Lazy days of the Summer

Remember when you were younger and from day 1 of school, you counted down till summer vacation? You yearned for the carefree days of sleeping in late, lying out in the sun, playing with your friends everyday, and maybe even going on an exotic vacation. Summer was the time of BBQ in the backyard, full of sweet corn on the cob, chilled ice tea, juicy watermelon, but mostly, the main course of ribs, chicken, hot dogs or hamburgers. It was time of asking your parents for money as you went to the mall and then movies with your friends in the middle of the day, feeling as though you were finally adults and that when the time came, you could totally leave childhood behind. You spent hours swimming and playing games in the pool near your house with all the other neighborhood kids. You were free of responsibility as you let your days slowly pass you by. And at the end of it all, as the new year approached, you said to yourself, "I can't believe summer's almost over. I don't want to go back"

Well, things change. Being unemployed sucks.

Till next time.
