mugwump Posted August 27 Report Share Posted August 27 So It’s almost over…Summer of 2003 passed you bybefore you knew it. Fall’s around the corner (My personal favorite season).My summer was amazing! Probably the best one I’ve had in years.So many great nights in sooo many beautiful places all over Europe. Met great people and healed manymaaaaany wounds that I thought would never stop bleeding. All in all I think this summer turned me back to the person I once was so many years ago…A person that almost drowned in his own head almost one year ago.SO here I am! And I have so many plans for Fall! Art projects (Animated shorts done in Flash) A NEW Short story I’m working on, A screen play for an indie film I want to put together, More trips (India, Japan, London,NY and Mexico) and a new group of friends from the Italian nightlife that want to get me more involved in bringing NYC talent as well as getting me to be a full time promoter..I 'm also getting better at spinning and have even been offered a one off at an old 80’s pub (Where I plan to ride through EBMinto techno and electro when I get the chance)Day time I will be spending with my father and his company learning how a business works and in the long run I want to go back to school after the New Years and get my Masters..All in all life is good..So now I ask YOU:WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FORTHE FALL SEASON? HOW WAS YOUR SUMMER? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrsygrl Posted August 27 Report Share Posted August 27 My summer was aight...actually no that is a lie! I spent the entire first half of my summer studying for the Series 7...which I failed by 2 damn questions....(that alone ruined my summer)...So I took like 3 weeks off after that to get hammered! But still didn't do to much - and now I am getting back into study mode again. My next test is September 15th!!I am definatly looking forward to passing this time (otherwise, I lose my job) - but after that I plan on making it one hell a fall season to make up for the summer (which will be impossible!)
