    Worked on a our soon-to-be autorama show car, had my dads car throw a rod 14 days after a 6 year restoration, overheated 5 times at the woodward dream cruise, and had my computer crash every other day. I start in two days and have only two months of summer.

    My summer....
    June I went on a family road trip to New York, Boston, and Indianapolis for USGP Qualifying (If only I had known what was to happen!) I also worked as a carnie
    July I went on a church trip to Colorado, and I worked my ass off
    August I went to Montana on a college visit, worked a lot more and tried to soak up more summer.

    My highlights though:
    -Spiliting a White Castle Crave Case with two of my friends
    -USGP Qualifying
    -Going to Chicago Bears training camp and talking with some of my favorite players
    -And of course getting my 1,000th post here on UCP!


    This is very appropriate though, I start my senior year in two days.

    well summer hasn't started yet...not that summer and winter mean anything here... the only difference is that one has more rain. but anyway i went to new zealand and snapped myself snowboarding.

    my summer:

    one week of real vacation
    three weeks of holidays to Austria with my parents.
    4 weeks of intensive learning.atleast three hours a day, every day.i learned for a test i made today.this determines whetehr i can pass to next year in school.
    smoked about 50 packs of sigaretes or something...
    smoked a small bag of K2 worth € 20
    went out to get the K2 in Rotterdam.
    stayed with my aunt and uncle a few days, helping out in the garage and enjoying
    ran away from home
    enjoyed plenty off hangovers
    went to the beach once.the weather was terrible, otherwise i would have gone more.

    i think that is about it


    edit: K2 is the best weed on sale in the world

    Not much to be honest, chilled.

    Real vacation in the Czech Republic. (1 week)
    And 1 week training camp in Germany.

    My summer was utter crap. Lets see, I didn't really do anything but here are a few highlights of it anyways.

    - Played XBOX (Forza Motorsport and GTA: San Andreas)
    - Computer (mainly browsed around forums and played free games)
    - Watched t.v.
    - Went to a few friends houses... Actually got paid to leave my friends house a few times.
    - Went out to eat and to the movies alot with my family.
    - Got my drivers liscense.
    - Applyed to alot of jobs and haven't gotten a call back yet.

    I guess that wraps it up since I can't think of anything else. But summer ended for me a few days ago when school started and now I can't wait till winter vacation !

    We went sailing for two weeks and I went to Belgium for a few days with the orchestra. These were the biggest events.

    I didnt do that much, I had 3 weeks off, the weather kind of sucked this year and I didnt go on a vacation, I did mostly just going out drinking and gaming. Didnt go to the beach even this year, lets hope for a better summer next year. And last week I went to SAIL in Amsterdam, altho I didnt have to travel far for that because I work in the middle of Amsterdam.
