// it's time //

It's time. After all the songs and pictures saved, all the talks and dreams of it, all the expectations, Summer is here. With the countless longings my heart had for this carefree season it seems surreal and dreamy that it's now finally a reality and something to revel in and relish.

It's a time when the best idea in the world is to do like I did with my crew and skate all afternoon, listen to Dr. Dog and Best Coast in the evening air, have a bonfire beneath the stars, and, best of all, cruise with the windows down while American Spirits are smoked and Cults was cranked for the first time this year. 

I know this was the first sublime summery weekend of many.

Everything is too good to be true.

// leisure //

The days have finally come when you sit around in your pyjamas with your bro's drinking coffee and enjoying breakfast until one in the afternoon, when the sun drenches and warms your body all day long, and when the nights have the brightest moon imaginable. 

I have waited for this all year.

// summer's coming //

Guys. It smells like Summer. It feels like Summer. I think it's fair to say it really almost is Summer. And that just takes my breath away. Reeling it in with some Tribe Called Quest, long drives, so much skateboarding, colourful paintings, talks till dawn, and spontaneous adventures.
