10 THINGS I’M GOING TO DO THIS SUMMER

Over the past 3 months I’ve made some pretty drastic changes to my diet; cutting out junk food completely and replacing it with good, wholesome food. Although it’s been really challenging at times, I really do feel so much better for it. That and lots of running is what I’ll be doing this summer.

I have really fair skin; so in order for me to actually tan, I have to endure the lobster-like qualities of sunburn first, before it turns into colour. And even then it’s hardly noticeable. That, and UV rays will kill you. So this year I’m faking it. Self-tanner and bronzer are my new best friends.

I want to take more photos at parties and gatherings, as much as I want to take more photos of the small stuff like driving around in the car doing nothing in particular. These are the years I want to remember.

I’ve been meaning to re-decorate my bedroom for a while now, but this time I’m actually going to do it. I want to re-do my walls entirely, as well as make things a little more organised and accessible.

The inner consumer within me has been unleashed, all I can think about is shopping. This summer I really want to hit the op- shops and vintage stores. I’ve also recently discovered some pretty amazing online stores, so they’re definitely on the list as well. I want to buy so many things! Clothes mainly though and some books.

I have such a soft spot for trashy reality tv; The Hills, The City, Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Jerseylicious, just to name a few. This summer I’m planning on chilling out to some of these gems. It’s so bad it’s good, right?

I don’t know who I’m going with, and I don’t know where I’m going; but at some point this summer I’d love to get away for a couple of days.

I really want to get back into playing the piano, just for fun. I’ve set myself the task of learning how to play some songs, so this summer I plan on accomplishing this!

I literally have half a wardrobe full of clothes I either don’t wear anymore or don’t fit me, so I figure selling them online is the perfect way for me to not only get rid of them, but to make some extra dollars as well.

I want to swim in the ocean and lie around in the grass, just soaking up life. I want to run through fields and have midnight adventures.

What are your plans for summer?
