I have one for this website (content that I want to get up before the end of the summer), a list for my <a href=\"http:\/\/amesrpg.com\">game<\/a> (which is turning 3 years old soon!) and my <a href=\"http:\/\/chelle-chelle.com\">writing\/crafts site<\/a> (which is getting revamped&#8230; albeit rather slowly).<\/p>\n<p>And then there&#8217;s a list of all the stuff that I want to do this summer that&#8217;s offline. My friends want to go bicycling one weekend (early July), and then there&#8217;s <em>Les Miserables<\/em> with Clay (mid-July) and a Shakespeare play that I&#8217;m going to with my sisters (late August). There&#8217;s a sleepover birthday party, a parade (early August) and oodles of volunteering. But there&#8217;s just so much more that I want to do. Like&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Going to the aquarium<\/li>\n<li>Going to the local(ish) zoo<\/li>\n<li>Going to the art gallery<\/li>\n<li>Going to the amusement park<\/li>\n<li>Going camping&#8230; (not so sure about this one, I&#8217;d need to find my sleeping bag first and I&#8217;m not sure if D brought it back from LA or not)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Essentially, I&#8217;d like to play tourist in the local metropolitan area. And document it in the form of photographs. I&#8217;d like to have a different sort of summer than I did last year, where I didn&#8217;t do very much beyond work and buy textbooks for the upcoming year (I am such a nerd&#8230;).<\/p>\n<p>But seriously, the <em>aquarium<\/em>. I haven&#8217;t been in years and years and years. So I&#8217;m sure they&#8217;ve changed a lot and gotten a lot of new animals and such. Plus, it&#8217;s an aquarium. Don&#8217;t even get me started on how many times I watched <em>Blue Planet<\/em> when my dad borrowed it from his friend.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there&#8217;s also some not-so-fun things to do. Like do a bit more research on nursing programs (well, that&#8217;s sort of fun), work (and work, work, work), getting used to driving the other car (that&#8217;s twice the size of the other car &#8211; or just feels that way), registering for courses, buying textbooks.<\/p>\n<p>And I&#8217;ve been considering increasing the number of hours I volunteer per week. I currently do 2 hours (1pm-3pm) on Sundays. The woman who supervises the volunteers on the weekends is perfectly okay if I decide to change my hours or increase them, as she&#8217;s already mentioned that. So I&#8217;m considering that&#8230; Maybe. I tend to make plans with friends and such on Saturdays, so I think it&#8217;d be fine if I lengthened the amount of time I volunteered on Sundays &#8211; she&#8217;s always understanding if I decide to take a week off. So&#8230; Maybe?<\/p>\n<p>But in other news, regarding my actual day&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>My dad liked his Father&#8217;s Day gift (two new shirts, one package of Ice Breakers mints &#8211; his favourite, and lunch out). Which was good. He spotted the mints (partially hidden under the two shirts) and opened that one first and had one before he went to try on the new shirts. It was funny, because I had a bet with my sisters that the first thing that he would do after opening his gift was to open the mints.<\/p>\n<p>And my question for you today is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>When&#8217;s the last time that you played tourist in your local area?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have so many To Do Lists right now.
