The Summer Feels

Let the countdown begin.

The Summer Feels

The six-letter word that is the most wonderful time of the year. It’s the season that’s 3 months full happiness, living easy and endless possibilities.

Here's to the best feelings of summer:

1. Summer Concerts

Going to concerts on the lawn being surrounded by hundreds of people without a care in the world all while still being full those tailgate burgers.


2. Sunsets

The feeling that makes your heart all warm and tingly. Sitting on the beach, outside by the pool or relaxing on your patio as the day comes to an end.

3. Lemonade

It just seems to taste better in the summer. That cool, refreshing feeling of drinking freshly squeezed lemonade as you aimlessly wonder barefoot

4. Driving with the windows down

Singing at the top of your lungs with friends with the wind on your face and the warm summer air.


5. BBQs with friends and family

The smell of charred hot dogs, hamburgers and ribs, the sight of kids on the slip and slide, and your drunk Uncle Bob eating chips and arguing over politics.

6. Going to the beach

Enough said.

7. Summer nights

Sitting around the bonfire laughing and roasting that perfectly golden brown marshmallow (summer wouldn't be complete without it).

8. Less clothes.

It's HOT! Say goodbye to those chunky grandma sweaters and riding boots because there is no joy quite like the sound of flip flops on the boardwalk.

9. Ice cream

Theres nothing like a double scoop cone on a hot summer day. Ice cream from your favorite local shop is so good you don’t even mind being sticky.

10. Being Tan

It's proven that everyone looks and feels better when tan. Bring on those UV rays as you ditch that 30 minute make up routine

11. 4th of July

Truly the most American holiday. There’s nothing quite like an afternoon filled with hamburgers, beer and fireworks.

Summer, it’s love if I do say so myself.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
