List any non-Summer-of-Code plans you have for the Summer

I have exams till 3rd-4th weeks of June so I won't be able to work full-time at this period, but I can spend 20-25 hours per week on the task. After the end of exams I'm going to visit my parents for some 4-5 days and also would be able to spend only 25-30 hours per week on the task. After that I'm ready to work full time and spend up to 45-50 hours on the task.
