First of all: If you don't know what
estival means, you should. It comes from ESTIVUS (Latin for summer) and means relating to summer. There, now you know.
Anyway, It has come to my attention that I have been slacking in my blogly duties. At first I thought:
Maybe it's time for me to get a new duty. But instead, I'm going to try to resume my blogging.
So..... SUMMER! I finished finals last week, grades have been posted, so now I have sweet, sweet freedom. Well, it's almost freedom. I'll be working at Rec/RegWhat shall I do with this new-found free-time? Here are some of the goals I've made for my summer:
- Trip to Seattle - Okay, so this one isn't so much a goal as a plan, but I will be visiting Seattle from May 8-16. Let me know in your comments if you have any suggestions for activities.
- Couch-to-5k - If you've not heard of C25k, you should educate yourself here. I don't have a specific 5k race in mind yet, but I'd like to train throughout the summer and run a 5k sometime around August. Also, please check out this inspirational video. I'm pretty sure this will be me at the end of the summer.
- Camping - I bought a tent, tarp, sleeping bag and pad last yearand they were unloved and unused. Not this summer! Hopefully I can incorporate some hiking and biking into these camping trips.
- Athletic Activity - Exercise every day. C25K is three days a week (MWF). I've got a lovely pool, lots of biking and hiking trails, and (si Dios quiere) LOTS of sun.
- Photography - I haven't used my lovely camera a whole lot since Spain, so I'm going to start looking for photographic opportunities.
That's about all I've got for now. Here are some photos that I found that are inspiring me to have the best summer ever!
