Summer.

As the summer season began and hit its peak, I wondered how in the world such weather was possible. Where I come from, we do in fact have four seasons, but minus the 78% humidity I see too much here... And so in my thoughts I discovered the truth.

"Once upon a time, there was a land with an unpredictable climate. In the sky hung Sun whose size doubled and halved as he inhaled and exhaled. The temperature shifted drastically from day to day, causing sickness and a loss of crops and livestock. So the people of Korealand prayed to Sun. 'Sun,' they cried, 'please stop playing with the weather as if it doesn't affect us!' Sun, being a rather magnanimous pain, said, 'Fine. I will hold my breath for three months after fully inhaling and exhaling, but in return you must allow Water to enter the air.' And so the people of Korealand saw three months with their Sun twice as big, and called it summer. As time passed, they saw three months with their Sun twice as small and called it winter. And so they developed a cycle where crops and livestock could live and flourish, beginning the healthy prosperity of Korealand."


This is the only way I can understand the weather right now. It's been hitting 95 degrees along with the high humidity. As I said to a few of my friends, you could take a picture of me at any given point of the day or night and I would probably make a good sports drink advertisement. I am sweating constantly and woke up at 5:40 this morning because of how thirsty I was! So of course I messaged my sister.

Hahaha... Aside from thinking up stories on the bus and bothering Kyleigh with delirious ramblings, I am about 3/4 of the way through my English summer camp. The kids have just been divided into their groups/bands, and have picked out songs they would like to perform. I'm really excited to see the cuteness I'm expecting! They will perform on Monday, so I've been showing kids videos for their songs so they can learn the dance moves, and been helping them sing the melodies. Most of them are doing pretty well, but I feel like some of them just want a normal summer break. They're antsy and LOVVVVVE break time. ..I can't say I blame them. They're elementary kids and this is their break! But as long as they listen during class time, I'm okay with them running around during break. Maybe I baby them too much, haha.


Things are still going really well, though. I am looking forward to fall more than I ever have in my life, which is incredible because fall is the only season I ever want. Ever. (evaevaeva) I also want popsicles on a daily basis, although I don't know if that's much of a shift, either. Basically, my usual sentiments are just multiplied a bit. Like my desire for it to be Christmas. ( ! ) I will probably start listening to Christmas music next month.


But I think that's enough of my heat-melted mind for one blog entry, so stay tuned for the next one! ;)
