Oh What a Wonderful Summer

   Since it's my last day of summer before heading back to school for 10th grade I thought it would only be appropriate to reflect on the whirlwind but wonderful summer. I started off with the exciting experience of drivers ed and finally getting to drive. Shortly after my family had to make an unexpected trip to Florida because of the dear loss of my beloved Pippa. I miss him dearly and although all my family was gathered together for such a terrible reason it was nice to spend a couple days with them. I got the wonderful opportunity to raise  $3243.00 for the wonderful organization Little Pink Houses of Hope. Thanks to that experience it has helped me narrow down what I would like to do as career later on. Thanks to my wonderful dad who will honestly drive me anywhere (close ;) hehe) I got to meet Chris Colfer from Glee and get his autograph at his book signing. After ~18 months of braces I finally got them off which made me very happy! Getting my hair finally done was also achieved thanks to my lovely mother. I also got the opportunity to spend a couple days with my life long best friends Celeste and Lydia and even it was just a couple days, they were the best. Finally going to 6 Flags with my dad and sister also made the agenda. Who doesn't love riding roller coasters,sharing lots of laughs and memories like taking your sister on her first roller coaster.Checking a few things off the bucket list this summer like visiting where they filmed a part of TFIOS, eating at a restaurant featured on "Diners Drives and Dives", and go to the Drive In (the first 2 done at our trip to Indianapolis). Downtown Chicago was also visited quite a few times this summer. Many great memories were spent with my cousins, aunt, and uncle who live nearby like the drive in, lake day, weekend sleepovers, etc. I'm so grateful for all the wonderful memories I made this summer and all the wonderful people I got to spend it with. I'm just sad to see that it was quickly over and I'm excited to see what the rest of the year has in store for me. The song I leave you all with is "Summer" By: Calvin Harris.
