How was your summer?

[Hiro]

If I had to give it a school grade, I would give it expulsion. 

[Travis]

not bad, i guess

[snoorkel]

excellent, I got from there to here and got some important things in order.

[YPrrrr]

5/5 would do again

[Andria]

good

some things were absent to make it excellent but it was overall good

probably my most enjoyable summer so far

[Hippopo]

It's was p. good.  Definitely one of the best summers I've had.  The only thing I'd change is making it longer.

[Hippopo]

If I had to give it a school grade, I would give it expulsion. 

Also, why was yours so bad? 

[applesauce]

A-, much better than I expected. Would have liked to have spent more time with the lady, but other than that, this summer kicked ass.

you really want me to explain the whole thing?

Well let's see. My summer started with me dropping all of my classes for the semester because I was going to fail them all.

Then I went to Disneyland.

From there I had to move back home in my shitty under-renovation-for-the-past-5-years house in godawful bloody hot phoenix.
Then my family found out I dropped those classes, so I broke down and cried in front of them multiple times, and then we came to the conclusion that I wouldn't be able to keep my scholarship (luckily I did keep it for this year at least) and then my uncle (who lives next door) tried to "straighten me out" because he thought I was doing drugs or something, so he made me get up at 7 every morning and tell him my plans for the day. I was not to relax during business hours, so I had to have things to be doing until 5 every day. One day I did some hardcore awesome cleaning and he came in and told me I had been cleaning for too long and should move on to something else. I became afraid of him.
My sister eventually got a place in my college town to move into, so I helped her move all her shit from our house, her boyfriend's house, and a friend's house.While moving her shit in, I found out the girl I asked out a few months ago was secretly dating the guy that told me I should ask her out. The house was absolutely unlivable, so we stayed the night at her boyfriend's place. Right next door was the girl I'm in love with. I went over, and we had a lovely night of flirting and watching tv, and then we spooned and slept in her bed that night. The next day she was instantly grumpy and told me to leave, so I went outside and threw rocks at the window at 7am until my sister woke up to let me inside.. Later that day the girl told me she regretted it all and that we'd never do it again, and since she was being vague I came to understand that she didn't want to be friends anymore. I found out later that I was wrong in thinking that and we got on better terms.
We were up there for about a week trying to find a new place, but failed and had to move back. We had moved all her stuff out of the shitty place and into her boyfriend's, and then again from there back to various friends' places and then we went back to phoenix.
From there I was being told by my family to join the military, but instead we agreed to put me into community college. So for the entire month of July, I woke up at 5am, went to 3 2-hour long classes, and then got out of class around 1:30 every day but had to wait until 2:30 in the phoenix summer sun for someone to pick me up. I tried to get my driver's license, but failed the test twice.
I finally got out of community college, and then chloe (the girl) got the idea that her and my sister and I should get a place together. She already lived in my college town, so she found a place, signed the lease, and graciously payed all of the bills for it until we got our financial aid money in. Moved in about a week later, and the place is beautiful. Hanging out with her every day, things are great. Then one weekend she went back to her hometown without saying a word, and told me online that she got back together with her ex-boyfriend. That crushed me. We still hang out all the time, cooking together and going places together, she's very flirty and holds my arm and various other lovely things. Since her boyfriend lives in another state, it's easy to pretend that it's just her and me. But I would still get depressed at night, and finally told her about it and we hugged it out and she made me feel better. Since then we've been even closer. Today, she told me that her boyfriend is going to come visit next weekend, the same weekend my family is visiting. I don't know how I can handle that, at all. She just bought a bigger bed today, probably for him to be in with her :'( Oh and her room is on the 2nd floor directly above mine, so I will be able to hear things. So my time in this house has been really up and down. I always enjoy being with her, but the situation is absolutely terrible. I went to bed at like 8 tonight and cried for a while, but couldn't sleep.

jesus. well good job not joining the military

[Travis]

I tried to get my driver's license, but failed the test twice.

waht

[Hiro]

waht

The first time was an instant fail because I hit a cone doing parallel parking (i was using a completely different shaped car from the one I normally use) and then the 2nd time the instructor told me I was driving too fast even though I was going the speed limit and about 15mph slower than the rest of traffic 

jesus. well good job not joining the military

yeah, I absolutely refused that idea.

hmm, well fuck. some of that sounds like you being a bit of an idiot, but it mostly sounds like a bunch of fucking random shit that would probably make me be like "hmm, well fuck". reading that made me a bit tired.

isn't it great how established values (which many of our parents/families hold) reject freedom of thought
