Well most of my summers are uneventful, and quite boring. I
don’t think I have a favorite memory of summer days. Being with friends is fun,
but that rarely happened for me. I usually spent my summers watching television
all night into the early morning, and then just sleeping all day. I was always
glad to be free from school, but I was often bored.
When I became a heavy reader when I was younger, I would
spend a lot of days and nights just reading a good book. With reading I spent
less time watching television, and being less bored as well. I would also write
short stories, or even scripts, or I would just sit at the table and draw. My parents
always worked, and I didn’t see much of my brothers. I guess a favorite memory
for me was when I went to Lake Mille Lacs with my family.
That weekend was a good one; we woke up to the unfamiliar
sounds of nature. We rode on a boat, in the lake, and even went fishing in
another. The warm nights and hot days were very nice. It was good to get that
step away from reality, even for a short weekend. That would qualify as a
favorite summer memory for me. The rest is just a mystery…
