Summer!

I wanted to pull off something new, something wild, something exotic to talk about and then I title this post Summer! Who ever writes about summer? Especially this time of year. I know, totally unexpected, right? Speaking of the infamous summer, I almost had a heat stroke today. First, all of my train route was delayed, canceled and I had to take the bus. Since I live in a town relatively close to the capital, I travel each day to college by train. All of the train rides (well, the most crowded ones) are canceled until the future notice because almost the entire railway route went under construction .  What it took less then an hour by train, now it takes almost 2 hours of jolly bus drive. And above all, I was being late for my appointment in high school where I did my teaching practice. Since I was heading for high school I couldn’t dress like I was going to the beach, instead I wore long sleeves and jeans. Genius, right? So I had to survive the bus ride, high school, the heat and then, to make it more dramatic, I had to take the exam for which I haven’t study at all. After I came home, BY TRAIN (just to mention) I had a feeling like I was a superhero.  But, now I’m home and listening frogs contemplating in the distance. I thank God for this little piece of heaven he stored for me.

So, that was a brief update on me and my day. Manic Monday, I tell ya.

Now, let’s rewind a bit and start talking about the summer. Even though I have a few exams to pass before summer, I kinda got carried away with the anticipation of it’s arrival.  What I like most about summer? Primary, I love the feeling of college-less days (even for a month or two). Next year, I’ll be in my last college year and the thought of not having such long summers terrifies me. Summer has the longest days and one day seems like a year. I love the inviting warmth of the nights and getting out of the house at 3am and not worrying if it’s normal! Every summer we go to our vacation house by the seaside. I kinda have a second life there, where I have made a lot of friends (for life). This year, the big majority of them aren’t coming; some have babies, boyfriends or just don’t feel like coming anymore. But I AM! I’ll hang out at the beach, keep myself occupied with some easy reads, … I promised myself to shoot a lot of photos this summer. I’m happy because I finally feel like photographing again. Last winter was so depressing. Oh, and it’s my 25th birthday in 14 days. One more thing to look forward to.

Now go out and enjoy your piece of summer. I know I will! Muah!
