Things I always Tell myself I will do After Exams End

I'm in the middle of exams and as always when I'm closer to the end than the start (one more week to go. finally) I always start thinking of what I'll do when exams are done. Like if there'll be this big change or new era that dawns when I have so much time free that I spend studying before exams. Usually never happens but I figured I'd list them.

Extra: Cause I saw Take This Waltz  between publishing part one and two of this list * Take This Waltz - 2010 Why: I love my home city, Toronto and so I was already likely to lov
