The Summer Reading Blues

Schools out and all you can think about is avoiding thinking about doing your summer reading. You spend every waking hour of summer on myspace, facebook, swimming, telling your mom your bored, and being plain lazy. You know you should do your summer reading, but there is always something better to do. If your bored why don't you stop nagging your mom and just go read?I bet you she has asked about it, so why not surprise her by telling her it's done? Instead of sleeping in until twelve, try getting out of bed at ten, and dedicate those two hours to your reading. You'll be done and you won't even think about cracking open spark notes next time you're in Barnes and Noble. Why stress yourself out during your precious summer? Make a game plan and stick to it. You'll be happy you did.

While you're up make yourself a proper breakfast like the one at the top of the page because when you get up at twelve breakfast isn't breakfast, it's lunch.
