Summer is my favorite season of the year. Probably because of all the light. But (this is going to sound weird, but I know you all know what I mean), sometimes I feel pressured to be happy during the summer because I know that I am getting as much light as the year has to offer, and that this is my happy season. So when I’m less than happy, I start to freak, because I think, “Oh God, if I am feeling like this is summer, think about what I will feel like in February!”
