 Summer Adventures

By: Sachi Dixit

Summer always feels like freedom. The days are longer, the weather

is warm, and there is no school to stress about. Instead of waking up early

for class, I wake up excited to go outside and meet my friends. Every day

feels like it’s waiting for something fun to happen, and I never know what

adventure we’ll end up having.

One of my favorite parts of summer is riding our bikes around the

neighborhood and going to Wawa. We race each other down the streets,

laughing and trying not to fall behind. When we get there, we grab snacks

and cold drinks and sit by the fountain in our neighborhood and talk about

everything and nothing at the same time. t might seem simple, but in those

moments, it feels like everything is on pause, and that all that matters is

now.

After that, we usually head to the nearby playground or just hang

out outside until it starts getting dark. We play games, listen to music, and

joke around. Sometimes we lose track of time because we’re having so

much fun. The sky slowly changes colors, but none of us wants the day to

end.

What really makes these summer adventures special is being

together. I know I’ll always remember the bike rides, the Wawa trips, and

the nights at the playground. Even when summer is over, those memories

stay with me. They remind me of laughter, friendship, and some of the

happiest days of the year.
