So far, I&#8217;ve gone up to the cottage with my brother, mom, and a friend of mine, but here are the other things I plan on doing over the summer break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I mentioned before that I went up to the cottage; which was around a week ago. While we were there, my mom helped me record some video for the song, &#8220;O Canada&#8221; which I recorded the audio for when we got back. After I mixed the audio and posted it on Instagram for Canada Day I was done with the project, but it was pretty fun. If we ever go back to the cottage another time over the summer I might try to record something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m also going to try writing some more guitar arrangements for some other songs because the song I&#8217;m currently trying to write with my music teacher is coming close to completion. After that, I&#8217;ll have some more time to look at some other songs because I have a few arrangements that I&#8217;m not really happy with or haven&#8217;t finished. I also want to try out some new songs too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing I plan on doing is completing most of my volunteer hours. In our education system, every student needs a minimum of 40 hours of volunteering for a nonprofit and registered organization before you graduate from high school. You are able to spend time volunteering anytime throughout your four years in high school or even after, but I plan on getting most of my high school hours done this summer to get them over with. However, if something else interesting comes up later on I might volunteer for it anyways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, I want to spend a lot of time playing games. Since school is out I can even play on weekdays now. I&#8217;ve still been playing osu! after a whole year as well as CS:GO, but recently my friends and I have started playing a lot more Minecraft again. We&#8217;re spending time checking out all the new features that were added since the last time we played. I think one of the most fun things we&#8217;ve done is spending time rebuilding and working on different types of in-game projects that we used to make. One more game I&#8217;ve been getting into is League of Legends which is a really popular game. I&#8217;d already played it a little bit before a long time ago, but now my friends are trying to get me into it. Even though I&#8217;m really bad, I&#8217;m still having fun playing with the rest of my friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, that&#8217;s almost everything I&#8217;m doing this summer besides following the new 2019 Summer anime season. Maybe if I feel like it, I&#8217;ll write about all of the different shows near the end of the summer, but those are all my plans for this year&#8217;s summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>School ended around a week ago, and summer has already started.
