The busier I stay, the happier I am.

So, this summer I'm taking at least two classes. I'm definitely getting a job. What else should I do?

[Poll #299513]

Note that some options fall into more than one category... certainly books on autism/autistic people can fit three categories all by themselves

Thanks for the advice.

Ahem.
These are all some great suggestions, and needless to say we will talk them all over on Sunday.

Fencing - I think this is a GREAT idea, though the money for it will have to come from somewhere - unless you can find the club at school or some other free situation.

Finish cleaning and painting the house - I intend to work with you on this one, and to give you "assignments". This NEEDS to be done - as much for your state of mind as anything else.

Volunteer somewhere - This also is a great idea, and one that I think will be really good for your self confidence especially with regards to getting a job. Definitely if you do not have paid employment you should do this, and it would be good to do some volunteering on a smaller scale even if you do have a paying job.

"Heavy duty" books - Don't worry, I have every intention of assigning you a reading/study list, plus papers on each. I'm not at all satisfied with the quality of your English instruction thus far, and I intend to make sure your writing standards are at the level of excellence that I expect.

Other independent study & translating Cicero - see above. Feel free to suggest subjects :-p

Plus - I will be devising a list of "office-y" skills and information that I think you need to know for your average administrative job. I will be working with you on said skills, including the ability to call random strangers and make appointments. Before you complain, you should realize something - I COULD ask for money for all this work! But I won't :-D

The money comes from Me Getting A Job.
