This summer

I've been reading Tuesdays with Morrie and although it is a cheesy kind of book, it has made me think about life and mortality in a different light. I re-read yesterday's post about my weekend this morning and it saddened me to think that this warm season is not immortal. We're just about into August and although it is the hottest month, it's also only a month away (or less) from September and therefore the harsh realities of school and the pursuit of a career in the "real world."

I won't let it get me down though. I have decided on a short but ambitious list of things I shall do before the end of the summer. They are not things I need to do, but rather things I would really love to do.

1: I will see a play - perhaps Waiting for Godot at the Soulpepper Theatre
2: I will sink my toes into the sand of a beach - any non-toxic beach
3: I will go to the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery - and experience Janet Cardiff's "Forty-Part Motet" and ride on John Kormeling's "Mobile Fun" ferris wheel
4: I will watch the sun rise
5: I will spend a day in Kensington Market - to shop (smartly), eat Empandas and relax

What do you want to do?
