I have a story i'm writing, but i've had a notorious history of starting and not finishing stories...
besides that, work and make money to buy books for next semester i guess...

I plan on working out and losing weight, learning Tagalog, learning Japanese, and working on my website and manga. Hopefully, I'll be moving sometime in the mix. Anyone want to buy my house? ;)

I don't have a to-do list yet, but... I plan to take a college math test in the summer. (Fun, right? *shudders*) I also should start driving soon, which really sounds fun. Aside from that, I intend to keep working out, and maybe devote more time to reading. Oh maybe I'll write some more video game reviews... I'd like to learn more Japanese as well, but it's so hard to stay motivated and teach yourself.

I wish you the best of luck, KBMaster. Ganbatte Ikimasshoi!

Wow, you sound a lot like me. I often have time finishing my stories... So many ideas! So little time... (or, rather, I don't MAKE the time... <_<)


Umn... This summer I am planning on getting some reading (my "books to read list" is like... 6 pages long! [no lie!]) and writing done. Hopefully I will complete one of my stories on my ever growing list of unfinished stories and get an agent this fall so I can try to get something published! Ermn... Also, I will be preparing for college and catching up on some anime watching and manga reading! I may write some more songs. Annnd my final mission is to have as much fun as possible before becoming a serious student in the Honors College Program at the University! @_@ ROCK ON WHILE IM YOUNnnnnnng! XDDD :rock:

> Hopefully learn some Japanese.

> Draw.

> Get some volunteer hours down at the library.

Implement the following in C++
1)Neural Intelligibility Index
2)Spectro-Temporal Intelligibility Index

and use (1) and (2) in some version of the ALOPEX algorithm to put together the neurocompensator algorithm. I have several other things to do, but that will keep me busy in the short term. With any luck, I'll also have to prepare a presentation for Lake Tahoe this August.

I also want to do a lot reading and miniatures painting, and maybe see if I can have a short vacation somewhere (maybe Montreal or something).

Hmmm...my main goal for the summer is to keep myself from going insane with boredom. I haven't had so much luck with that the past few summers. XD Some ideas I've had are:

Routinely work out and eat healthier.

Keep in touch with friends from my old school.

Visit the beach a few times.

Practice driving A LOT and get my license in August.

Probably not going to get a job this summer, at least, until I start driving on my own the chances are pretty slim.

~ Compete in the NCFCA National speech and debate tournament in three speech events and debate
~ Keep practicing guitar in hopes I one day will be able to play it decently
~ Buy cool stuff

More than I can handle, probably. Mainly, though, work a ton of overtime and play catch up with bills, finish moving out of my apartment, devote the summer to pimping my computer and kind of rebuilding it, going to the beach as much as I possibly can, and, most awesome of all, I fly for free, so I'm planning to tour the US with my best friend n_n

Hmm... If I have a break from school, I'd like to give CAA a facelift. It's been planned for a while, but I don't think I'll have time in the immideate future.

:( So I guess I'll be studing and maybe take the wolf camping once or twice. ;)

If the Lord is willing and I am alive (XD), I'm going to counsel up at camp and get college details secured.


Yeah, that's right, I'm a party animal. :grin:
