Here Comes My 2009 Summer Break

With the completion of the in-class research and learning object design, now here comes my first summer break since my arrival in Van last year.

Comparing with my previous two semesters, both of which were overwhelmed by three courses per semester, this semester is obviously less overwhelming to me. At least, I only took two courses this semester, and I don't have any part-time job, which I was disappointed with. Anyways, I lead a more relaxed and healthier life this semester. I really enjoy it.

I'm looking forward to my summer break, with some excitement and some anxiety at the same time. I have some fabulous schedules, going around to different places, having fun hanging around with people, and learning new things. Yet I have a very specific goal that I need to realize during this summer break, or maybe, more precisely, from summer break until the end of this November. It's my Comprehensive Exam. I finally decided to stick to my original admission, Master of Education, though I seemed to spend lots of time figuring this out. Yet I don't think it's a waste of time, 'cause it always takes some time to figure things out, especially when it is your future that you are exploring.

Regarding the comps, I make up mind that I will work on the assigned readings and English composition during this coming summer break. This is no easy task, for I know I am always a procrastinator. Yet it can be an easy task, as long as I am persistent and diligent enough. I know I CAN AND WILL MAKE IT.

Here's the list of what I'm going to do during my summer break:
1.preparing comps (reading & writing)
2.CLCS volunteering / having fun and going around
3.exercise (gym & swimming)
4.finding a job
5.MS Bike Tour Route Marshal Volunteer
6.Graduate Orientation Volunteer
7.English speaking and listening
8.AIESEC

Ready to begin, my summer break!
