Summer. Ever since I can remember, summer was always the highlight of every year. Here’s a few reasons why it is truly the best season of all time.
1. No Class
Even though JMU is the all time best school ever (Go Dukes!), everyone loves having no class and being able to do whatever, whenever!
2. Nice Warm Weather
Do I have to mention this obvious one?
3. The Beach
Because a Corona with lime and the sound of the waves hitting the shore is truly the most blissful thing.
4. Insta Opportunities
Endless pictures of being in a sundress with your Starbucks with a gorgeous summer sunset in the background. Goals AF!
5. Farmer’s Markets!
One of my favorite things about summer is all of the fruits and vegetables that are in season. Farmer’s Markets are an awesome way of getting these yummy goodies while buying local!
6. Summer Jobs = Mo Money
Everyone loves having a little extra money to spend at Sephora!
7. Travel
Travel. Travel. Travel. Whether it be to the next town or the next continent, summer is always the best time to experience new cultures and see new sights!
8. Ice Cream
Need I say more?
9. Fourth of July
The Fourth of July: a time to celebrate being an American, have cookouts, and watch fireworks when the sun sets.
10. Time to Get Organized
Summer is always the time of year when I can get my life and priorities organized before the first week back at JMU. From moving back into the dorms or apartment, summer gives you the ultimate break before the stress of next semester begins!
