Summer's Coming

Finals week is approaching, and lack of motivation is setting in to its fullest for me. I have never been so unmotivated in my life. With summer a mere 10 days away, I can't help but think about all the wonderful things that I will get to do this summer.

Here is a list of summer activities that need to happen/will happen:

• Dinners with friends
• Cooking new recipes from KevinandAmanda.com and pbfingers.com, my two most favorite recipe blogs.
• Climbing Pinnacle Mountain
• Running
• Horseback riding
• Wine tasting
• Dancing downtown
• Numerous pool days
• Reading books unrelated to school
• Writing summer blog posts with pictures of activities and recipes
• Attend Little's wedding, Carmen's wedding, and SK's wedding
• Work to earn that cash money
• Yoga classes
• Movie watching
• Flirting with cute Starbucks guy
• Laughing
• Numerous crafting projects
• Quality time with the family
• Baking sweets and treats

I'm sure there is a lot of other stuff I've left out. But you get the picture. I am so thrilled to have real FREE time that is not dedicated to school/homework. And I'm so looking forward to the time I get to read books I want to read. I have developed a long list of book as well.

• "Little Bee" by Chris Cleave: A book I started a while ago, yet never finished. :/
• "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest" by Stieg Larsson: The final book in the Millennium Trilogy
• "Lover Unleased" by J.R. Ward: The next book in the Blackdagger Brotherhood series (a seriously steamy romance series that somehow I can't put down)
• "Heaven is For Real" by Todd Burpo
• "Water for Elephants" by Sara Gruen
• "Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins
• "Shit My Dad Says" by Justin Halpern
• "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett

And I'm sure there will be more. Now not all of these books will be read, but I do plan to make a nice dent in this list.

If you have any suggested reading or summer activities, please share. I'm always looking for something to do. Hope you have a great day. Must get cracking at this Tuesday.

Until next time...
