Summer is the perfect time to try new things. Or just do things in general as the weather is nice and it’s not snowing in Toronto anymore (hooray!). I don’t know about you, but I tend to want to do silly things that remind me of summers from my youth, mainly because life was so simple back then! Now that I have a job, rent and other responsibilities there isn’t as much time to kick around and be lazy and summers generally aren’t as fun because a lot of that time is spent inside at work. Boo, adult life sucks sometimes.
Anyway, summer officially begins tomorrow! I’d like to make the most of this season, so I made a not-so-fancy list of things I’m going to try my best to accomplish before it’s over and the leaves start falling again.
Without further ado, here’s my list:
- have a BBQ on Toronto Island
- picnic on the beach
- write more (not just on this blog, I mean creative writing in general)
try slacklining[Woot! Already tried this before I knew what it was!]- make lemonade. Boozy lemonade. (Life has given me a lot of lemons lately, and when life gives you lemons…)
- get to work designing that game I’ve put on hold for, like, EVER
- take a weekend trip to NYC
- do absolutely nothing for a whole day
- read Game of Thrones
- check out Electric Island TO
- run through a sprinkler
- go stargazing
- build an app using Swift (yep, I’m a nerd. It’s part of my job description 😉
- sign up for kickboxing classes
- make a blanket fort
- for the love of God, organize my closet
- settle on a design for this blog and just do it!
- make s’mores over a campfire
- plan an epic overseas adventure for 2015
- grow out my bangs (This one is kinda… half on the list. I’m still undecided but thought I’d put it here for reference at the very least)
I might add more when I think of them. So what’s on your list this summer?
