This is no summer of love, life, or living no stargazing, butterbeer-soaked movie nights at the library, or calls from my private school friends yet just hours spent on the computer and worrying, simultaneously. Putting on makeup blindly, my glasses clipped onto my tank top that's too tight to wear outside the house, while songs play that take me back to the previous year, when all I had was math corrections on the breakfast table at 7:00 while it snowed, and the days we would just reel around, looking forward to class trips and lock-ins that consisted of running around first on sunlit streets, and then around the pitch-black halls of the empty school, wary shrieks and giggles chasing each other in the air. But now I'm just leaning here on my bed, eyes tired and feet covered in blisters, thinking that the next three sweat-and-sunscreen-filled months are going to be anything but a vacation.
