"What should we do today?" Vicki asks, deep in thought. I'm currently working on the same new painting of mine still.

"We should do something that involves being outside because the weather is so hot." I suggest. I wipe the sweat off my forehead as I return back to my painting. Vicki's face lights up and I can tell that she just came up with something.

"I just came up with the perfect idea," She begins, "We should have a beach day!" That sounds perfect right now, especially with how hot and humid it is at the moment.

"I totally agree. Are we inviting Emma, Nicole and Hazel?" I ask, placing my paint brush down. I am done with painting for today. Don't get me wrong, I love it but when I paint too much, I lose motivation. Which is why I paint for a certain amount of time each day.

"Yeah, I'll send a text out." Vicki announces, grabbing her phone out.

After a short while of waiting, they all reply with a yes.

"I'm going to go back to my house to change. Meet at my house in 30." Vicki says, leaving my room. I walk over to my drawers to find an outfit for the beach:

Once I have my outfit picked out, I put on my sandals and head downstairs

"Hey mom, I'm going to the beach with Vicki and some friends. Is that alright?" I ask her. She looks up from her laptop.

"Yes, go have fun." She says before returning to vigorously typing on her computer. My mom is an interior designer however she is able to work from home so she does that whenever she gets the opportunity.

"Bye!" I say before closing the front door.

"Who's ready for the beach?" Nicole asks excitedly. She has her hands up in the air through the roof of Vicki's jeep. This right here is one of the reasons why a jeep is so amazing to have.

"I get aux." Emma demands, plugging her phone in.

"Ooo play the summer playlist that we made." Hazel orders.

"Duh, I was already on that." Emma states as though it's the most obvious thing in the world.

"Beach day is literally perfect for the weather." I say, looking out my window. The song, "The Spins" by Mac Miller starts playing.

Once we finally arrive at the beach, we take all of our bags out of the trunk and start running down to the sand. As Nicole is mid running, she trips and falls face right into the sand. She starts cracking up which causes us all to laugh now too.

"Of course you manage to fall." Vicki says with a chuckle. Emma and I go over to where she is on the sand and help her up.

"Nice one." I say to her. We walk a bit further before we place our towels and bags down.

"Oh my gosh, cute swimsuit." I say to Hazel.

"You too girl." She responds, laying her blanket down on the sand. We all do the same.
