Nearing the end of the 2018-2019 school year the saying “this summer is going to be the summer of 2016". I don't know about y'all but that was the summer I started driving and let me tell ya my life changed so much!

I know that everyone I've talked to agreed that their 2016 summer was their best one yet. Which is really confusing as to how this summer has NOT been anything like the summer it was supposed to be.

Not only have I had to work LITERALLY all the time and have little time to socialize with my friends, but the adulting stuff of life also hit me as well. It feels like now that we are adults fun is a lot more hard to have/find. You HAVE to work enough hours to pay rent, bills, etc.

Not only did I have a really busy work schedule but I also was taking 2 summer classes. It feels like now that we are adults we don't get a summer vacation anymore. We are always doing something whether that be school, work, etc.

I know now that I just have to get used to the idea of summer is for working and the school year is for school. Which does kind of suck but it's just realizing that you have more responsibilities and have to make the hard decision?

Although that doesn't mean as adults we can't still have fun! We just have to go the extra mile to make plans with our friends.

It's not like high school where you saw your friends every day and could be like “Hey, you wanna chill at my house after school" now we actually have to make the effort.

Which yes that kinda sucks but honestly that's how you find out who your the first friends are. They will go that extra mile to spend time with you and if not we well maybe they aren't as good of a friend after all...
