well, my plan this summer is to get a summer job and earn funds for myself. i had a sudden interest in money lately and i realized i haven't saved much. my efforts were put to vain when i joined mylot before because of e-gold. well that was sad alright. anyway, another plan was to go off to a beach where i can see the sunset and take pictures to harness my amateur photography skills. i also plan to take my online business full-time since i have no work to do by that date. well how about you? what are your plans for this summer? do you intend to frolick at the beach too? or earn money for your funds like me? :] i'd love to hear your answers!

If I can get ahold of enough money, I would love to take classes this summer. I've been away from college for almost three years now, and I definitely miss it. I'm thinking a nice psychology class, a sociology class, and maybe a literature class, if I can swing it. I might even take a math class, if I have to. Man, am I a geek or what?

wow, that's just so much of what you plan! i hope you could fulfill at least one! one of my courses that i would like to take is psychology since i am fascinated with how humans think. besides, it could give you the potential to read between the lines! that would be awesome!

Actually, psychology is my major, just for those reasons. I love how the human mind works, and I love finding out about people, and I love helping someone, so it's the perfect major for me. ^_^

bantayan island, ogtong - northern part of cebu... very nice beaches.. better than boracay, its unadulterated and very clean.. lots of fish as well.
thats a very nice plan...^_^ well.. for me.. i gotta go fishing and swimming, another adventure^_^ i like to finish my whole questing every summer.. and as well, like you.. do practice more and collect photos.. since i always have that collection where i take few shots of every place i got to.. i also plan to visit my bestfriends and take them here at my home.. cook for them and have fun, i miss the times where im always at service and care for them.. well good to you^_^ and take care^_^

wow, this plan of yours is a great thing. i've also noticed you're from my country too, but in cebu. anyway, fishing has never been in my system though i'd like to try that out. and i suddenly missed my best friend when you mentioned you're going to visit yours. that's such a great thing to do! same here, take care and good luck with your summer plans! by the way, have you been paid by MyLot already? i'd like to know since i just returned from my hibernation mode because last year, it isn't getting me anywhere.

well I have my businesses and then I have my kids. I know already that my older daughters school will be cut in half so that means I have her for more hours than before. That will be hard for me. Although I am hoping that in two years when both are in school full time (My younger will be at least in full time preschool) I will not have to have any sort of babysitting for them at all. Right now as an independent agent I am just hoping to start making some money so I can get into a routine. I am hoping that I can get my hours the way I want them so I can really take hold of things and feel like I am doing right by my family. Mylot and others have been helpful in the fact that it has given me some extra money to put into my paypal and that is always helpful. I also have a huge list of ebay items up for sale so I am cleaning out my house and hopefully getting rid of things. I have to go through more boxes of crap though and look through it all and see what else I need to get rid of. I did a huge overhaul after christmas but there is always more to do.

It's best that you do clean the house by selling items which aren't being used for a very long time. Right now, I am selling things on Multiply.com which is getting me through at least and I have saved funds. I salute you for being so resourceful when it comes to money! Good luck on your summer vacation! I wish you the best!

good that you have winter there. unluckily, my country doesn't offer the same weather conditions like yours. we are a tropical country located somewhere in the Pacific. but i love it here, the climate is good and there are palm trees which are romantic staples by afternoon. we also boast our beautiful beaches to which foreign tourists are attracted to. if you want, you could visit it yourself this summer if you've got nothing to do!

I plan to do a little of both. I have a few freelance jobs that I will be doing this summer, since I have my summers off as a teacher. I would love to take a vacation, and of course, spend lots of time with my little one. I would really like to finish and publish at least one of the many things I am writing. I know that mylot will never make me rich.

I'd like to get a job this summer because I really need one. Problem is, I apply for jobs, I don't get hired and it's kind of annoying, well actually rather annoying. I'm about ready to take a campus job during school that way I'll have something better to go on when it comes to getting a job cause no one at home really wants to hire me which gets rather old. Other than trying to get a job, I don't really have any summer plans. Probably take a few online classes though.

I am going on a vacation this summer. My cell phone company was giving away plane tickets if you switched to this my faves where you choose 5 people and you can call them for free anytime of the day. So we switched and as long as we dont have a past due balance at the end of march we get 2 free plane tickets (cuz I have a family plan with 2 people on it) You get to choose from 10 locations in the USA and I we choose orlando, FL. We only have to pay the fees and taxes that come with the plane ticket and I figured it out it should be 150 dollars for just the 2 tickets. We plan on taking the trip sometime in may or june.

I do not have any specific plan yet. Since I am working now, I think I have to plan ahead of time so that I could file my leave. My team is planning to go to a beach as our team building activity. My friends are also planning to visit another beach. If none of these would happen, I guess I might just stay home and ask my family to come over this summer so that I could spend time with them. My family and I could have simple bonding activities like going to the mall and eating out together. Not to forget, my birthday is a summer month. Most of the time, I celebrate it with my closest friends and my family.

wow, i sure hope you could do them all. and i noticed you're also pinay! wow, have you been paid in doing this mylot thingy? if so, then how much and by what means? anywho, it's nice that you could go down the beach with your colleagues and friends - a very good choice to unwind. although being at home is also a good thing because you get to relax thoroughly in your crib. happy summer! only 2 months to go and it's before you! :]

This summer? Well,I'd like to visit the Greek Island..I've been twice in Spain,twice in France,once in Malta, I'm Italian (so every corner of Italy has already been explored) so the last places of my beloved Mediterranean sea (considering the European side) which I had to discover are Croatia (which more or less covers the whole coastline of ex-jugoslavija) and Greece...Greece would be my options,but I must first look at my frineds and their thoughts...we should go in August and enjoy the typical summer-holidays: sun,sea,fun...I'm quite conservative,in that,also because during the year I don't travel too much.. When I'll finish my mediterranean trip, I'll start (I hope!)with northern europe for a couple of years...then I'll probably start to cross the Oceans :-P
