Things I love about summer

1. SUN! I'm a really big hot weather person! I'd much rather a 30 degree day than 15 degrees

2. Swimming- when we used to have family Christmas gatherings at my grandmas I'd always be the last one out of the water, and I'd usually only get out if they threatened to take my presents and give them to my siblings or something. I love when your fingers go all wrinkly because you've been in the water too long (also happens when I have a really long bath) :)

3. Summer Fruits- berries, mango and watermelon are my three favourite fruits and they're all in season in summer. I also love rockmelon and grapes and just all fruit!

4. Shorts and t-shirts- I am really sick of having to wear a jumper all the time! It is so free to just wear some shorts and chill out without having to be wrapped in a blanket (even though winter isn't that cold in Australia, my house isn't built for cold weather so it's freezing)

5. THE BEACH!!!! This sort of ties in with swimming but I love being in the salty waves and just relaxing in the sun.


I just noticed that all the things I like about summer apart from the beach start with s (although I don't know if summer fruits counts) 

I am sort if worried about summer though because I am 12 kilos heavier than last summer, and although People will probably just think I look better, I can't shake the feeling that they'll be thinking "woah she's put on a lot of weight". Not that it should really matter. I don't want people to be friends with me because of the way I look. I just find it hard looking at myself in shorts and stuff, it brings a lot of bad thoughts...

I hate how in summer everyone gets so body conscious though! Everyone at school starts the whole "I have to exercise heaps and eat healthy to get that summer bikini body". Well who says you have to?! Who cares anyway! I wod much rather be friends with a friendly overweight person than an arrogant fit one. So what if someone is overweight, they might be really sad or have medical reasons for being overweight. And even if they just struggle with overrating, that's not the biggest problem in the world to have. Being a horrible person is much worse, although the media twists it so that people who are overweight are shunned and celebrities who don't care about anyone but themselves are gloried. Our world is super wacky sometimes...

This guy looks super friendly:


This is what some of the guys at the gym I used to go to were like:
