The End of the Begining, and the Begining of the End

It's over! School's out and done with. No more teachers, no more books, and all that jazz. It never ends like you think it should, but then what's the fun in that? There's so many memories to laugh and cry and think about that it's almost overloading to the brain! Having "how to be black" lessons, the mind busting "hard" work in honors biology, plans to take over the world, plays to laugh at, music to sing, movies to enjoy, hours on the phone, secret hand shakes, frantic studying for tests, having lunch in the afternoon air (even if the bees did have a grudge against us), beautiful knees, and endless hollers of "Ruthless!" Not to mention tens, no, hundreds of others that would take much to long to put into words. The bell's ring on June 10th signaled the end of another chapter in all our lives, but only to let another begin.

Summer now has the freedom to escape it's bonds and rush down on us at full force! With my summer practically free of any planning what so ever, the monkeys and I set to work to create (dum-da-da-da)
