what, no fat lady singing?

I’ve started writing this post 6 times since yesterday and every time I deleted everything I had typed and gave up. Yesterday I simply assumed I was tired but what about today? I couldn’t be tired today as I slept for more than 9 hours.

So after giving up I kept switching to doing something completely different just to take my mind off of it. I cleaned, I watched tv, I listened to ska punk (it’s scaring me that I’ve started listening to it again) and finally started reading a new book. However, reading a book shouldn’t be this much work. I read the first 3 pages so many times which made me want to throw the book out the window and I’m sure the book is fine so I refrained. That’s when I started thinking that I should go buy a few new books. I could have a look on Amazon, pick some with good reviews and then go out and buy them locally. Then my best friend showed up on IM and after a short chat she ended the conversation with “It’s summertime!”.

That’s when it hit me. I’m actually done. I can have a summer. Like when I was in school. I have no more Uni to worry about for at least a month (which is when the results will be out). I have no commitments and no responsibilities. I am free.

My mind has been all over the place because there is nothing I *have* to do. The possibilities are endless. I can do anything and nothing. My brain has been overloaded! So here it is, a mediocre post because that’s all my brain has the capacity for right now.

  1. Do nothing.

  2. Do what I did when I got out of my courses. Drive out into the middle of nowhere and burn every school related thing you don’t specifically need for the next semester.

  3. Having nothing to do must be wonderful. Enjoy it while you can, for this too, shall pass…. :sad:
    Better yet, do whatever YOU want. Not what you need to do, not what everyone else thinks you should do. Just do what You want for a while. The opportunity rarely comes around, just enjoy…

  5. Dave2 :: I might do just that! Thanks ;)

    Abraxus :: I wish I could do that but I’m a pack rat! Besides I’ve paid too much for the books I bought to just burn them. lol

    Jodi :: It is good and bad at the same time. It’s good because you have no worries (hakuna matata and whatnot) and bad because you will get bored unless you find something to do. I know I want to make the most of this summer. :grin:

    Danalyn :: Thanks! I don’t think I’ll make it this year but you never know. I might just say fuck it and fly over. :lol:

  6. You could change your masthead to read “battling my insomnia 9 hours at a time”….or go visit your mum who came to take care of you while she had a brain tumor when, you had an hysterical drama-queen meltdown. (How’s that for guilt trip?). It’s great that you’re in Brighton. There must be a million interesting things to do and see there. I’ve wanted to go there just from seeing different things and places used in settings and backgrounds on BBC stuff that we’ve imported. Go to the beach or paddle on over and we’ll go to the beach, here.

  7. Etienne :: Ha! I actually just changed my masthead and I *am* going to see my mum in a few days and will possibly even spend the whole summer with my parents. Also, don’t worry, the guilt has already eaten my insides so there’s not much you could say that would make me feel worse. Where do you live? You should definitely visit Brighton when you get the chance it’s a lovely place and very good for a holiday too.

  8. I felt the same way when I got out of school last year. I went with the “do nothing” route and am still doing it, lol.

  9. melanie :: Sounds like a good plan to me. Although I was hoping to do something big this summer I don’t think I will. I just need to spend a lot of time doing nothing but just relaxing and being around my mum.
