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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
