As all the projects, homework, tests, and finals are reaching their final deadlines, summer is creeping closer and closer in.
As I watch students begin to pack up their belongings and head home for the next couple of months, it’s brought me to the realization that I’m going to have to head home and leave my friends pretty soon… which sucks. This year has brought me a lot of incredible people, as well as some not so great people. Overall, the amount of really cool people out weighs the not so great ones, which means I’m going to especially miss a good amount of people that I’m used to seeing everyday. Even so, my mom is very excited I’m coming home, even though she’s going to have to start doing my laundry again (sorry mom!)
When summer comes around, I always get super excited to be home, hangout with my hometown best friend Abby, and to go to the lake! In Oklahoma, I feel as though summer is directly associated to the lake, therefore summer means lake season is here with family and friends!
Along with lots of relaxation, I’ll also be heading to Ireland this summer for a couple of weeks, which I am very much looking forward to. My family has visited once, but we loved it so much that we’re going back, and this time we’ll pretty much be “locals” while walking the streets of Cork, Kilkenny, and Dublin. And hopefully, we’ll stop to see our good friend, Phillip, who was our toured guide the first time around.
Therefore, I can’t wait for summer, and I hope everyone has as much fun as I know I’m going to have!
