Summer Resolutions

I have come to the conclusion that I do not take advantage of living in my great city.  In the summer there is so much to see and do and I really take it for granted.  For this reason I have made a list of things that I want to do this summer and here you go:

• Go downtown at least once a week, shopping, restaurants, the Old Port, what more can a girl ask for?
• Go back to salsa lessons-- I took salsa for a few months and I loved it, not really sure why I stopped...
• Go to the amusement park in the area.  I haven't been to an amusement park in years, I really like the thrill of roller coasters.
• Go to the water slides, fun, fun , fun
• Go to New York at least once, New York city has so much to do in the summer, Central Park , Broadway Shows, the MoMa, the Met, Canal Street, more shopping...
• Go to Niagra Falls to see my childhood friend perform in a one woman show.
• Read two books a week, at least one by a black author, if you have any suggestions, I would loveto hear them.
• Go to the gym twice a day....or at least try to.
• Do yoga once a week.  I am not crazy about yoga, I find it too slow.  I have given it a try in the past and noticed that it does improve my balance (in which I need a great deal of help) as well as my flexibility, so I will give it another try.  I really want to try HOT|YOGA.
• Fireworks competition once a week.  In summer there is always a fireworks competition downtown, twice a week a different country presents their fireworks, it is beautiful and a great way to spend a night out under the stars
• Just For Laughs Festival---go to the Nasty Show and the Ethnic show.  I love a good laugh, they say that humour can reduce stress and alot of other ailments.
• Go down to the Jazz Festival as much as possible, free music under the stars? LOVE IT! Last year Stevie wonder opened and this year it's Lionel Ritchie!
• Go to the movies every Tuesday (cheapy Tuesday 5$!)  Even if the movie sucks , hey its 5 BUCKS!
• More to come....

As the summer nears I will post this on the side bar and cross the activities off as I do them, YEAH SUMMER


Made it to the gym this morning, only had an hour so I had to make it snappy.  I did 30 minutes on the StairMaster and time flew by because I downloaded so new songs to my MP3 player.

Have a great day!
