Gonna try and learn assembly and C++ better, and then try and finish over 9000 projects I've started in the past. I don't feel like working this summer...

No work for me this summer unfortunately. I'll be completing my electives for 3rd and 4th year through Explore (spring session) in Quebec, and summer school. I'll be taking Mental Health and Music for Film/TV. Thenn I'll be volunteering with Camp Discovery for about a week. Looking forward to it

-Video games
-Pokemon (technically this is video games, but it deserves to be mentioned separately)
-Reading, hopefully all those free copyright expired books, on a Kindle
-At least one night of unlimited laser tag
-Adding much more paint to my rep suit

So essentially nothing. I'm hoping to get some writing done as well.

Oh, right, I forgot about the new Pokemon games; must add that to my list of things to do . I think I may actually buy Heart Gold legit to get that Pokewalker thing :p.

I actually already picked up HeartGold (this was a terrible decision, I should have waited until after midterms and exams). I still need to get that PokeWalker working. Hopefully it also encourages me to exercise this summer!

Rich Parents/Only Children would be my best guess in most cases

Maybe. It was my first Pokemon game since Crystal, so all the new content was definitely worth it for me. My friend said if you already have Platinum there isn't much point, just easier access to a few Pokemon, and apparently easier breeding. Although now getting it has gotten me back into Pokemon and I might pick up Platinum anyway...

Depending on how my plans for next year work out, my costs will either go up a lot and give me much less time to work, or it will go down a lot and give me more time to work. I probably should be working just in case, and I might see if I can pick up some work just in case. Or I'll see if I can qualify for OSAP once all my high school savings are gone and no longer count as an "asset".
