What I Did This Summer, By Kate Age Seventeen

At work a week or two ago my coworker and friend asked me what exactly I did this summer. I shrugged and said "you know, not much...yeah it's kind of embarrassing but it is what it is." And then I got to thinking, what did I really do this summer? Because obviously I had to do something besides running a blog. So then I started writing this. There's probably so many other little things I didn't mention. But it's nice to say I have some sort of ode to summer.

This summer I saw my brother’s first home. This summer I discovered that boxer dogs barely have any fur. This summer I stumbled upon a free painting of a river. This summer my siblings and I threw my parents a surprise party for their 25th anniversary. This summer I heard stories about events that I’m too young to remember. This summer I made grilled cheese and drank with coca cola in a beer glass. This summer I trained two Pokémon teams and defeated the Elite Four each time-twice. This summer I stressed over student loans. This summer I level grinded until my eyes watered. This summer I read numerous books in one sitting. This summer I voted Ronmey 2102. This summer I created a semi popular blog dedicated to a Scrubs character. This summer I learned via the internet that I want Chris Carmack to be my new best friend. This summer I joined a Hair Club with him. This summer I killed invisible people in the parking lot. This summer a 2 year old woke me asking me what my pillow pet was, and then she sat in my lap and asked me to hold her. This summer I took part in a conversation about a sandwich with Tommy Siegel. This summer I screamed a song about stars to the stars with a few friends as we lied on a picnic table. This summer I questioned whether the stars were created to gaze at us. This summer I tweeted a few celebrities. They didn’t tweet back. This summer I went to Boston on my own and everything that could have gone wrong went wrong. This summer I attended college orientation and it was kind of horrible but at the same time got me really excited. This summer I read books about the Middle East. This summer I did myself a favor and found a way. This summer I listened to Bright Romans. This summer I got my first cell phone. This summer I realized that I few people to text on it.

This summer a waitress told me that it looked like “an animal had attacked” my dinner. This summer I escaped the cheating world of GeekSquad. This summer I fell in love with Delta Rae. This summer I pieced together Ben Thornewill’s love life. This summer I was traumatized by My Immortal Kidz Bop version. This summer I heard about LARPing and I’m still not sure I get it. This summer I was falsely accused of being a hipster blog. I even got a tag for it. This summer I gave relationship advice. This summer I hunted for Cryogonal with Bethany. This summer Bethany and I performed a synchronized swimming routine. We were flawless. This summer I also invited Bethany over to trade Pokémon and then we did everything but that. This summer I was given sass at a Starbucks so now I am boycotting the whole establishment. This summer I went to Sonic for the first time. This summer I spent all my mother’s money on Target. This summer I stayed up all night listening to Billie Piper and I don’t know how proud of that I am. This summer I played that song so loud because I wanted to. This summer I smoked fire. This summer I hugged Tanner Wilson shirtless which isn’t actually uncommon at all but I just love it when that happens. This summer I bonded with my dog which is a miracle in itself.

1. Sexual orientation. I'm straight.

2. What I’m really bad at. Thinking of what I'm really bad or good at XD No but seriously thinking of things or remembering, anything, off the top of my head, or NOT procrastinating >.<

3. The one person whose arms I’d like to be in. Jake.. always.. especially now that he's off in college and I won't get to see him often.. like.. barely ever.

5. A description of my self-esteem. I feel like it's a little lower than I think, but it's usually pretty high. I don't dislike myself or anything.. Sometimes I get self conscious about my body, but other than that, not really.

13. What I did yesterday. Went to school, had volleyball practice, DIDN'T do homework XD

21. The one place I want to be right now. In someone else's bed.. O.o (a specific person obiously)

34. My biggest pet peeves.

reminder that the Pond's are getting a divorce which means true love doesn't exist xoxo

dude this is not even funny okay i just saw the trailer with the whole "i don't have a husband" and "you have to sign these" "then we're not married?" "just like magic" and just no okay fucking no I won't believe it I see it happen without some weird twisty moffatic ending.

W A F L E R I S (these are the letters to create waffle fries)

I like to make you wait. :)

WAFFLE FRIES.

W. The men's rights movement, legitimate cause or laughable, and why?

Never heard of it, but it sounds laughable. I can't think of any right that men are not given because of their gender. Except for ones that are relevant to being a pregnant woman or something, you know, since they aren't one.

A. If you could get away with one murder in your lifetime without any legal, social, or emotional repercussions, would you kill someone?

No, definitely not. There's enough violence with those repercussions in place, I can't imagine that I'd need to add to it.

F. If you could take on the exact body and form of anyone else on Earth, who would it be?

For someone around my age-Hailee Steinfeld

Out of anyone- Dita Von Teese

L. The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?

Definitely the Beatles.

E. If you could live and be healthy without sleeping or eating/drinking, which would you cut out of your life?

Out of those I'd rather give up sleep I guess.

R. Do you have any (secret) feelings of bigotry to any group of people?

I guess I feel bigotry toward bigots? But that isn't really secret.

I. Was the first crush in your life something you had or something someone had on you?

People don't have crushes on me, so obviously the former.

S. Would you rather be the only person in the world that can read minds or have everyone else in the world be able to read minds except for your own?

That's silly, obviously the first one. I would feel so self conscious all of the time if everyone could read my mind.

feminism at 6 am this is our lives

Yes, we're super cool. So this is a conclusion made by a different asshole scientist, Gustave Le Bon, who was apparently one of the founders of social psychology and is known for a study on crowd behavior still cited today. BUT BACK TO HIS DICKISH WAYS. He concluded:

In the most intelligent races, as among the Parisians, there are a large number of women whose brains are closer in size to those of gorillas than to the most developed male brains. This inferiority is so obvious that no one can contest it for a moment; only its degree is worth discussion. All psychologists who have studied the intelligence of women, as well as poets and novelists, recognize today that they represent the most inferior forms of human evolution and that they are closer to children and savages than to an adult, civilized man. They excel in fickleness, inconstancy, absence of thought and logic, and incapacity to reason. Without doubt there exist some distinguished women, very superior to the average man, but they are as exceptional as the birth of any monstrosity, as for example, of a gorilla with two heads; consequently, we may neglect them entirely.

A desire to give them the same education, and, as a consequence, to propose the same goals for them, is a dangerous chimera...The day when, misunderstanding the inferior occupations which nature has given her, women leave the home and take part in out battles; on this day a social revolution will begin, and everything that maintains the sacred ties of the family will disappear.

I'm going to punch this guy in the face. He's also dead, like the first guy, but that's no excuse.
