What are your plans this summer?

Post by **saturn** » Mon Jul 04, 2005 11:07 am

I'm going to start as resident in the academic hospital in september, so I'll have two months left to do what I want.
At the moment I'm doing temp-work like vaccinating and medical tests, nothing special, not straining my energy at all. Plenty of time left for gaming, seeing friends and other social stuff.

In august I'll go a week or two on vacation with my girlfriend (probably Rome or somewhere else in Europe) and I'm contemplating about another backpack-trip to somewhere else abroad (any tips?).

Also, I need to find a new place. Buying a house would be the best option, but there's many things to deal with and I know nutting bout it. The bank has many advisors for medical 'professionals' and they love to see me come to their office -$$$$$$-.

What you gonna do?

Get drunk with friends, make money, and hopefully work out enough to get my six pack before school starts.

I'll be starting a study soon so that's gonna take away some time, but i'll be switching to a part time job instead of full time, so that'll even itself out i guess.

Next on my priority list is finding a new house closer to the centre, getting myself a sweeter gf and do some things i never get around to doing (lotsa personal administration stuff mostly).

If i can, i'm gonna go on a cheap vacation somewhere close - no idea where yet, i'll see what happens.

personal administration....hell, I always procrastinate on that. I got tons of papers that I have to organise. I hate it

p.s. don't forget your passport if you go to Schiphol

Not that I can see in the near future. I have so much work right now I can't take any time off. But when you're self employed this is a good thing.

Post by **saturn** » Mon Jul 04, 2005 11:35 am

basically you can decide at any moment you can take a vacation? (if it won't hurt your business)

Post by **Denz** » Mon Jul 04, 2005 11:37 am

Well not really, if I take a vacation and I have pending work that needs to get done and it don't get done on time then I can loose the account. Which would be a bad thing, but there are moments where I have no work at all so I can take a Vacation at that time.

At the moment that is not one of those times.

I'm working on a very large Condo in Park City that I have been workin on for a few months. It should be completed by the end of this week. Then I have a Pool to design for the University of Utah that has to be done by Tuesday.

I still have some pending work on the Manhattan Bridge in New York and the Williamsburg Bridge in New York.

I have an upcoming job for the Merrill Library for the University of Utah which will take place in a few months.

So as you can see by my work load that I'm too busy to take any kind of vacation.

Post by **Denz** » Mon Jul 04, 2005 11:49 am

Yes I do but I'm on the brink of hiring some help if this work load continues.
