Sleeping until noon on a Thursday is great, summer jobs rock, and we love popsicles as much as the next guy, but around this time of year, we start asking ourselves: when will this madness end?! We're starting to sweat sunscreen, and wait a second—we don't actually like popsicles that much. Face it, people. Summer is over. But when God closes a door, He opens a window. Or something. Or maybe He just makes it time to go back to school. And here's why that's awesome:
- Six words: Bathing suit while driving = butt burn. Never again. Till next year.
- Dear summer job that requires you to scrub toilets or flip burgers: BYIIIEEEEEEEEE!
- You're running out of things to grill.
- You're ready for a holiday that includes: getting candy and presents, or eating a lot of heavy, starchy food topped with gravy.
- You're over holidays that celebrate flags and don't positively affect you immediately.
- Reruns are depressing.
- Remember what it's like to not be in 90% humidity all the time? Yeah, it's awesome.
- You're starting to forget how to write your name.
- Your video-game-playing thumb is so sore it's almost beyond usable.
- You haven't seen your school friends in so long, you forget what their names are, what they look like, and what their genders are.
- Hello, favorite pair of pants! And so we meet again!
- You sorta love packed lunches. (If your mom still puts cute little notes in your lunch box, that's okay, too. We're not here to judge.)
- After ODing on Slushies, you've been ordered by your doctor to abstain from all things icy for a year, and you have a cold headache 24/7.
- Your bug bites are starting to get bug bites.
- If you hear that ice cream truck song one more time, you're going to go insane in the membrane.
- You're really starting to get into the idea of wearing shoes again.
- Mom has been threatening to make you do AM Pilates Boot Camp with her.
- It will be much easier to get over the "Undie Exposure 2010" incident that happened at work when you're far, far away from your summer coworkers.
- Your brain is starting to feel like oatmeal tastes.
- Recent observation: your summer crush has a perpetual booger hanging form his nose. So over him. Next!
Why are you excited for school to start?
