Summer break is right around the corner and I wanted to share my plans for my two-month vacation. So far, from what I know is my family and I are going to the cottage for a few days right after school ends. After that, I have to study for my driver’s license and then finish my photo project. But what then? So here is a list of what I want to do over the summer.
During my time at the cottage, I will likely get bored. Don’t get me wrong, fishing is fun along with all the otheractivites at the cottage. However, I don’t want to constantly be in the sun. My skin is tanned enough. Therefore, this would be a great opportunity to catch up on my reading. I just purchased several books and I wanted to take my time reading them. Instead of cramming them like I normally do during normal weeks, I want to spread out my reading a bit. Maybe read two different books at a time to mix it up a bit. But as much as I like reading, I also still like my electronic devices. So, I will likely also bring my Switch. Unlike my phone, I have many more games on my Switch that don’t need any internet. This will be a good opportunity to finish Pokemon Let’s GO Eevee and maybe make some progress on MHGU. I might even get one of the games that I talked about in my last blog. Never the less, I will have a lot of things to do when I’m at the cottage.
After I get back home though, I will likely have to study. Not only for the driver’s test but for math as well since my parents got me a tutor. However, in between my study sessions, I would still like to have my fun. In the end, I will likely end up in my room reading like I normally do. However, if I have time I would like to make some progress on a personal project I’ve been working since last September. It’s been moving rather slowly since the start of the second semester and I would like to get it back on track. Other than those two activities, I would also like to get on my PC more often. Lately, I’ve found my computer less and less, only getting on to play a round of Tetris. Perhaps I will finally start a new game of Skyrim or Fallout.
Finally, any summer plan wouldn’t be complete without a few goals. Like I said before I want to work on my personal project and finish that photo request, but I also want to start a few new projects. Lately, I have seen a few high-quality 3d animations on youtube, especially by a channel called minusT. Along with the fact I realized it will be impossible for me to get anywhere with just programming alone, I wanted to try my hand in 3d modeling and making animation. I think it will be an asset that I’m already interested in this topic in general. Besides 3d modeling, I also wanted to try making a game using C#. Although this will likely fall to the sidelines when compared to 3d modeling. Still, I believe refreshing myself for the programming language they’ll use in grade 11 computer science will be an asset, even if I might not get the course.
In the end, it seems I won’t be bored during my summer break. I have a lot of things to get done and things to do. From playing games to prepping myself for grade 11, I’m sure I will be busy. I just hope I have time to get all of this done.
