Summer is a time for relaxation and fun. It’s a time for vacations and adventures. It’s the time of year that we looked forward to as children, probably even more than we looked forward to Christmas or our own birthday. And that sense of childlike anticipation carries over once we’re adults. Summer just rocks.
Except now that you’re an adult, you realize that just because it’s summer doesn’t mean all your responsibilities magically cease to exist. During summer, just like any other time of year, you have to exercise at least some good judgment. That’s why you tell yourself these things every single year. Whether or not you actually listen to yourself… That’s another story.
“I’m not going to let myself get ridiculously sunburned at all this year.”
And “I’m going to put on makeup every morning, even when I don’t have plans that day.”
“I’m not allowed to turn on Netflix until I’ve worked out for the day.”
