Summer

It's May. You can just feel the excitement in the air. The snow has melted and the flip flops are out of the dusty corners of your room. Plans are made for campfires and late night activites as summer draws closer. And then it is here. Summer. And everyone is excited to be out of class and being able to sleep in, not having to worry about homework or anything. But then the middle of summer is here. The time of summer I dread most. Because at this point, everyone is off doing things. Vacations, Jobs, and the like, and nobody has time for anything. Except me. So I can truthfully say to you on this day; I cannot wait for school to begin. I can't wait for the groans of homework and the books that I don't want to read. The misunderstanding of projects and the grueling arguments with teachers on who lost what assignment. I can't wait for the late football and volleyball nights and having to get up early in the morning to finish the homework that was due two days ago. Because even through all of that, I get to see my school friends on a daily basis, and my other friends on weekends. And that's what I've been missing all summer. I need it back. Soon.
