Jon Mclaughlin - Beautiful Disaster

I heard this song for the first time a couple weeks ago and it's been on repeat ever since. Check it out.

Summer Break!

So I'm officially on summer holidays from school. My original plan was to take four courses this summer, but my health had other ideas.

Although it's frustrating to put the courses off (and it was a huge hassle to do so), deep down I know I need the break. Just to catch up on sleep alone is reason enough.

So for the next month and a half I won't have a school agenda. I'll still have regular responsibilities with work and the radio show and stuff like that. But I'll be free from the heavy workload that consumes a lot of my time and I'll get to do the things that I really want to do. What are those things? Well...

I'd like to write more. Not a book (yet) or anything huge, but just put more thoughts down on paper.

I'd like to read more. When I'm in school I read so much during the day that when night comes around, I don't do very much if any. I've got a stack of books that are calling my name :)

And I'd like to switch rooms. This is something I've wanted to do for a while, but the timing wasn't there. But now I'm moving all my stuff downstairs and my "old" room will be turned into an office (woo hoo!). This I think will be a really good thing because I'll be able to separate my life a little more. Plus I'll have a space of my own for school/work/radio/writing, so it'll be easier to focus and do good work.

So those are my plans for this summer. What are yours?
