So it’s the middle of summer and I, being the overbearingly optimistic person that I am (hahaha sarcasm is fun), have compiled a list of why the summer is an utterly terrible monstrosity. Have fun!
1.      It’s too hot
I can literally feel my skin melting. Did the Earth turn into the 3rd layer of Hell or something? Am I being punished for complaining about winter (if so I apologize for nothing so take that sun).
Â
2.      It’s too cold (WHAT EVEN TENNESSEE PICK A WEATHER AND STICK WITH IT GOSH)
So yesterday I wore short shorts and a crop top and was melting sweating and now I think I may die of hypothermia. Thanks for having my back weather. Thanks.
Â
3.      Realizing you have no friends
It’s not like you don’t have friends, but they all live hella’ far from you since you made the best ones in college. *Mr. Lonely plays in the background*Â
Â
4.      Having to go back to your summer job
Just remember, you’re in college so you never have to do this again. Ever.Â
At least you get to subtly insult the people who make your life miserable!
Â
5.      Being so bored that you actually pay attention to the pointless drama going on around you
The day you start caring about your co-workers’ love lives is the day it’s all over. I am sorry. May the force be with you.Â
But despair not my comrades as there are a couple of saving graces! You could:
1.      Catch up on your favorite book series
I FORGOT THAT READING FOR FUNÂ IS A THING! *Le gasp*Â THANK YOU SUMMER!
Â
2.      Binge watch your favorite TV show(s)
Did I just watch all of Lost Girl, the latest seasons of Dr. Who, Rupaul’s Drag Race, Orange is the New Black, and Ink Master in the last four days? Why yes. Yes I did (judge me, bro).
3.      Sleep.
Dude. You can sleep whenever you want. Enjoy it.
(Unless you have a cat, in which case you sleep when your cat says you may.)
Â
4.      Eat something that isn’t from McClurg.
If home cooked meals don’t bring tears of joy to your eyes then you are in for a very sad life my friend.
Â
5.      Get excited about coming back to The Domain!
Hey, I’m not joking! Get psyched about coming back to see your friends, crash all the frat formals, and to take that brand spankin’ new anthropology class you’ve been drooling over! (That last one might just be me. No shame.)
Â
SEE Y’ALL HEATHENS IN THE FALL! Well no I won’t, I’ll be in Scotland dancing with the Good Folk, but I will see you all in the Spring! (FYI, ya’ll should be on the lookout for my future blog posts and vlog posts about my Adventures Abroad!)
