I have my cousin's wedding in the south of France in August. May make it a little road trip down to Andorra then back up to Amsterdam too.
In September I have a powerlifting competition, so will be training hard for that too.
Another mission, the powers have called me away. Another chance to carry the colours again. My motivation, an oath I've sworn to defend. To win the honour of coming back home again.
Planning a vacation with the wife and my brother and his wife. We want to get a hotel room and the next day go spend the day at a Ren Fest. OTher then that, lots of grilling, and lots of family time
Look for work; fight depression; ultimately fail and spend it sleeping my troubles away.
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

"You need not fear us, unless you are a dark heart, a vile one who preys on the innocent; I promise, you can’t hide forever in the empty darkness, for we will hunt you down like the animals you are, and pull you into the very bowels of hell." Iron - Within Temptation
Get a job, go on a cross country road trip to seattle with a friend, visit another friend in Cape Cod (regularly), go the shore (regularly), visit family in the Dominican Republic for a week in July, I think that covers the important bits

As I'm too skint to afford a holiday this year (about the fourth year running by my count now) it'll probably be me getting a job and fixing up a date or two with whatever women I know who haven't buggered off to Benidorm to escape the Scottish summer (or winter to you foreigners). Aside from that I've been roped into working off my free time doing some charity work (least most of the kids are usually complete brats). So yeah, same as last summer I guess. ^^
...Oh yeah, and I still have half a guard army to get through converting...but I guess that can wait a few more monthes to be finished.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

Go to Wal Mart, you'll see plenty of weird.

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do
I'm spending your sumer living through an Australian winter.
Move house.
Start at a new medical practice.
Get my exam results and celebrate (I partied on with a large chocolate Mcdonald's thickshake last round of results).
Sister's wedding.
Be awesome.
Save money by not buying GW products so that I can go to Adepticon next year.

Being art 'teacher' and counselor at a summer camp
visiting family in California
Gonna try to get my first game (and hopefully more) of Warhammer 40k in
I'm going to Origins (second time) and Gen-Con (first time) as a guest/roadie/hanger-on with Armorcast.
I'm working, dieting and working out (a little bit), and thinking about a vacation.
I'm going to slowly dig out from the backlog of unpainted or partially painted minis by a three pronged attack: Don't buy anything new, Sell stuff I'll never get to, and Paint more.
So if anybody is looking for metal Catachans (~2000pts of infantry), OOP Chaos terminators (50+ of 'em), or FOW US armored rifles... let me know!
Serious question. when you say 'move house', you mean move from one to another, not actually relocating the one you have,right?
I know that sounds like a possibly crazy question, but i've seen it happen.
and good luck on the move/new practice/exam results!

Hmmmm, really depends how my work probation goes for the next two weeks.
If, in 14 days time, I am still employed by my school, GRAVY TIME! My plans will then include:
-A camping/hiking trip around the lake and peak districts of england
-Mantic undead, Maelstrom Banebeasts, finishing my WoC -Long trip home to Ireland, preparing for our convention in september
If however, they choose not to renew my contract, I expect it'll be:
-Apply for unemployment benefit
-Frantically look for work for next term (most likely in some sort of nuclear wasteland school or subbing (urgh))
-Swear a lot
-Eat noodles and beans.
Going out with friends, get wasted with said friends, spend a lot of time with my girlfriend, go to (rock) festivals, get drunk again, do some kareoke while drunk,... In other words, I will have fun. Fun as in, THE STUFF YOU CAN'T DO BECAUSE OF SCHOOL.
