Why I Officially Hate Summer

Summer is the most overrated season.

Why I Officially Hate Summer
travelchannel.com

I'm probably one of the only few people that actually does not like summer. Yes, having free time and not having to really worry about school is great, but coming home for the summer means having to work for the summer.

I hate summer for many different reasons, first is the heat. I am very fortunate to have an AC but being outside longer than three seconds in 90 degree heat is just too much for me. The worst is when it's so hot that you start to stick to whatever you're sitting on. It's not like I can enjoy myself and go to the beach because I have a thing called a job. Yes I have days off, but most of the time whenever I do it's either rainy, too cloudy, or just not hot enough for a beach day. Mother nature just plans out the weather based on what my work schedule is for that week.

Another thing I hate about summer is the clothes. I hate buying shorts and tank tops and wearing flip flops. I want fall weather so I can wear sweaters and pants and a nice pair of boots. Don't even get me started on bathing suit shopping...At least in the fall I can somewhat cover my insecurities. In the summer time all my insecurities come out to play.

The one thing that sucks about coming home from school is not being able to see my friends that I made while being at school. I live the farthest away from everyone and it really sucks. We can't really make plans either because we all have different work schedules. I can barely plan out a day to hangout with my friends from home because of our work schedules.

One thing I really wish I didn't do this summer was work so much. I feel like I haven't really had time for myself. I'm always on the go. I just wish I had enough money to go on a nice relaxing vacation but that's clearly not what life has planned for me right now. Hopefully if I work my ass off I'll be able to relax someday. I also hate having to deal with a sunburn. This year it hasn't been as bad, but I still got burned and it sucks.

With only one more month left of summer I will say that I will be slightly sad to go back to school. This summer wasn't the best for me and it has definitely been really challenging. I'm excited, nervous, scared, but most of all stressed about how this fall will be. Bring on everything pumpkin flavored and all the cliche things about fall because I officially hate summer. Sorry for those that do like summer, but personally I think it's the most overrated season.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
