Summer 2010 Plans - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

**Gerry** · 11th May 2010, 01:48 PM

So now that it's practically summer, at least for part of the world, what are everyone's plans? For me, I'm going to be taking some summer classes. No work for me since I'm a substitute teacher and classes won't be in session until August. I might also take a road trip with friends to Southern California.

11th May 2010, 01:52 PM

em well my summer is gonna be all work. got a massive credit card bill to pay so im looking at getting extra cash from a 2nd job. but im on holiday in a couple weeks and that will be spent in the garden.

xballetxbeautyx · 11th May 2010, 02:09 PM

I'm going to a weeklong dance intensive where I will take ballet, jazz, modern, African, and conditioning.

I'm taking tap, jazz, ballet, and hip-hop classes all summer long almost every night.

I'm going to a family reunion.

I'm going to be an islander in a production of South Pacific.

I'm also going to be in Grease.

I'm going to Colorado.

I'm (hopefully) going to see Melissa Etheridge in concert.

In other words, I'm going to be busy.

kettleoffish · 11th May 2010, 02:23 PM

Going to the Download festival, then to Germany with the family, then I'm working like a little bitch for the rest of the summer.

jazzrawr · 11th May 2010, 02:59 PM

Well, I'm going to be working a lot - probably a part time job for weekends and a full time job for days.
Other than that, no plans. Probably just partying.

AnneChaos · 11th May 2010, 03:29 PM

-Practice guitar and start learning piano

-Learn to cook properly xD
-Go on a trip (by car) to some countries here in Europe

**Chandra** · 11th May 2010, 03:58 PM

I'm hoping to go to Iceland!

Black Cat · 11th May 2010, 05:07 PM

Ideally I'd like to find a job, or volunteer at the local animal shelter.
I'd also like to get my driver's license (finally!) and possibly drive somewhere interesting. Maybe attend my first pride event.
Other than that I'm sure I'll just be hiding out in my room, avoiding fights with my wicked step father, baking for profit (or just for the hell of it), and daydreaming.

thevre · 11th May 2010, 06:18 PM

AFI/Green Day concert at some point.
Might bust out $200 bucks and go by my lonesome to see GaGa.

But apart from that... NOTHING. I plan on being the laziest piece of shit until I start college in the fall.

That sounds so cool!

I'm planning to take a French course, as well as help teach kids to read at the library and take an SAT prep course. I'm going to be teaching myself Hindi, philosophy, biology and chemistry.

Other than that, not much.

Étoile · 11th May 2010, 06:29 PM

-Get a job
-Go on a trip with my friends before we all go off to college
-Buy some new clothes for college
-Relax

That's it.

Brandford · 11th May 2010, 06:29 PM

Well I want to teach myself to swim at the pool but there are a bunch of cute life gaurds down there which makes it suck to take off my shirt in front of them and I tried this last summer and didn't get anywhere so I chances are I won't do it.

I also wanted to go to the gym and maybe get in shape before college but the chances of that happening are also slim. So chances are I'll spend my summer in my bed sleeping and watching tv, unless my mom was serious about that whole cruise thing that is.
