Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer

Well, it’s done then. I just handed in my last assignment for this semester…. Now I have 3 months of glorious summer to look forward to …. Happiness is me !!!!

Wow, I can hardly decide where to start,

I have to get down to reading the books I’ve collected over the course of this past year. Have to complete The Bronze Horseman, Conversations with God , Memoirs of a Geisha ,The World is Flat, Tao of Pooh , Te of Piglet as well as the other books lying in my cupboard. Other books in my reading list would be Love in the time of Cholera , Zahir by Paulo Coelho , I want to read Pirsig once again; also have to read the Fifth Discipline once again, hopefully read some more Maya Angelou , yes I wont be a stranger to the public library anymore ...( reading suggestions welcome )

Get back to working out .

Clean up the apartment!!!

Back to veganism and detox .. yup I think I can do a better job now that school’s out .

Watch TV… watch some good movies … since I got this laptop haven’t seen a movie in like forever.. saw Spanglish on HBO recently though…it’s a good movie ….

Try and improve my blogging skills.
Try and improve my cooking skills ???? Maybe not , not one of the ‘funner’ things on this list .
Travel a bit hopefully.

OMG , return calls and log on to messenger , I’ve been so “swamped” I haven’t gotten back to or called up any of my friends in about 3 months …should do so his weekend …


Watch VH1 or listen to the radio, I know that some good new songs have come out in the past six months !!


I think I’ll miss the long holiday part of student life a lot, though when you have a job you hopefully don’t carry work back home with you, unlike the situation in grad school!!

This reminds me of something a wise bear once said ,“Don't underestimate the value of doing nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering.”. Well, I don’t know if this out of context, but I can do a lot of “doing nothing and just going along” for a while.

Of course I will be working over the break. But I look forward to the few “lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer” I have in the interim, of course it would take a separate post to go back to the last real “Lazy/Crazy days of summer” , summer break was so much fun during high school!!!
