Okay, so this list definitely got a little longer than I had initially intended, and I have a feeling I may not be able to get all of these activities accomplished. I always start daydreaming when I think about summer and have so many lofty ideas. (oops) However, summer is the perfect time to set goals for yourself and dream big! What is on your bucket list? I know mine doesn't need to be any longer than it already is, but I'm always looking for new, fun activities to do! Until next time,


xoxo,

  1. You've just given me so many ideas! I don't want this summer to be boring like all the rest. I'm definitely going to stargaze, visit an aquarium and I'm hoping to squeeze in a water park visit. Maybe early fall for that one! :)

  4. This all sounds very doable! Kayaking was so fun, except we went into these tunnels that had crabs that looked like spiders! Avoid those if you can lol :-)

  16. I've never tried it before, but my sister swears by it, so I figured I should give it a try!

  17. I should do one of these. I worry about thinking too much about all the things I can't really do, though, but I treated myself to a picnic in bed last week (basically just a salad, but I went for picnicky foods like sausage rolls lol) because I miss having them with my family on holidays. (The best thing about having a picnic in bed, of course, is that you don't have to worry about the bugs! XD) I hope you get to do that one, at least. They all look like they'll make for an epic summer!

    Out of curiosity, why did you put 2k16 instead of 2016? It's something I've come across before but I've no idea why. Obviously k stands for thousand, which I understand when it's saving on typing, but it doesn't in this case and I'm wondering what I'm missing out on. XD

    1. I never thought about a picnic in bed, but thats a great idea! The only bummer to actual picnics is the bugs, and having it indoors would definitely take care of that. But I write 2k16 as an aesthetic element. I like the way it looks and its common enough that people won't think it's a typo. Just something I've seen around and started using. :)

  18. There are a lot of great ideas on your list, at least you can never say or think you are bored. You have plenty to keep you busy!
