22 Things To Put On Your Summer Bucket List
barnyz

Since we are towards the end of the semester, I have been thinking a lot about summer. Summer is that time of the year in which everyone is finally free from school--unless you are taking summer courses--and can plan to do all the things you could not do before.

Summer is the perfect time to go out, enjoy nature, exercise, do sports, paint, take lots of pictures, write, read, travel, be creative, etc. The possibilities are just endless. I have to admit that my favorite season was fall, but, since this year we had a very crazy winter, summer has become my favorite.

As a result, I have been pretty excited about summer time and I have decided to write a list of the things I am planning to do. I hope everyone can relate and give me some more ideas to add to this list.

Without further ado...here is my list:

1. Ride a bike

It has been really nice outside and I hope it stays that way. It is just the perfect time to just go out and ride a bike.

2. Cook

I have always wanted to try so many recipes I have seen on media, but I haven't had enough time.

3. Read a book

I have a couple of books I have been trying to read, but again I have time management problems.

4. Road Trip

It would be very cool to do this and just forget for a bit about your problems and go to a place you have never been before.

5. Go to the Beach

This is an obvious one.

6. Go to an Amusement Park

I really want to ride a rollercoaster, I just love it.

7. Go out for long walks

Winter is finally over. It is time to get back outside.

8. Take care of myself

Now that I am free, I just want to give more attention to myself. Take a long bath, meditate, have a positive attitude, etc.

9. Be more creative

I want to finish all those drawings and paintings I have started once, and also make new ones too.

10. Eat Healthier

This is going to be hard because we all have something that we can just quit eating.

11. Earn and save some money

When I get or earn some money, the first thing I do is spend it on new clothes or any other type of material good I really want at that moment. Yes, I need to think a little bit more before spending everything I have.

12. Rock Climbing

I just need to do it and check it out of my list.

13. Binge-Watch old/new TV shows

Ahhh....there are way too many. I might start right now.

14. Relax

Yes, school is over...no more worries

15. Sleep

Again--school is over--now I can get those 15 hours of sleep if I want.

16. Learn those song lyrics I wanted so badly

There are so many songs I want to learn and sing along.

17. Take lots of pictures

18. Canoeing

I just need to do it again, I had so much fun.

19. Have a picnic

This seems like a very interesting idea--I hope there are not bees outside though.

20. Volunteer

There are many opportunities and is a way of helping people.

21. Get a job

It is very hard to get a job you like, but I will not surrender. I will just keep trying.

22. Try something new

Mmm...Yes! I definitely need to do this!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

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.
