head over heels

Updates here have been sporadic at best. My posts have trickled from once every few days to two or three times a month, and that’s when I have something to post. I have to say I am rather disappointed, about my lack of posts as well as the severe lack of content on the days I decide to update.

So let’s see how this post turns out…

Summer is finally here, the long awaited vacation time. I know for most people this is the three month period when we all try to find jobs so that we actually have money to spend when we go hang out. As for me, job hunting has had abysmal results. I can’t really say for sure whether it is due to the crappy economy or because of my lackluster attempts at searching. I think I’m going to go with a little bit of both. As much as I want, and need, the income I just don’t want to have to work. Summer used to be a time for hanging out and having fun, although it hasn’t been like that for me since the summer I turned 16. Not that I didn’t have fun, but I really wished that I had more time with friends rather than working my summer days away. And it’s been so long since I’ve been on vacation, I think I’m due for one in the next year or so.

Summer also means driving lessons for me. Yay! Aren’t you all just so excited to have me on the roads? I am only partially looking forward to that. I am impatient to get my license because I don’t like having to rely on other people if I need to get somewhere at school. Or relying on the buses, both Stony and Suffolk. But other than it being convenient I don’t really care for it now that I think about it. The more I think about driving the lazier I feel, but that may just my mindset right now due to my sleepiness. I had a lot of fun the one time I was in the driver’s seat, but that was only because I didn’t have to worry about any rules and could just do whatever I wanted. Hopefully I can do okay this summer and get that car up to school…

I had a lot of fun last summer. I’m looking forward to seeing how this summer turns out. So far, not too great. The lack of job and vacation prospects really dampens my spirits right now. The weather hasn’t been up to par either. I know Suki and I (amongst a whole bunch of other people) have been craving to go beaching for a while now. I’m hoping the weather catches up soon. And we work out the whole transportation thing when we do. But I’m gonna keep my fingers crossed for that. Beaching’s my favorite part of summer.
