Summer Solistice

Summer solstice has come, School has come and gone, the nights are longer, and the sun is stronger. Vive l'Été!

I'm sure everyone has already started swimming in the waters and tanning on the beaches (Bar the Kiwis and Dingos, of course) or even found a new friend flying in from foreign lands (Yes, yes, we know she come from Russia with love... Yes I KNOW how she's a gymnast!) Truly a fun thing to wake up at noon or dawn, to sleep at dusk or midnight, all depending on what flavour of awesome you've got a craving for.

Although the fear of summer work imposed by the higher-ups at our school has put everyone on their toes, I'm pretty calm seeing I got early confirmation I passed Physics, Maths, Chemistry and [undoubtedly] English! All that could threaten me now is Maltese and French. That alone is worth a shit-eating grin on my face.

My only regret is I haven't gone swimming yet, despite numerous chances just because I don't have good swim shorts. Gah, I mean the last thing you want at the beach is stares concentrated on my groin. While flattering, it is nonetheless unnerving.

I'm actually feeling pretty good, and may really enjoy this summer!
