Once Upon a summer in a very rainy England…



...Well The End really.

That’s how eventful my summer has been. I had so many plans for this summer. In my mind it was going to be amazing, adventure filled and would create memories to last to life time! It’s reality it just rained every other day and I came down with the worst luck.

Well, okay, I’m pretty much always unlucky but this summer just completely tested my patience. Firstly, I ended up in an emergency dentist two days before my exams. Fantastic timing of course, it’s always great revising when you have a killer toothache. Secondly, I had to use the money I’d saved up for my summer to pay my super awesome dentist. Yay. And thirdly, any plans I did have were cancelled due to rain anyway! What a great joy it is to live in England during the summertime! 

This summer was so awful, it almost topped the year I came down with the chicken pocks on my first week off school. 

It’s times like this when I wish I could be like the characters in the books I read. Their summers are always LIFE CHANGING! Oh, and they always seem to have the pick of gorgeous guys. In my life, the guy I liked ended up dating someone else this summer and instead I was practically stalked by a guy who I’ve tried so hard to keep away from. He worships me. It sounds harsh that I would try to shut him out right? But you don’t have to put up with him; he’s literally the complete opposite of me. And I don’t mean in the ‘opposites attract’ kind of way either – we just aren’t compatible. Most of the things he finds hilarious, I find offensive! It’s funny, when I was 14 a guy chasing me around all summer would have been a dream come true but now, it’s a nightmare. 

The only good thing about this summer is that I got to travel down to London as the Olympics were going on. I was so excited to take plenty of pictures of the capitol city during this once in a lifetime experience. I took about three pictures before my camera decided to just randomly stop working. See? The universe is against me. 

So whilst my friends were off on sunny vacations abroad, I sat at home with my dog and annoying younger sibling. To make up for the lack of adventure in my oh-so-awful summer, I’ve decided that right now I’m going to pick a random place on earth to visit… on Google Maps…
