10 Reasons Why Summer Is Actually Pretty Trash

Yeah, I get that I am grumpy.

I hate summer.

I know, I know. It is not the most popular opinion.

Before you get your panties in a wad, let me explain.

1. Everyone is sweaty all the time.

This means everyone stinks and looks generically gross.

2. Sunburns.

These are painful and can literally kill you someday.

3. Last season swimsuits never fit.

I never notice my boobs have changed until I put on a swimsuit from last year that fit perfectly and now titties are popping out left and right.

4. Mosquito bites.

These suckers hurt and itch. Last summer I had over 40 bites on my leg at one point and it was TORTURE.

5. Bees.

Along the lines of mosquitos, but they hurt much worse.

6. Your legs stick to everything.

Shorts suck because sitting down suddenly turns your legs into suction cups.

7. Sunglasses seem to magically disappear.

Sometimes it's by misplacing them or sometimes people steal your knockoff ray bans but the joke is on them because they cost like $10.

8. It is too damn hot all the time.

65 is perfect. 70 is good. But 80, 90, or 100. Nope. Not for me.

9. Not very many houses have air conditioning which is INSANE.

How many Starbucks do I have to hop around to just to get some relief from the heat?

10. Everywhere is crowded AF.

Beaches, vacation spots, parks, restaurants, or whatever.

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…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, 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."

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.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
