Our family is going on a trip to Europe basically. Paris, Amsterdam and some other places that I didn't even pay attention to. Hopefully it will be fun.

Turkey is definitely a place that I want to visit sometime in the future.  There is just so much history there, and it's easier to get into than comparable places like Syria or Iraq.

Well, over the summer I will probably be either working or reading pretty much the whole time.  Although hopefully I don't end up working 60 hour weeks by July like I did last year.  ( I work on an Ice Cream truck, it's quite fun but also mind numbing. )  Also, maybe I will start posting on this site occasionally.

We actually have to pay for all the ice cream that we eat.  There was an unfortunate incident with one of the other employees and ten missing chipwichs.  After that, we have to more or less pay for everything.  Plus it's all prepackaged stuff, most of it isn't all that great.

Yea, pretty much.  But I do not think the ice cream truck business has to many years left in it, so, umm, buy your own ice cream.

I used to work in an ice cream factory and we used to get as much free ice cream as we could eat. One of the girls who worked there used to take 4 or 5 700ml containers home pretty much every time she worked.

Unfortunately the outlet was in cracktown so I had to constantly deal with crazy crazy crackheads, but otherwise A++!

I don't think I'm going anywhere this summer except up to my cottage (which is on Big Gull Lake in Ontario if by chance anyone has heard of it) a couple of times. That should be fun, but I think next year I am going to Europe which is going to be much better! :D

Other than that, just chilling and, hopefully, absolutely loads of parties.

They don't anymore, I used to work there. And they gave us free ice cream because they produced it in HUGE BATCHES and it costs very little to produce, and it was their way of thanking us for working for minimum wage.

Having access to that much ice cream must make ice cream eating a lot less fun than it usually is

Baskin Robbins especially is very easy to get sick of because it's so rich in flavour, it's one of the few after dinner desserts that I can't finish usually...
