It's that time of year again. School is just around the corner and I'm doing my best to get hyped for junior year. I'm tackling a lot this year with debate and work and school and extracurriculars, but it's nothing I can't handle. This school year has got me feelin' some type of way, so here's 14 things I'll miss about summer.

1. Naps on naps on naps.

I'm almost certain I averaged 2-3 naps a day this summer. Oh summer 2K16, you treated me well. I'll miss you.

2. Being homework-less.

I'm really good at procrastinating. I'm like a procrastination princess. It's bad and I know I have to work on it, but it's nice not having homework. However, when I actually do my homework, I want it perfect and I stay up 'til the early hours finishing it. I probably look worse than Squidward at that point.

3. Eating whenever I want to.

Eating is wonderful. Eating freely is also wonderful. Not being able to eat freely makes me sad. So, it's easy to imagine that not being able to walk downstairs to my kitchen when my stomach rumbles would make me upset. Snacking is one of my favorite hobbies.

4. Late night drives.

Driving around and picking up an ice cream cone at McDonald's is always a good time, especially when the stars are out.

5. Camp.

Oh, debate camp was probably the highlight of my summer. I spent two weeks with some pretty amazing people. While it was two intense weeks, it was two of the best weeks of my life. I miss my friends from camp more than I can express.

6. Having copious amounts of free time to do whatever.

For the first month of summer, I was out of state, but once I got home, all I really had was work once a week. That meant that I had hours upon hours to do whatever I wanted. Usually it was sleeping or eating, but hey, I already covered those and y'all know how much I love sleeping and eating.

7. Beautiful summer days.

I live in Minnesota, aka Minne-snow-ta. Soon enough, the ground will be covered in snow and I'll be covered in a upwards of five layers.

8. Netflix binges.

I just watched all four seasons of House of Cards in four days. If that doesn't explain how hard I marathon, I don't know what will.

9. Summer vacation.

I didn't actually go on a vacay, but I did go to Salt Lake City, Utah and Chicago, Illinois this summer. They were for speech and debate, but still loads of fun. While I'll probably travel during the school year, I'll have to worry about homework, what I'm missing, and make sure to study.

10. Eating ice cream on the daily.

I'll admit, I ate at least a bowl or cone of the good stuff every day. Healthy, I know.

11. Bonfires.

Who doesn't love a bonfire on a summer night? S'mores, good friends, and good music made my summer nights infinitely better.

12. Movie nights.

Whether it be at a drive in or in my living room or at the theater, I love watching movies. Often times, they're one star rom-coms or cheesy horror movies, but there's always the occasional good one.

13. Beach days.

To my dismay, I didn't go to the beach as often as I'd like, but I still love going there. I love feeling the warm sand between my toes and diving into the water. (Also: lil bonus, GIF is from Moonrise Kingdom which I just watched today.)

14. Hanging out with my friends whenever.

Summer graciously handed me the freedom to hang out with my friends whenever we could schedule a time together. With school coming around the corner, that won't be as easy. At least I'll see most of them at school.
