School starts in 3 days.

What a tremendoulsy horrific thought. Already I can feel the freedom and life of summer being sucked out of me and replaced with the scheduled chaos of school weeks. Even weekends during school lack the vibrancy of summer. It's an overall depressing blanket of a season being dropped upon my head, and I wish to defer it's effects as long as possible. There's just something about summer that makes everything alright, even if it's not, and something about school that magnifies the effects of any bad feeling (because you have to sit in class all day and have only busy work to distract yourself from it), and subdues the effects of any good feeling (because the teachers are constantly chastising you for attempting to share it with others through the means of chit-chat or any form of noise or movement at all).

As you can tell, I am really not looking forward to school, but without it we wouldn't realize the glory of summer. So I will hurry my way through school just to return to a season of freedom.
