Season of Magic
With summer vacation underway, I introduce the summer series of blogs. With no homework or school, I envision the season I've waited for all year.

Long walks in the silent moonlight. Socializing until sunrise. Midnight swims, immersed in deep turquoise. Enchanting nights.

And as I become submerged in the beauty of summer, I attempt to unveil the mystery of what is to come. And though I don't know for sure what this season has in store, I envision that this summer will be the best yet.
