Summer 2015

Let’s face it…whether you’re still a student or you’re out in the real world, the arrival of summer is pretty sweet. There’s so much fun and anticipation surrounding a new season, at least for me. I love to make plans and enjoy seasonal activities! This summer, I have plans to travel to Nashville, Tennessee and Wildwood, New Jersey. Other than that, I will be working and taking summer classes. But, I have to have a little fun each day…so I made a summer bucket list! If there ever comes a time where I wake up and think, I have nothing to do today, I’ll refer back to this blog post. 😉
