Those Crazy Days of Summer


Well here it is, the last day of school. It’s funny how as a kid you look forward to the last day of school almost as much as Christmas. The last day of school means no more homework, end of the year parties, music and summer. The last day of school isn’t sad at all. Maybe because you know tomorrow you’re still going to see the exact same people. Maybe why that makes it even harder now. Maybe its because I’m slowly checking out residents and saying goodbyes or maybe it’s the hope of things that could be/ maybe next year or maybe it’s the emptiness that seems to be at every corner of the dorm, but as much as I’m ready for summer I hate that it’s the end of the year. Its funny, you would think that after doing this for many years it would be the norm. But the understanding of never seeing some people again looms overhead. Don’t get me wrong, I just as much as anyone is looking forward to the summer ahead and being home but with the summer holding so many unknowns, today I’m thinking back to those grade school days of summer and hoping that this one is just as much carefree as the ones before it.
