5 Things To Do Before Summer Ends
wine curmudgeon

There's only two weeks left before school starts. Where did the summer go? Well, I certainly spent this summer working a lot and doing some travel. Now with two weeks to go, I am trying to have an actual summer. This past week I went home and saw family and got a chance to relax. With two weeks to go, there are five things that I want to try and get done before school starts.


1. I want to finish the HBO show Game of Thrones.

This show right now has been all I watch on TV. Saturday was just spent watching one entire season. Currently, I am on season four, episode eight but I plan to be fully caught up on season seven by the end of this upcoming week.

2. I want to go into the city and explore.

When I say "the city", I am referring to San Francisco. I lived in the Bay Area for about seven weeks this summer but didn't really have an opportunity to actually explore. I want to go back and spend a weekend walking around town and exploring. I want to see what San Francisco has to offer. I also want to get a sense for the night life in the city.

3. I want to just catch up with friends.

Now that people are starting to come back to Stockton for training or to help out for orientation, I want to catch up. It's been months since I have seen some of my friends. One of the ways that I was thinking about catching up with them was by hosting a BBQ. This way they can relax and talk and end summer on a good note.

4. I need to clean my room.

This one is a must do. I have the habit of just leaving my clean clothes in the closet and not hanging them or putting them back where they belong. Currently, my closet is a mess. I need to get ready for the school year by starting off on the right foot; that is, by getting organized.

5. I want to party.

This last thing that I want to do before summer is over is to go out and party. I haven't been out to a party for a few months. I think the last time was in April, but with the start of school, I want to party at least once before I devote 90% of my time to work and school work. That has been a rule of mine since I started college. I only allow myself to have a bit more fun than normal before and after the school semester. I try to go out and keep the partying to a minimum during the school year.

I can't wait for the start of my senior year. It feels like just yesterday when I was about to start my freshman year of college. Time certainly does fly by. But I do intend to spend the next weeks living life to its fullest and enjoying every minute of what's left of summer.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
