Things I Love Thursday

The idea is from galadarling.com, which you should really go check out.

Summer 2009
As this summer begins to draw to an end, I am really thankful for the good times I had. Hanging out with friends just about everyday, going to good shows, days at the beach, and night that glowed with fireflies and stars made this summer extraordinary.

The Beach
This was mentioned in the last paragraph, but it deserves one of it’s own. The beach is pretty much the pinnacle of the summer experience. Funny story: once this summer, I actually had to get rescued by lifeguards. My friend and I got caught in a rip current. I began swimming parallel to the shore to break free, and realized it was not working. I turned around to wave for help, but ten lifeguards were already running into the water to rescue us. Was scary at the time, but makes for a good story.

Return of the 80′s
Leather jackets? Denim vests? Yes please. Especially on the denim vest front, I’m on a mission to find one.
