Reviewing summer 2022

As of today (September 23 -- the first day of autumn), summer 2022 is over!

My main issue with it, much like with the past few summers, is that I was busy enough not to perceive the summer as special/different compared to the rest of the seasons. Actually it was even worse that that: I very-well noticed that this summer was special for everyone else, but definitely not for me. Maybe things would've been different if I had arranged more spare summertime for traveling and whatnot, but I passionately hate traveling (unless there's an important reason behind it). Maybeee things would've been different too if I had simply been to the beach a few times, but I passionately hate sea-swimming, and I hate other beach-related activities such as sunbathing (a.k.a. being voluntarily roasted by the super duper hot summer sun)

  • You might've noticed I sound super whiny
  • I think I sometimes sound a lot like Kyle's cousin Kyle

But me being busy is not always a bad thing. For example I got a lot of stuff done, I think it paid off fairly well 😃

Anyway, here's a list with my top three summer 2022 highlights:
  • Sat down for 2 hours and watched all of Fooly Cooly
  • A homie told me about Samurai Champloo (it's really fucking cool)
  • Played a tiny bit of NFSU2, and one of the songs ("Celebration Song") in the soundtrack peaked my interest... so I ended up listening to it way too many times, aaand it's safe to say this fucking song will be forever stuck in my fucking head. Nothing will ever scream "summer 2022" to me more than this song
Hmm I guess I could say similar things about a few other songs too, but I'd rather not turn this post into a song playlist, haha

You might think that those highlights are too boring, and you might be right, but. There's no "but". I suck. 😐
