Procrastinating my life

So, I'm not only the first to post in June, but I'm also the first to post twice. Both, clearly, are things to brag about.

While we're on the subject of things not to brag about, I guess I should talk about how I've been spending my summer vacation. Every night, I watch "The O.C." (I've gotten through a season and a half since I've been home) until about 2:00am, when I set my alarm for 9:30am. Every morning, I wake up to the alarm and then I promptly set it to snooze. And then every five minutes until either 10:45 or 11:00am, I continue to press the snooze button until I finally decide to pull myself out of bed. Once I do that, I pull my bathing suit on and head outside to swim.

I've decided to swim 25 miles this summer, which I think will be really nice. It means I'll have to swim about 100 laps a day, which is strangely exciting to me. I love swimming laps - it's the time of the day during which I hear nothing but my own thoughts.

After swimming, I proceed to read for a few hours. I've gotten through a few books now - most importantly, I am rereading all 6 of the released Harry Potter books. Now, some might say it is somewhat obsessive to read these books for a fourth time, but I prefer the word "intense." I am now taking notes to predict what will happen in the 7th book in an organized manner.

No, I am not kidding.

If any of you would like to discuss said theories, I clearly do not have a life and you should probably call me to save me from myself.

Ok, I'm making myself out to sound much worse than I am. I have actually seen a few people. Mollie and I got together for lunch the other day, which was wonderful, and I visited Conn last night to have dinner with Rose and Katy Whitney, who are there to work the alumnai weekend. I stayed with my friend Will, which was wonderful. Of course, these Conn people reunions have been the highlights of my break. I have seen a bunch of friends from home, but I think I'm still mourning my college career too much to immerse myself in home life yet.

In happier news, I got accepted yesterday to the Production Assistant Training weekend at the place that wants to hire me for the Production Assistant job for the next year. It's the biggest step in getting this job, so I'm pretty excited for that.

MTV has also contacted me to hire me for a job. I kind of don't know what to do. Am I supposed to go to grad school this year or not? All of this future stuff is so intimidating. Can't I just continue to read Harry Potter, watch television series on DVD, tan by the pool and continue to pretend that the real world doesn't exist?

Miss you guys.

Kait, I totally know what you mean about loving laps! At camp, I lived for instructional swim and hated the days when we had free swim (all my friends thought I was crazy). Way to be wanted my multiple organizations and have the option of going to school--You will succeed in any location, and I have no doubt that you will decide which feels like the better choice for right now. Keep enjoying the pool, and I am pretty sure Seth and I are planning on meeting you somewhere for dinner on the 26th (with Allison and Kim, as well).
