Learning a whole lot.

Some of my Summer was long, long, long.

Some passed so quickly.

But it was beautiful and it taught me and grew me like all Summer's should.

With it's hot hot hot smothering air, beautiful sunrises, late nights, sparkling stars, pizza and junk, bright blue sea, and the promise that this is your life and it's all you got, so remember what you are here for and do something about it.

Do something about it.

So, Fall.

This is my life.

And you've promised me the same thing.

And I need to do something about it.

And so I will.

I will.
