Hallo everyone. Around the world various schools and other institutions are letting out for Summer Break. What's everyone doing this summer?
Nilly
My parents are having their yearly LAN party with their gaming clan, and then in August my mom's best friend from said clan is coming up for my mom's birthday. I don't know if I'm doing anything, probably will start looking for a job. I'm thinking of working at the pet store - especially since nobody I know works there. huh.gif

Your PARENTS organise LAN parties. That is either kinda weird or really awesome.

Im just gonna be bored all summer i guess.

I'm gonna be working and doing whatever I feel like.
Starting next month, I'll be close enough to Deep Ellum and Oak Lawn that I'll have plenty to do should I decide to leave my place.

Heh, some people take both sides of it but most think it's awesome. They don't actually organise them, but my mom makes a lot of food for it. XD

Awesome concert venues.......live local bands and a few not so local

Seriously if you guys are in the area this summer, go down to Deep Ellum and you will have a blast. But only one place will let in 17 yo. The rest are 18 and up.

So yeah, I already told you guys what my summer's gonna be like.

Yeah, all of the places I've been to is 18+, and they stamp the minors hands. I'm not into clubs...unless they have a live band playing! What venues have you been to? I've seen Fueled by Fire, Toxic holocaust, Midnight, and alot of local bands. One local band was pure talent, and I was surprised they were that good. Too bad their name was too hard to remember...or the booze was too strong. Whatever.

Also, I forgot what you're summer's gonna be like. Probably more exciting than mine...maybe...tongue.gif

I work at a college so the students get a summer break (3 weeks) as to faculty but I'm in IT and it's the only time we can do all our PC/Mac upgrades so I'll be working.

Tho, I do start college again for the summer term so whoo hoo! WebDesign Degree inc! So In a few years I'll have not one but two Ha Ha Ha (Imitating the count from seasme street) Degrees, a web design one and my computer animation one. Only bonus, the web design degree is totally free, it's good to work at a college tuition grants are win!

The Door, The Loft, The Icehouse (great one and it makes me a little sad everytime I go), Paladium Ballroom, House of Blues.....and Superpages.com Center (not in Deep Ellum, but still the best place for a big concert)
I don't remember all the bands' names, too much or one thing or another. Though I wanted to go see Rev Theory last weekend, but I couldn't get tickets soon enough.

My summer consists of work, seeing friends, and taking a much needed vacation.

I suppose I should feel lucky I have Six Flags nearby then. I do want to travel, though. Staying here is so boring. The only real upside is....well.....my vacation time. At least I'll have time to go out at night now. What I wanna do is go to the beach. I've been to the lakes. I've gone camping. I've been to Vegas (wouldn't mind going back there, either). I've done the cross country road trip. I've spent time at camp. Not much I haven't done during past summers. Now give me a beach tongue.gif

What's so bad about working? I mean sure there's the actual work, the stress, the other people, the hours, the lousy pay that's never enough to be fair........wait what was I saying?

Um, yeah summer. Maybe I'll make time to go to Six Flags this year. Haven't been there in a while.....

You know....some girls LIKE nerds....A LOT....I never understood why nerds try to hide the fact they are nerds, or stop doing nerd things when they get a girlfriend....Frankly I encourage my boyfriend to be a nerd. He's the one getting me into warhammer and D&D, and I love it.

As for summer.....does working 9 hours a day, 5 days a week count as a summer?

I'm going to try and go camping, Fan Expo is a definate, and....that's about it....wow my summer sucks...T_T"

Oh and I'm graduate university happy.gif YAY I"M FREE!!!!

.....to work all day, pass out and do it all over again every day for the rest of my life until i retire.....ok that just killed the joy T_T....

Forget this......i'm going to go win the lottery and travel........

I can dream.....
HerSevvyBear
I'm out of school. I'm doing nothing.

Instead of getting a job, hanging out with my friends, or doing something otherwise worth doing, I plan on sitting right here at my compy, meeting new people and getting tubbeh. Sounds like a plan =D

W00t Warhammer! I need a job so I can expand my 40k army >.>;

I already had my "summer" adventure. Went to Anime Boston last weekend and had lots of fun doing damn near nothing wink.gif

The same thing we do every night Pinky, try and take over the world.

On another note, there's probably about two days a year when I like to go outside. When it's not too hot and not too cold in the spring or fall.
Luneabelle
Well, ASIDE from what I do every summer, which consists of hiding
indoors at all costs and only going outside when I HAVE to, after slathering
on copious amounts of SPF 70 sunblock....

I'm gonna be taking classes at the local college..
I need to bring up my math proficiency so I can start taking other classes.

I'm thinking of working towards a business degree, but I'm not sure.
The actual classes I wanted to take, psychology, general sexuality, and philosophy were all full.
So... yeah.

For now, it's math classes and introduction to administration of justice.
Just for kicks, of course.
I need 12 credits by the end of the year...

Maybe when fall rolls around I'll take some more fun classes, like keyboard and voice classes.
Sessamaru
This summer... I'll be looking for work, moving into my garage (which is nice and spacious and away from everyone else,) RPing as usual. Perhaps coming to the Main Threads and commenting my rare visits. I may write a story or two, go to summer school... swimming, perhaps. And, my personal favourite, sleeping in!
Rayne
I plan on hibernating until it's autumn/winter again, if you must know. But aside from that I'm hitting up California in August to see my bff Grant, looking at colleges, progressing in Krav Maga, jogging at midnight when it's cooler than, you know, any time the sun is up, starting ballet... and staying inside as much as possible.

Good lord, it's hot... and sticky...

I'm leaving tomorrow for a "High Adventure", or so my superiors call it. 2 days backpacking, 3 days canoeing. So I'm not gonna be on the forums at all next week. Oh well. S'not like anyone will miss me.
Death Cultist
One day of school left here. It's been a full year but it only feels like five months (with vacations and weekends, it probably was). As far as work goes... volunteering at the library is simple yet effective. I'll also have a part time job for this brilliant concierge company run by my mom. Really its just accounting and scheduling work 5-7 hours a week.
The fun starts when me and my sis fly out east (US) and visit our relatives. That'll be around a week in advance of this year's family reunion (another year, another beach house). More importantly, this is the first reunion in my memory that includes both my mom's and my dad's sides of the families, my grandparents haven't seen each other since my parent's wedding. Only about two or three states separate them, but everyone's so busy lately, life being a chore and all.

It's wet and humid this summer, and it's only the beginning.

Me thinks spring time was slacking this year.
