Retiring But Not Retiring

I remember my writing teacher saying that the retired are a busy bunch. Not with work, but with all the things they've been meaning to do, but never had much time for. Most of my summers I would spend dozing and lazing around, but this summer, I guess I'll be like a retired woman (irony: I'm only starting [or rather, planning to start] in the workforce) in a sense: I have so much that I want to do. I guess here, I'll post some of my plans for those two months... Not that anybody really cares. Why do I always type as if people actually read my blog?

-Go to the Vancouver Art Gallery to see that surrealist exhibition.

-Try ramen (no, not the instant kind, the REAL kind), wheatgrass juice/smoothie, ginger beer (it HAS to be better than root beer....), and chocolate chili chai tea (from DAVIDsTEA. I love their selection).

-Go to Metrotown, the Crystal Mall, a record store, and an Apple Store. :D

-Get some job experience.

-Cook and bake more (pasta sauce, fasolada, samosas....)
-Eat at TacoTime. (Lol, not that special? Well, there's a TacoTime where I live, and we have less of Taco Bells in BC, yet I've never tried TacoTime...ever.)

-Practice oil painting.

-Work on all those painting/drawing/etc. ideas I had been too lazy to touch.

-Process all those RAW photos in my hard drive (and despite the flexibility of RAW files, I think I should switch to shooting in JPEG).

-Get an external hard drive.

-I'd love to get a fifteen-inch MacBook Pro, but I doubt that'll happen. (Yes, I'm an Apple whore.)

-NOT BE A HERMIT.
