Happy Summer Everyone. I hope you are all going to have the best summer ever. Maybe you are going on a holiday or maybe you just have to work all summer, just like me. Even though I have to work all summer, I plan to have the best summer. Of course, this is just a small part of the things I want to do this summer. I also have other plans like buying magazines for the first time in forever. I used to buy magazines on vacation. I want to do that again to get those summer vibes. I also want to do other little things like getting a milkshake and spending more time outside.
Things I want to do this Summer
Reading
What is better than reading during summer? Spending a few hours in a different world is just perfect, especially when you are not going on a vacation. Obviously I am going to read romance novels. That is what I read most of the time because it makes me happy and romance is obviously the best genre to read in summer. It was hard to make a list because my wishlist is so long.
The list of books I want to read this summer:
- Just for the summer – Abby Jimenez
- Funny Story – Emily Henry
- Not in love – Ali Hazelwood
- The Dixon Rule – Elle Kennedy
- How to End a Love Story – Yulin Kuang
- The Rom-Commers – Katherine Center
- Out on a limb – Hannah Bonam-Young
- Hate Mail – Donna Marchetti
- Wildfire – Hannah Grace
- Magnolia Parks – Jessa Hastings
- The Match – Sarah Adams
- The Pumpkin Spice Cafe – Laurie Gilmore
- The Fake Mate – Lana Ferguson
- Cross the Line – Simone Soltani
- Ready Or Not – Cara Bastone
- Happy Medium – Sarah Adler
- Finding Mr. Write – Kelley Armstrong
Thrift Shopping
I just love thrift shopping. You never know what you are going to find. I don’t mind shopping for a new outfit at the thrift store. Recently I got a CD player (how old school of me) and I started to look around at thrift stores for CDs.
Baking & Trying New Recipes
The other day, I also got new cook books with the gift cards my employee gave to me. This summer, I want to start trying new recipes and start baking again. I just love creating something delicious that I can eat later. I am thinking about making Rocky Road, Cake, and maybe Pizza Bagels.
Learn how to play the Ukelele
I also got a ukelele recently at the thrift store and it was one of those things on my wishlist. But now I have one and I have to learn how to play one. I hope that I can play at least one easy song by the end of the summer.
Get a stronger body and eat healthier
Okay, I can’t complain. My health is already pretty good. It is more that I ate a lot of junk food in the last couple of months and I just want to eat healthier and make better food choices again. I mean, there is nothing wrong with a milkshake every now and then. But it is more that I ate junk food every single day. I want to put more vitamins and minerals into my body. I also want to get a stronger body, especially a stronger upper body. My legs are pretty strong, I think. I ride my bike every single day to work. But I want to see more muscles in my upper body. I also want to walk more often. On the weekends I am pretty lazy and I think
Write a book
I already started writing, but I am one of those people who starts something and never finish it. That is something I would like to change. I don’t have to finish the book, but it would be great if I could write 50% or something.
These are the things I want to do this summer, even though I am not going on vacation. Do you have plans for the summer? Are you going on vacation or are you
