Do you guys want to share what is your plan for the summer prior to matriculation? Traveling overseas? Visiting friends? Working? Moving? Studying? Sleeping?:p

I'm taking a couple of weeks to hit some really great hiking spots and maybe some rafting then I'm moving to school a month early to get used to the new city (and work my way through the pile of books I want to read before med school).
 
You need to allow multiple choices! :laugh:

traveling (abroad and in US): check
slacking: check
moving: check

traveling in US - road trip + camping all over northeast
traveling overseas
sleeping
having fun
sleeping more
enjoying life
 
For now, I plan on sleeping late, sitting out by the pool and working on my tan, lifting weights and getting into great shape, reading much more of the NYTimes online than I get to at school, digging into a growing pile of interesting books, going out with friends, and generally taking it easy.

I'd also like to do some sort of traveling, but I'm curious--do ya'll usually go with friends, family, or alone? And if so, how do you decide on where you want to go? Traveling to a new country might be a bit too much for me right now (I just visited one over winter break), but a road trip through California's wine vineyards like in the movie Sideways may be a lot of fun!
