11 Things You Should Stop Saying To Me Because My Name Is Summer
Quotes Ideas

Do any of you have a name that is super easy to make jokes on? Well I do. Primarily, because I share my name with a popular season…Summer. Every day of my life at least one person has found a reason to make some crappy joke about how my name is Summer and feel obligated to laugh because you think you’re so clever. Honestly, it’s getting really old. So here’s a list of jokes and things that aren’t as funny or clever as you think.

1. Have you ever seen *insert movie title that has something to do with summer*?

I don’t automatically watch every movie that has to do with Summer. That’s not a thing.

2. *Starts singing song about summer* Have you heard that song?

I would prefer you not to serenade me if, you know, you can’t sing. Besides, not all songs with my name in them are actually good.

3. You should watch it/listen to it.

I’d rather not. If I wanted to, I would have already. How about suggesting something that has nothing to do with my name?

4. Does your name change every 3-4 months?

This was probably the best joke I’ve heard. Honestly. I’ve only heard it once and it actually made me think and I let out a real laugh.

5. (during attendance) Teacher: Spring? Winter? Fall? Summer?

So not original. Oh and thank you for calling attention to me. Talk about embarrassing.

6. Hey *insert other season here*!

Clever. So Clever.

7. If you were born in the Fall, then why is your name Summer?

Please stop.

8. Why did your mom name you Summer?

I don’t know. What made your mom choose your name? Because she liked it maybe?

9. Is it because she wanted her Summer all year long?

While this is probably the cutest thing I’ve ever heard…It’s not that deep. There’s not a reason for everything.

10. Nobody likes a short Summer.

Oh I get it. You combined insulting my name with insulting my height. Nice. You probably thought real hard on that one.

11. Hey Summer *insert word here*

Summer Breeze. Summer Rain. Summer Anything. It's old.

I’ve heard your jokes before so please stop making them. They’re not funny and they’re not clever. They’re just annoying and I’m sick of pretending to laugh.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
