24th of September 2010
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls – I am back... Obviously I haven't written anything in a while and I could say that it's because I'm so busy living my life to the full, but why lie; we all know that I'm just ridiculously lazy.
A fair few things have happened in the past month, I could start at the very beginning (it's a very good place to start) but I really can't be bothered and something tells me that you don't want to listen to how I spent the past month sleeping late and sunbathing.
Instead I think I'll write about why I love summer so much,
1. School/University takes a nice long break and I'm able to chill' 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!
2. Swimming, in the sea, without a wetsuit – complete and utter freedom :)
3. Summer Soundtracks – I love when all the summer tunes come out, I also thoroughly enjoy chillin' to a home made summer playlists; last year it was Jack Johnson and Bon Iver and this year I've been mixing it up with some Sufjan Stephens, The Strokes and a lot of unsigned Youtube artists. They're the future, literally.
4. The sun comes out to play (or at least it should – Global Warming, where are you?)
5. If the sun does come out to play then I get an amazing tan – some might say that it rivals (and by rivals I mean beats) Emma Joanne Wood's tan ;)
6. This healthy glow means that I don't have to wear any make-up... I see this as a blessing, you may disagree...
7. Rory cracks out the ol' Barbecue – this hasn't really happened this year, which I'm actually pretty pleased about... If Esther got the Chicken Kebabs and Smoked Sausages out then I'm 100% sure that I wouldn't be a vegetarian.
8. It's socially acceptable to wear shorts, all day, every day.
9. Holidays! This year was a bit of a disaster when it came to overseas excursions... I won't lie, I'm feeling very claustrophobic and a little pale, but next year I will be organised and then I'll finally be able to write something exciting in this Blog!
10. This will be my last point... Why? Because ten is an even number and that's how I'd like to finish up. I also have a habit of writing ridiculously long blogs (remember that Sufjan Stevens one? I get exhausted even thinking about it) and I'm fairly confident that if I keep writing you will die of boredom. So instead I will finish with this – Summer is great. I can't really explain why it's so great, maybe it's just the freedom that comes along with summer that I love. Either way, I like when it rolls around and I'm quite sad that it's ending...
Actually, now that I think about it, I'm really not that sad – when Summer ends it means that it's almost Halloween, which means that it's almost Christmas and when Christmas ends it's January, the month of my birth. January is closely followed by February, the month of chocolate, cards and chick flicks and when that ends then it's Easter and egg shaped chocolate fills the shelves and my tummy. When Easter is over it's May and Summer starts again... Now that I think of it, I'm pretty fond of the whole year, which is good I suppose because I plan on being around for quite some time :) Now stop reading the muddled musings of my simple mind and go enjoy what's left of summer!

P.S I had some excellent summery pictures to upload, but I've looked and I can't find them on my computer haa!
