Summer Reflection

This summer has been fairly uneventful. When I say that, I don't mean that it's been a complete waste of time, but it's just different rom last summer

Last summer was one filled with memories. I went to leadership camp where I got to go camping for the firt time. I got to go see the 2009 induction to the baseball Hall of Fame. I had a great trip in Cooperstown. And I even got to go up to the cottage a couple of times with my friends.

This summer has been different. I've spent about 95% of it in Mississauga. The only event that I'll probaly remember is going downtown, for the time (at night).

This summer was one where I learnt a lot about myself and what I want to do with my life. I may not have gone anywhere, but I didn't need to. Now you guys are wondering "What exactly did Danielle Reid do this summer?"
(Even though I don't like posting lists on blogs, I will do it since I've done it before):
  • Discovered a passion for cooking. I never thought that I would be spending hours reading trough cookbooks, looking for recipes and actually enjoying it!
  • Found some great bands. This does seem like a rather small accomplishment, but I'm happy it happened. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IprgVNlFIqM This is one of the songs I found. It's by an amazing band callled The National.
  • Improved my friendships. Yes, I know this sounds wierd, but I didn't know how else to word it. This summer I opened up to some of m close friends and was able to trust them enough to tell them things that I haven;t told anyone else.
  • Started a blog! This is something that I've always wanted to do, and here I am. At the beginning of the summer I started this blog having really no idea what to do or say, and now I'm a pro at it (almost).
  • Figured out the answer to the question that many people ask themselves on a daily basis: what am I going to do with my life?
  • Starting watching MTV Live. It;'s an awesome show. I reccomend it to anyone with a sense of humour.

Other then that, I just fucked around pretty much.

I guess you could say that my Summer '10 was a self improvement summer. Your choice.
