If you could take the next month off, what would you do?

I don't think taking the next month off would do me any good.  Over the summer, I've been quite listless and found it hard to find the motiviation to do anything productive.  I wouldn't blame anyone if he or she says my life is boring.  Lately, I've been regaining inspiration from just simply going to school.  I guess I like being in a routine because it helps me prioritize what I'm doing.

However, I can see how taking a month and recharging oneself could be valuable.  Going to the beach and hearing the ocean tides smashing against each other and on the monstrous, barnacle-slothered boulders is very relaxing.  Or even taking a small vacation for a change of scenery can be fun.  Although I do take a lot of time from my schedule to recharge already, I really do appreciate  alone time, than opposed to big expenditures.  I do cherish the times when people can just be idle and have nothing to do and implore on consumerism.  I think it's important when one does absolutely nothing and can still feel a sense of personal satisfaction--as odd as that may sound.
