My summer bucket list —
- Start reading the X-Men comics

- Go on a picnic
- Go to the beach as often as possible
- Visit Capitola Beach
- Visit Half Moon Bay
- Dip into the ocean
- Play in the sand
- Get a little tan
- Go to the pool
- Eat tortilla chips and fresh salsa
- Eat fancy cheese and salami
- Drink my 2011 V. Sattui Winery Moscato Frizzante
- Try Prosecco wine
- Eat watermelon slices
- Read, read, read…
- Walk everyday for at least 20 minutes
- Get fit
- Go hiking
- Brew & drink 麦茶 (“mugi-cha”, roasted barley tea)
- Paint my nails more often – summery colors: yellow, hot pink, turquoise, orange, red
- Mojitos!
- Dinner & drinks with friends visiting from out-of-town / out-of-state / out-of-country
- Beachy wavy hair
- Shoot Polaroids
So basically, all I have left is to drink a lot & exercise more, ha! And try to squeeze in another trip to the beach. We were going to go back down to Capitola or one of the other Santa Cruz beaches this weekend, but I’ve been reading about the influx of anchovies in the water, as well as “squishy, strange things found on Monterey Beaches” (no joke – that is the headline of the article), resulting in high levels of bacteria, so I’m a little bit turned off to swimming in the ocean right now.
Still though, I am writing this while wearing shorts & a sweater; it is cloudy and a cool 65°F right now. I am not quite ready for summer to end just yet.
