summer lovin', happened so fast...

June is coming to a close which means that summer is already nearly one-third over! I know summer technically starts the third week of June, but for those of us that are in school, whether grammar school or graduate school, summer is marked from the moment we step out of those halls until the moment we have to gather our backpacks for a new year. If I was going by that logic though, my summer would actually be over July 9th when my first graduate class starts, but since it is only twice a week and during the late afternoon-early evening hours, I say it doesn't count! But summer is still rapidly passing us by, and I can't say I have done a whole lot that is on my summer to-do list. Sure, I have now accumulated a decent tan from laying by or in the pool so I no longer resemble the look of the undead, but there is so much more to be accomplished and so much more fun to be had.
Have a sleepover with my girlfriends that involves lots of hair braiding, nail polishing, and maybe even a prank phone call or two. ☺ Read as many fun, romantic, or cheesy books as possible. ☺ Make an epic playlist that encases all of my summer favorites. ☺ Go to the beach for the entire day, morning to night. ☺ Get those popsicles with the gumball eyes from the ice cream man. ☺ Have a water balloon fight. ☺ Toast marshmallows in the fire pit with my family. ☺ Create the perfect summer salad. ☺ Go through all of my old and new copies of Nylon that I've never finished. ☺ Write more blog posts! ☺ Tie dye my white tank dress in fun pastels. ☺ Get in touch with old friends. ☺ Watch episodes of 'Laguna Beach' and laugh at how much I used to love it (and still do). ☺ Drink lemonade and frozen margaritas by the pool. ☺ Drive to the beach and watch the sunrise at the pier. ☺ Write more short stories / try my hand at poetry. ☺ Re-pierce my ears. ☺ Learn to make at least one decent dinner… and those chocolate chip cookies with the oreos inside them. ☺ See both Magic Mike & Ted & laugh my head off. ☺ Go to six flags and ride everything. ☺ Make the effort to exercise more often. ☺ Go to the city and have a fancy brunch. ☺ Dance, dance, and dance some more. ☺ Take more photos!
