When I first arrived in August, I expected a lot of hard work based on what my friends have told me.

But I soon realized, my friends had been beyond correct!

By October, my life was all homework and studying, all the time. I had to stay up till at least eleven o clock each night just to get by!

Eventually, I figured out that I had to manage my time better then I currently was.

In seventh grade I learned:
*How to communicate in Spanish
*How to solve equations faster in math
*Better more effective study habits

There is absolutely no better time of year then summer. When life is carefree and there is nothing to worry about.

When I can go swimming with my friends everyday without having to worry about turning in a single homework assignment of studying for a test or quiz. There is absolutely nothing better then summer!

I can wake up at anytime I want without the annoying sound of a stupid alarm clock going off every morning. I never have to worry about what to wear or how to do my hair. I can watch all the Dance Moms I could ever imagine without a single “Alissa time do your homework” or “Alissa don’t you have that test to study for?”.

There is simply not one bad thing about the carefree happiness that summer brings one a year. What’s your favorite thing about summer?
