It *Is Summer Right?

All week I've been dealing with energetic,whiny, crying, complaining kids and every afternoon I come home to an even more sophisticated yelling. I don't get it. It's summer! It's like as soon as the final school bell rang the clamps got tighter. The whip has been cracked and the sweat on my brow comes from no solar source. The only peace I've gotten is when I'm asleep. And I've been doing a lot of that. I think my body is trying to recover from all of those super late nights of school work I went through throughout the year. My sleep pattern will hopefully get back on track in the coming weeks. Even today I was forced to leave the house before 9am. When will my lazy days begin???? Well, this summer won't have many of those anyway. This is my grind summer. The summer prior to my senior year of high school. I'll be putting in major work to prepare myself for the school year. Athletically and academically. Basketball training, tournaments, workouts, college recruiters, summer ball. SAT tests, AP Lang summer work, my NSLC Journalism trip (you guys will hear about that in my next couple posts), USA test prep stuff, and some vacation time on the beach or just rest from everything. This summer will be one to remember. I wanna do the things I wanna do. The things I've dreamed about since middle school. But when will it begin??? Soon. Very, very soon!
