Don’t get me wrong, I love being about to do what I want, whenever I want and not have to worry about classes and school work. However, summer break definitely has it’s downsides.
You don’t live down the hall from your best friends anymore.

It really stinks when you move home for the summer and don’t get to see your friends from a few doors down every day. Of course you text and snapchat all the time, but being a few feet and a few states away is a very big difference. 
You get asked the same questions every time you see extended family.
“How was school?” “What were your grades?” “Have you declared a major yet?” “Do you have a boyfriend?” It’s OK when your grandma asks you these questions, but when every family member decides they need to know all about your personal life, it gets kind of old.
Two-piece bathing suits.
In reality, all bathing suits suck, but two-piece suits are actually the worst. I’m all for body confidence; you do you girl, but personally, I’m nowhere near as comfortable in a bikini as I am in sweats and a t-shirt.
It’s always too hot.
Once July and August roll around, it gets so incredibly hot out that it’s hard to function! It’s too hot to lay out, it’s too hot to go anywhere, and it’s too hot to do anything. So, on these days, you usually just lounge around your house, binge-watching a show on Netflix, and eating everything in sight.
You’re constantly working
Now don’t get me wrong, I love my job and I love making money, but sometimes work is just so tiring and it seems to consume your life. Your family’s in town? Sorry, I have to work. Your friends want to hang out? Working, sorry. Your favorite band is coming to your town? Dang it, I have to work! During the summer, internships and part-time jobs consume your life.
You have to shower and shave every day.
When you’re always sweating and wearing shorts every day, you have to keep up your personal hygiene. You don’t want to smell or have prickly legs when that hot lifeguard at your pool asks you out.
You have to watch what you eat.
Whether you want to look good in that new bathing suit you just bought or your parents are nagging you about eating ice cream for breakfast, you’re forced to watch what you eat. Salads, flavorless meats and low-fat sweets consume your life for the summer, making you grumpy because all you want are some chicken nuggets from McDonald's.
No matter how hard we try, we always find something to complain about, and summer break is no exception.
