreen that I will seriously wear...[No fried Alpha this year.] Now I know most of us will be working, some might even be schooling, and others may not actually be doing either of those things. Maybe ya'll will take some time to eat blue ice cream. I know this summer is going to be jam-packed with me, though I WILL be taking time off for the Ren Faire. [I'm going as a gypsy this time. Gotta bring out some of the ancestrial blood this year.  ] What are ya'll's plans for the summer? Goals? Planning to take it asy--work hard or hardly work at all? I'm planning on actually buying property, some mustangs, working my behind off, and have a hilariously good time. After all, it's time for SUMMER LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV! [Hopefully that lasts BEYOND summer. Hehehe.] So what do you enjoy about summer? Or hate? |

All I care about is the HEAT. It's soooo wonderful! It doesn't matter what I'm doing, I'm thrilled because it's hot and sunny out. XD !!
My biggest "goal" is to enjoy life and find someplace good around here to swim. I have other general life goals, but I don't plan on speeding them up during the summer or anything.
Sun makes everything better. <3

woah. I'm randomly coming out of lurker mode for no apparent reason. I blame midterms.  ; I can't stand summer. It's too hot and too sunny. I'd rather trudge through three feet of snow just to get the mail than spend 20 minutes in 90 degree dry heat. yuck. Not to mention I get sunburned within 10 minutes in the summer. but, I will be spending my summer indoors - a paid undergraduate research position on the mathematical properties of the atmosphere. *GLEE* I can't wait. My goals over the summer: don't get a sunburn-blister, go swimming, horseback riding, and to go on at least one vacation. hnm. >.>; |

Alpha- Where are you/which faire do you go to? I worked at the New York Ren Faire for a while (the Tuxedo one  ) and I tend to be there off and on a good deal. As for other plans... this will probably be my busiest summer. May 10-31 I'll be in Britain (Wales, specifically), YAY! Plans there include riding lots of ponies, including a two day/2 night horse trek through mountains, which I'm really looking forward to. And depending on how well I get along with my boyfriend's new horse, I may do a bit of showing, woo! We'll probably also go camping, and do other stuff! Yay! Then in June I have my sister's bridal shower, and uhm... other stuff that I know I'm forgetting. I'll probably also be working (likely at a horse camp) and frolicking here and there. Same for July. August is my sister's wedding, and Ren Faire, and then it's back to school (blarg). But yeah, I'm looking forward to all the good stuff  |

Lol, actually, Utah Faire. Next spring/summer I'll be over there in Britian and whatnot but this summer, it's work and save!

My summer? Mostly I'm working - er, volunteering, no pay, at a Girl Scout Day Camp for the younger girls. I'm also doing a session a camp where we take a week-long trail ride and one where we learn how to teach horsebackriding. And riding- I hope to do lots of that. And on evenings....relax. Swim.

I must agree with Aylura- I abhor summer. As I say: "You can always put more clothes on, but there's only so many you can take off!" For what I'm up to, probably working, hopefully working somewhere besides where I've worked for the past coming-on-five years. @_@ Nowhere worse on Earth than working in a cafeteria dishroom during 90-degree weather that I've found so far. A half hour can make you faint. Thankfully I don't get stuck back there much, but I always feel terrible for the dishroom workers.  |
