Summer time!

Beaches, bikinis, trunks, beach bodies, sun tans, ridiculously hot, no school.

All those things above meant a lot to me when I was a kid. Every year, I look forward to summer because it's the longest vacation we get from our prison that is called "school".

Summer also means summer time food. I absolutely loved ice cream when I was a kid, but my parents unmercifully tried to restrain me from eating as much as I wanted, which really sucked. My favorite summer time food is "halo-halo" which is a mixture of shaved ice, bananas, gelatin, sweet beans, coconut and a bunch more ingredients and then you have to mix them all, hence the name of the food "halo-halo" which may mean "keep mixing" or "to mix" or just plain "mix".

My favorite activity is of course, going to the beach. No sports. Gross.

I had a good run with my summer time during a kid. I had lots of fun, but I guess it would've been more fun if I spent it more with my friends, unfortunately they were also all on their summer vacations and provinces.

Now I have work.

I can't even enjoy summer because it's too hot outside caused by global warming which was caused by us humans. Thanks a lot!

It's too hot to even commute. I can't even enjoy my summer time because I have to go to work. It's in these kinds of moments you'll see how being an adult really does suck eggs.

All I can do now is enjoy my "halo-halo" and just wait for a long holiday or just use up my leave credits just to go for a short "summer vacation" at the beach or somewhere to spend my birthday.

Oh, yeah, my birthday is during summer, so you can see my dilemma on my guest list since no one can make it because they're all away or something. It's no different now, either my new friends have work or can't make it for some unknown reason.

Now, summer just means work, still ridiculously hot, no school but you have to work, you have work and you still have work.
