Summer Time (/Winter time for all you weirdos south of the equator)

edited June 2010 in General
The semester is over! For most people anyway, I figure the high school members are still in school......

Anyone got any fun plans for the next few months? I know a few people are taking some pretty significant trips in a few weeks! So far I've got a trip planned for mid-August and other than that I'm going to spend the rest of my summer working and taking a class at the university.

I've also got a concert to go to in June!!!! Imogen Heap... I'm super excited.

    Meh, we get out in like 2 weeks, only have to suffer a bit longer.

    I WOULD go on vacation, if I wasn't dirt poor. As it is I guess I'll enjoy the summer at home (again), though my birthday is in August, HUAH!!!

    Hmmm. People going to South Dakota for some nice horse riding at some point...but I'll almost certainly stay home. It is rare that I get the chance to be left alone for a whole week.

    Then there's the Japan thing, but I already talked about that.

    Aaaaaand after that I don't know.

    I'm heading to the Outside Lands music festival with my family in early August. YAY! They had Beck and Radiohead and crap loads of other cool people last time, it was amazing.

    Very awesome. I think I'm going to look into attending Austin City Limits in October, I haven't been the past two years but I definitely want to go at some point while I'm still in Austin. I've only been to a relatively small music festival in Dallas once when I was in middle school, other than that I haven't really seen too many live shows. That's why I'm so excited for this concert in June-- it's the first one I've been to in YEARS!

    Woo only 5 days of Jr. High left for me! Then I have 4 more days of mandatory goofing off in the school building, and then I am foot loose and fancy free (and a high school student for realz).

    I'll be an assistant counselor at a local camp for half of June and most of July, and then I have a week to get ready for Japan before I go. All the while I'll be taking an online health class that I'll have to keep up with, so it'll be a busy summer.
    I will be attending no music events, how sad.

    I have a job. You damn kids get off my lawn.

    I assure you I'll be nowhere near China anytime soon. Thus I will stay quite clear of your lawn.

    Even I was taken aback when she said she was still in Junior High.

    Is this what being old feels like?? I've always been used to being the 'baby' of whatever social group I was in, I don't know what to think of this!!

    Technically I'm a high schooler, as I am in 9th grade. However, in our school district 9th grade is still in a Junior High building with 7th and 8th graders. 10th grade is just when we move to the actual high school building.

    That's still effin' baby school.

    Now now, though certain members may be younger than us old farts, we have to remember that they represent the future, and as long as they can manage their behavior in acceptable ways, we'll have to tolerate their jubilant shenanigans. Ah youth...

    No. Robots and spaceships represent our future. Young people represent things that should get the hell off our lawn!

    I'm going to be working, trying (probably unsuccessfully) to earn enough to go back to college.

    If you were born in the 90s, you are a baby.

    Oh come on, I was a few months off of the 80s!

    This was especially true in the early 90s.

    If this counts for you it should totally count for me too. You're only one month older than me!!

    But if it counts for you two, it may count in reverse for me; as I was born less than a year before the nineties, I would be considered born in the nineties and would thus be considered a baby. And I refuse to be considered a baby.

    Doesn't count for women, sorry.

    Wait.. if you weren't born in the 90s, why would that count in reverse for you? It means you would be born in the 80s, therefore you're not a baby. You're more like... an infant.

    He was born in '89. Essentially it'd be reverse for him because he was so close to being born in the nineties that he may as well have been and thus would be a "baby", which he does not wish to be.

    You're making it too difficult. Dustin, you were born in 89. This is not the 90s, thus you are not a baby. So, welcome to adulthood. Can I offer you a cigar?

    But I like making things difficult. Unnecessary difficulty makes the world go round! Either that or gravity acting as a centripetal force. I always get those two confused.

    But then again, simplicity allows me to keep my adult status, so I shall in this instance abandon my integrity and go with what is more convenient for me. Pass the smokes!

    I'm finished with all my classes forever! ...but I can't graduate till I've spent three quarters on co-op for companies related to my major. Um... anyone wanna hire me?

    On the bright side, I'm going to the Mets game tomorrow and they've just started a nice little winning streak.

    Not that I'm ANYONE that ANYONE would even THINK of asking to find a job from, BUT!!!

    What's your major?
