Wednesday, May 5, 2010

i have been thinking about this a lot lately. summer officially starts for me in one week and i still don't know what i want to do with my three months worth of time off. what would make me happy? so that is why i am taking the time now, before summer begins, to evaluate what i want to do and what i want to accomplish with my time off. i don't know if next summer i will be lucky enough to have this "open to do whatever" summer so i want to make sure i make the most of this opportunity.

1. first things first...i want to go to float the river

2. i would like to go to the gym and lose 20 pounds

3. i would like to actually wear a two piece

4. i would like to read a book

5. i would like to paint my grandparents house [upon their request]

6. i would like to go on a road trip with friends

7. i would like to visit oklahoma where my grandparents grew up

8. i would like to start dressing cuter

9. i would like to make something crafty

10. i would like to get a job? not for sure where exactly yet

11. i would like to take a family road trip

12. i would like to go shopping with friends

13. i would like to go to rocky horror picture show

14. i want to volunteer in my community

15. i want to dye my hair

16. take some pictures with my polaroid camera

17. make some jewelry

18. start a garden

19. go bargain shopping at thrift stores/antique stores/flea markets

20. go downtown

21. go to the zoo or the museum of natural science

22. make a tie-dye shirt with sisters

23. go gambling in the indian reserves

24. fly my kite

25. write letters to my friends working at camp

26. have a water gun fight

27. play with sidewalk chalk

28. this one is out of my control but i would love to have a summer romance. i am a hopeless romantic that loves to watch romantic movies and i just can't help it. so even though i don't expect it to happen, if a boy comes along, that is cute and fun, i am going to do my best not to turn away but to embrace the summer love.

i'm sure i'll think of more but for now, this is what i want to do

white christmas lights

i love them indoors and outdoors

i especially love them in the winter when the whole town decorates

lonely

something i really like is "outside looking in" by jordan pruitt

i especially like the chorus

here are the lyrics

You don't know my name
you don't know anything about me
I try to play nice
I want to be in your game
The things that you say
You may think I never hear about them
But word travels fast
I'm telling you to your face
I'm standing here behind your back
[Chorus:]
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend on the outside looking in

If you could read my mind
You might see more of me than meets the eye
And you've been all wrong
Not who you think I am
You've never given me a chance
[Chorus]

Well, I'm tired of staying at home
I'm bored and all alone
I'm sick of wasting all my time
[Chorus]

You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend on the outside looking in

i have had a lot going on right now. one of my closest friends blew me off today and it wasn't something i expected from him. needless to say i was disappointed. sadly, this isn't the first time i have been blown off. i never realized how flaky some people are. it hurts.
