Forget Spring, I Can't Wait For These 11 Summer Things

I am the person that is ALWAYS cold. I detest the winter because, for 5-6 months straight, I can´t get warm. While spring is really pretty, and there are some wonderful things that happen in the spring, I want to skip straight to summer. I want to be warm and not have to sit and shiver anymore. On top of the warm weather, summer is just the best season all around. For an immense amount of reasons. Here are the things I am looking forward to the most about summer.

1. Shorts

Warm weather means I don't have to bundle up with so many layers!

2. Trips to the beach

I love going to the beach. I can feel the waves calling my name!

3. Ice cream shops

The ice cream shop is closer to my house than the store is. I'm not ashamed of that.

4. Days off

Vacation > working

5. Driving with the windows down

Music is just so much better with the windows down.

6. Baseball games

I love summer ball, both watching and playing! Warmer weather means we're that much closer to baseball!

7. Campfires

S'mores - need I say more?

8. Spending time with friends

Summer is always an easier time to meet up with friends. I can't wait for outings, dinner dates, and even road trips!

9. Concerts

Nothing beats live music in the summer!

10. Fireworks

Between the colors and the excitement, I can't wait for July to come around!

11. Longer days

There's more time to do fun things before it gets dark. I'm sick of it getting dark so early!

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
