With the reception of my final grade (A- in English, for once in my life), the school year is adjourned, and my summer officially begins. For many, this would be a great time to kick back and relax, but for me it only spells a barrage of bigger, more daunting tasks that have ever befallen me:
Learning how to drive, finding a job at a bank, making enough to make a down payment on next year's tuition...(*cough $6415.90 + textbooks cough* ), and the tension of a possibility of not making it into the Accounting faculty next year at all.
I realize that it's only going to help me in the long run, but because I'm used to being super fat and lazy in the summer, it feels like I have the entire world on my shoulders - and it's freakin' heavy.
All serious business aside, how do I respond when people ask "so how is your summer going?" Well, I'm not really one for change, so the answer to that question is "the same thing I've been doing the rest of the year, but like twice as much." The only thing I've done thus far in no particular order is get fatter, watch anime, play piano, read a visual novel, ebay (yes, I actually consider this an activity \x.x/), marathon The Lord of The Rings Trilogy, and turtle my way through learning some more Kanji. That's what my idea of fun in the sun looks like in practice - sitting alone in a dark basement with my eyes sparkling with the glare of my computer monitor.
I would like to practice drawing also, as it is a skill I've wanted to improve since I was in elementary school, but always seems to take a back seat to other tasks, probably because I subconsciously avoid doing difficult things (doesn't everyone?).
