Starting this thread because I enjoyed looking through last year's and I haven't seen one yet for this year.. and I'm super curious to hear what everyone's plans are!
My plans for the summer include lots of traveling! I'm fortunate enough to have a sister that plays travel softball and a dad who coaches her team and wants my help, so by tagging along I'll get to go to Niagra Falls, Chicago, Denver, and somewhere in NJ (not sure where, but hoping it's close to NYC as I've never been there) all mostly paid for! Of course, these aren't exactly the ideal vacations considering my whole trip revolves around their game schedule, but there's always a little downtime to explore and be a tourist! It has also been awhile since I've gotten the chance to be crafty and make stuff, so I'm thinking about maybe doing some fun, inexpensive pinterest-DIY stuff to make whatever rental house I move into a little more home-y. Other than that I will be doing a lot of hiking with my dog, and working a little to save up some extra money. I'm just SO relieved I don't have to spend any more time carefully planning how to improve my application for the next cycle!
Also - don't yell at me - but I wanted to see if there is anyone out there that actually would recommend looking over any materials before starting? I know the general advice is not to do anything like that.. but I didn't get in on my first try so I've been out of school for about a year now, and I'm almost getting to the point where I WISH I had something to study! (I totally know I'm going to regret saying that once I actually get to vet school.... haha)
