I live in big city too, but it's more like the suburbs of it. :P I live like maybe 10-20 minutes away from the beach, and the beaches here are nice. I'm gonna spend a lot of time there this summer hopefully. :]
I like some of that stuff too, but I'm not very good at art lmao. I really like to go walking, especially on the beaches in my area. It's so calming and peaceful. :) Do you live near a beach?
Oh, sounds cool. :D I'm on summer vacation now too, after a lonnng year of work. :) I still have reading and stuff to do for my English class next year, which sucks, but at least I'll be able to do it on my own pace for once! =D
