yes, I know, kinda late for this one. but whatevs, I'm still writing it. time to look back on what was summer '10.
-May = chill. I legit did nothing, turned my brain off, spent time with the friends, but still kept busy with some volunteer stuff. (WOOT to ELITE 2010 for showing me that it is possible to run on 3 hours of sleep in a 72 hours time span, and that Red Bull shots are quite lethal.) May was the month where I could relax, catch up with the buddies, spend time with my best lady (and making time to dance the nigh away with her!), and well as to forget about second year and be stoked for the third year. a lot of things were still up in the air (not knowing my faculty/ specialization for this year, how many classes I would take, the usual).
-June/July = part chill/ part FML I HATE SUMMER SCHOOL!! half of June was again relaxing, did some research of job opportunities for the summer, and what not. then WABAMMMM, summer school hit me on June 18th. 3 weeks compressed course, followed by a typical 6 week course = not much of a social life at all. with school + Frosh stuff + other volunteer shizz, seeing the friends was non existant..which was disappointing. seeing Rach + the boys once in more than a month = TORTURE! but hey, I got through it, did pretty well in FNH 250, and survived ECON 101.
-August = busy/chaotic. a week long trip to the states right after summer school ended, followed by Frosh hecticness before and after the trip, then a month long job with GALA, while trying to fit in friends whenever I was doing nothing made August stupidly busy. on top of that, trying to all of a sudden get back into full time school mode, buying books, re-organziing my schedule and realizing residence wouldn't be an option this term made August quite overwhelming. but the bests allowed me to survive, along with my fam having my back. I legit would've gone insane last month if I didn't see the crew at least a couple times a week. GALA was an amazing experience, met tons of fantastics students and SD staff, and learned so much when it comes to leadership and event planning skills. I felt like being in Students' Council all over again (with a bit less drama, and actually getting paid for my work!)
all in all, Summer '10 had to be my best summer so far. I spent time with people who actually mattered, avoided drama altogether, was productive in more ways than one, and kept myself busy throughout the 4 months. of course I didn't want it to end, but hey, a new school year means more opportunities, more good times, and more memories. this year will be full of new hcanges, new people, a new faculty/specialization, jsut a lot of 'new' in general. am I scared? yes. am I stoked? of course! I'm just excited what third year will bring!
