It was a week away and she was so excited, her absolute favorite time of the year was coming up, the time of year that her and her family and friends were the most carefree and the best memories were made, the time of the year with no responsiblities and warm weather all the time, the time of the year with three months free from classes, free from homework, and free from studying, the time of the year full of beach days, pool days, and vacations-a time period of pure bliss and endless fun, a time that would also be known as summer.
