Couch potatoes
1 DO no WORK! Not if you have parents like ours. (Sigh)2 Sleep more. We say we’re going to sleep more, but the day just turns into a series of short naps and bleaching all night.3 Have a summer fling. Somehow, that mysterious and gorgeous stranger just never randomly turns up like in the movies.4 Read more books. Nope. Just no. We may start, but maybe the memories (or should we say ‘wounds’) of school are just too much.5 Explore Jamaica. We know of TEENs who have been planning to ‘see Jamaica’ since ‘Whappie killed Phillup’. (Whatever happened between those guys anyway?)6 Get out more. Like we said earlier, ‘get out more’ basically turns into a series of naps and scrolling through Twitter and Facebook.7 Use our phones less. See above.8 Learn a new talent/skill. Whistling, or origami, or writing poetry, or, or, or. They never get done… does being awake for 48 hours count as a new talent though?9 Make new friends. In September, we’ll be talking to the same people we were talking to in May – because new people suck really (unless they’re that mysterious and gorgeous stranger who randomly shows up).10 Do something other than partying. The biggest variation is that a party turns into a beach party. But hey, we live in Jamaica. We could do that in December if we wanted.
