Camping tip , if you don't have the supplies already, tent, sleeping bags, lanters, ect. Shop for them at the end of the season in Oct. and go camping next summer, save on a ton of money. I don't know how you feel about travelling to Canada but Algonquin Park is absolutely beautiful. Lots of hiking trails. Check out the website.www.algonquinpark.com, they can also outfit you with all the gear if you don't want to buy your own. Have fun this summer and I hope you can cross everything off your list.

Brothers K is a good book, but if you're in the mood for Dostoyevsky I think Crime & Punishment is better, personally. And I don't know much about the South Beach Diet aside from the fact that it's low carb, but after reading about the effects of low carbs on the body, I wouldn't recommend it for long term use. Try eliminating refined starches instead (pasta, white bread, white rice, potatos, etc.)

oh, and some photo class advise: you'll undoubtedly have to buy photo supplies, especially paper. The Arista.edu paper offered on http://www.freestylephoto.biz is the cheapest I've found, and the quality is good, especially for classes. I use the RC variable contrast paper which is really sturdy and has really good contrast. good luck with your class :)
