summer worries, summer woes

Summer... Sun. Blue skies. No classes. Birds chirping. Light till 9 pm. Relaxing. Peaceful. Quiet.

Riiiiight. Except that every single person has summer PLANS. Internships. Jobs. Grants won. Fellowships to fulfill. Travelling to do.

Is it so bad that I just cannot muster up the energy to seek out an internship/job now? What's wrong with just doing nothing during the summer?

Graduate schools, potential employers and all the powers-that-dictate-your-future-success are forever saying "Do something you like, seek out something you're passionate about, don't follow the average person" when advising you about what you can do to beef up that resume of yours.

WHAT IF I'm just so sick of doing 'productive' things that I just want to curl up in my bed for 3 months and not do anything? What if I just want to be able to wake up in the morning and not be confronted with a million and one deadlines and things to do? What if I just want to be the lazy-ass unmotivated tired boring person I am?

ARGH.
