Summer's Just Round The Corner

It's a Saturday morning, and I'm snuggled up in my cozy bed. I wake up leisurely, at my own time, without a single care in the world. I pull on my most comfortable pair of capris, and a loose T-shirt. I dig into my drawers, trying to find that cap I misplaced yesterday. Finally, I conjure the cap from my blanket. Yes, it's odd. I slap on some SP-14 sunscreen, put on my running shoes, and I am ready. Ready for the first day of my summer vacation.



Yes, summer vacation. Admit it, we all love to think about it. Just imagine, you're sitting outside, soaking up the sun, with a cold glass of lemonade in your hand. You're finally reading that book that you've always wanted to, but never got time to.



You don't have to wake up early for school, no boring old classes, and some of us are very relieved for we escape our teacher's irksome lectures. Now, some of us, alright, a lot of us, get holiday homework over these breaks. But, you see, you have the whole summer vacation to complete it, so you don't even have to worry.



Even if you have a lot of homework, here's some advice. Finish all of your homework on the first couple of days of vacation. That way, you will be completely rid of tension and you can over-relax (though I doubt that word even exists).

Even though it might be super hot, summer is the best time to be outdoors. It's the perfect time to play and learn lots of sports. You can even get a part-time job! :-)

The smell of summer is pretty special. It smells like fresh breeze, ice cream, and lemonade. It smells like the whole world is at peace. There is a smell like that. It smells of sunscreen, new clothes, and sometimes chlorine.

I think that every time we run, our legs tell a new story. Every drop of sweat is a way of remembering the times you had. Every gulp of water you take, reminds you of the hard play you did. Every ray of sun that bounces off a car, is a new born smile. It's ready to be taken, captured in yourself, and spread on, like a disease. Every summer is a unique experience that will always be remembered.

So, remember, summer's just round the corner, so get ready to tell a new story every day.
