The last month of summer is upon us. Summer has flown by, and it’s weird to think that this may be my last ‘summer’ as after this upcoming school year, I’m graduating and hopefully finding full time work. But let’s not stress out about that now. Let’s instead look at the fun things I’ve got going on in August. There’s not a lot, but there never is.
- Of course my number one is The Defenders, hitting Netflix on the 18th. I’m done work by then so I have nothing stopping me from waking up at 3am to watch it. I can’t wait to see the four heroes team up and fight together because I’m sure their dynamic is going to be hilarious. I’m also very excited to see all the secondary characters. I’ve missed Trish and Foggy and Claire. I hope we see a lot of them.
- The band Neon Trees announced last week that they are back and that in early August (like, in the next few days) we’ll be getting a taste of their new music. I loved their last album, Pop Psychology, so I’m hoping their new music is just as good.
- I finish my work term in the middle of the month. Though I wouldn’t complain if I worked for a bit longer (mo’ money), I guess it would be good to relax for a few weeks before school starts up. Maybe finish my novel editing before I get others to read it.
So that’s it. Not an exciting month at all. I was supposed to also be going to New York state for a weekend away, but I don’t think that’s happening for me, so…I’ll just be at home, taking in the last of summer in front of the TV, like usual. I know I got a great job over the summer that I am grateful for, but I do wish I had done something fun this summer, gone somewhere exciting, even for a few days. Summer 2017 did not impress. But I’ll stop being bitter now. I have a whole month with essentially no plans, so who knows what may happen! There, that’s positive!
Hopefully you’ve got exciting plans for August? Let me know in your own MLA post!
That’s all for now!
P.S. I’m still looking for a fall internship, so please pray for me, y’all. I need them good vibes.

I am going to a wedding in August and in August entering my last year of college.
Weddings can be fun if there’s good music! The wedding I went to last month disappointed me, so hopefully the one you attend will be better!
I went yesterday and was quite enjoyable. For me, it was for a ready for two people that I have gotten to know two years ago so it did mean something that my family was invited. Good songs as well.
That’s great!
This is my fourth wedding. My first wedding, I was the flower girl in. The second wedding, I attended was a Jewish wedding so that was unique in that way. Third wedding, don’t remember much about it except for the reception. Then there is the fourth wedding I have been to
Oooh, I’ve never been a flowergirl! I’ve been to five weddings, I think, but none of them have really stood out to me….
Congrats in advance on graduating! Best of luck for finding an internship too, that’s what I’ve been doing this summer and it can feel like forever until you get any responses at all. Sometimes those can be rejections, but that’s life… the right one will come knocking at your door eventually! x
I hope so! I’ve applied to so many but it’s hard, especially with the guidelines from the school.
