A Final Farewell
May 24, 2017

The topic of summer is a very odd one due to the natural setting of people’s minds that is “summer is so great” and “I can’t wait for summer” but nobody knows why its is so great. However there are a few key differences that many do not notice.   

One of the main key reasons why summer is so great is the free time that comes with it for schoolkids. Instead of having seven plus hours spent at a school, students get the full twenty four hours to do whatever they please. With freedom for one comes with freedom for all and that allows students to hang out, play games with or even relax with their friends.

Another key part of why summer is so great is the relief of not being on a predetermined schedule. For most people just the thought of an upcoming test can be aggravating and worrying.  Schedules are huge stress factors for most people and with research going on it is extremely important to have these downtimes for kids to cool off.

The third reason that summer is so great is not any physical act but a psychological one. Studies show that with nothing to worry about or to strain about that a person’s mood can increase drastically. A factor what works with this drastically is the basic human nature of sharing emotions with others and when everyone is happy and joyful it is in your nature to be happy as well.  

There are plenty more reasons why summer is so great and is seen as a relief but there are countless more possibilities that oneself can find on why summer is great.
