How devastating to think that it is June 15th already. Where did the summer go, I ask? Maybe the several weeks of rain had something to do with it. Ironically enough, however, during the time that I should have been out riding jet skies, going paint-balling and enjoying other outdoor activities, the weather did not permit it. However today, on the Ides of June, right when the sun decided to come out and play, I find myself indoors - staring at a computer screen - and trying to catch up on homework assignments. I guess I spent so much time boycotting against the weather that I forget to stay on track with school. Thank you very much Mother Nature, I really appreciate it.
One might ask why the Ides of June is significant? Others may simply seek to know why I am fusing about it. Unfortunately there is no clear answer. The middle of June is both exciting and weird simultaneously. On the one hand, the weather is great and taste of summer is so vibrant it can salivate the mouth similar to Pavlov's Dogs. Yet, the end of summer also approaches. As succulent as summer may taste at the moment, the bittersweet reality of "educational slavery" becomes nearer. 5 classes, 2 jobs, and countless head aches becomes nearer. Sleep deprivation is close to and I can almost hear my alarm clock going off already - something I have not used in months....

Are the Ides of June really the ides of July? Has the summer gone by so fast that you thought it was June but it's really July? It is late so I am wondering if I know what month it is - but I thought I'd ask. It was a beautiful week-end. I hope that you had some time to enjoy it.
