Although I won’t be moving in for another 15 days or so, summer has basically come to a close for me at this point. All of my closest friends are all already off at their respective colleges, making new friends, starting classes, eating cafeteria food and experiencing dorm life. Jackets and boots are popping up in all the store windows, and pumpkin spice lattes have made their comeback in Starbucks across the nation. Although a recent heat wave has made its way to the Jersey Shore, fall is lurking around the corner.
Don’t get me wrong, I love fall. I would even go as far as saying its my absolute favorite season. But the thought of the summer of my 18th year coming to a close makes me sort of sad, and also kind of scares the shit out of me. I mean in a short 15 days I will be in a completely new city, with totally new people. I am going to be in charge of me. I’ll be the one who will make sure I eat, get my laundry done, make it to class on time. Mom won’t be there to nag me to pick up my clothes or anything else for that matter, which may sound super cool and all, but really it scares the crap out of me.
But as I sit here, in my local Starbucks, sipping my PSL and whining about the impending doom/amazing-ness of college I can’t help but look back and reminisce about how fab-o my summer really was. Although it ended way too soon and with far too many goodbye (nay, “see you laters”) it was pretty much jam packed with crazy fun adventures and my best friends and really, what more can you ask for from your summer between the end of high school and beginning of college?!
Go on if ya wanna see some highlights of my summer ❤ …
I had a graduation party with all my BFFLs ❤

Beatstock, even though everyone laughed at us for going was probably one of my favorite nights this summer, dancing the night away with my best friend ❤
This summer was one I’ll never forget, to say the least.
Its sad to see everyone go but its time to move on.
And some final words from my best friend…
“high school was a mess; a reckless, pubescent, acne prone mess.
we spent the last four years fighting, laughing, crying and dance walking through every kind of struggle. but we did it together, and in the end, we made something beautiful. to be honest, high school was a little slice of hell, but at the end of the day, i’d do it all again for more moments like this.” -kb
