In these later, even more boring days of summer, (mostly everyday after my birthday) I start to think a lot more about my grade school days. I close my eyes and try to remember the familiar scents of pine trees and burned eggs on the blacktop. I have memories of summer basketball games that lasted for hours. We'd play three or four at a time go home and play N64, then go right back out there and play until we couldn't see anymore. Then, there were the seemingly endless summers with friends and chasing down ice cream trucks and never feeling like it was too hot outside to do anything out there. And school in the fall was very different. I hated the smell of school in autumn. It smelled of teachers, glue, and a mix of various air fresheners. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if I'd liked going back a little more after summer break, but in those days, you couldn't pay me to go back to school after summer was over!! I miss those days!!!
"Na kaerude!!!".....And I did....Thanks Kintaros, thanks a lot!
