Technically, school actually let out for the summer a few weeks ago, but it feels like summer is just now starting for me. Compared to last summer (which involved me spending half of my vacation break touring Europe and the other half touring the rest of the U.S.) this summer is going to be pretty laid back and easy.

I recently got surgery on my neck (nothing major but, yuck, I hate surgery) so now I'm just chillaxing in my PJ's and talking to friends on the phone and on the computer all day. My friends are so sweet, doing whatever they can to make sure I'm comfortable while I'm recovering. A ton of my friends just came back from a school sponsered trip to Washington D.C., so we're probably going to have awelcome back party soon! I love parties so that should be awesome!

In about a month my family's going to take a well deserved vacation to the sunny beaches of Florida. So we're visiting Miami for a few days then Orlando to ride on all the fun rides at the theme parks and tour around Universal Orlando Studios. The last time I went I was seven, so I'm really looking forward to it!

Then we're heading back home, and a few weeks later we're off to Niagara Falls! I've never been there before, so I'mway excited! And if I have enough time, I might head down to California to visit a few friends in LA and Sacramento on my own! Yays!

And I've got a ton of things to look forward to this summer, like High School Musical 2 preimering in August (is anyone else uber ecstatic about the fact that Zac and Vanessa finally and officially hooked up this spring?!), Harry Potter (the book and the movie!) is coming out and the new season of one of my favorite shows ever, Degrassi: The Next Generation is starting this June!

Of course, some things are coming to an end this summer, like Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide, which ended just last weekend ! I loved that show to death! And the last Harry Potter book coming out this summer (and we'll finally find out whether J.K. Rowling decided to kill Harry off or not) and the last Pirates of the Caribbean movie, which I saw, cried over, and loved to death!

Anyway, tons to look forward to this summer and I'm all set to have a wonderful time! Here's to a great summer! Hope yours is just as fabulous as mine!
