To my dear reader,<\/p>\n

With graduation one day away, I am coming to see that I have one real summer \u2013 from now to mid-August \u2013 to do whatever I please with. That isn\u2019t to say one real summer to waste time \u2013 on the contrary, once I start really working, it\u2019s more likely that I\u2019ll waste my free time than now when I can put all my free time to good use. Therefore, below are ten things of priority for me to make happen in the next three months.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Play the video game Oblivion<\/em> \u2013 This is the prequel to the video game Skryim<\/em>, which my sister Hannah and I played sporadically across nine months together. Since the game is older, the graphics will probably be awful. I\u2019m so excited. THIS IS SO IMPORTANT.<\/li>\n
  2. Make DwolfMakesMusic, <\/em>my Youtube channel and Soundcloud Page for my original music, look professional \u2013 That shit is a hot mess.<\/li>\n
  3. Find a job for when I move back up to Tacoma in mid-August \u2013 I hear that\u2019s important, although then again, I hear a lot of things.<\/li>\n
  4. Cook something interesting and new twice a week for two months \u2013 If you read the description in my blogger profile, I describe myself as a \u201cmediocre chef.\u201d It\u2019s pretty true. Let\u2019s change that.<\/li>\n
  5. Watch the new season of the ABC Family drama The Fosters <\/em>\u2013 Five days ago, freshman Ivin Yu starting watching this in the basement of my house and across the next four days, about fifteen people could be found at any given moment in the basement watching with (or without) him. The Fosters <\/em>is love. The Fosters <\/em>is life.<\/li>\n
  6. Go to some sort of LGBTQI event out there in the real world \u2013 I\u2019ve been slacking in this department for the past twenty-one years. Better late than never, right?<\/li>\n
  7. Go beat up North Carolina governor Pat McCrory \u2013 Patrick, if you didn\u2019t read my last post about you (http:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/whatwedo\/2016\/04\/10\/an-open-letter-to-pat-mccrory\/<\/a>), you really should do so. And then you should run, because you\u2019re in for a world of hurt.<\/li>\n
  8. Read Cathrynne M. Valente\u2019s The Girl Who Raced Fairyland All the Way Home<\/em> \u2013This is the last book in her Fairyland <\/em>series, of which I read the first at the end of my freshman year. They guided me through college, and will thus guide me away.<\/li>\n
  9. Use my dog as a pillow – This might be more important than Oblivion. <\/em>Unsure.<\/li>\n
  10. Start finding another way to get my writing out in the big, bad world \u2013 I do, after all, only have one more blog for the University after this.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    With all due respect,<\/p>\n
