today has been the perfect summer day. you can smell the salt from the ocean in the breeze, the whirring sound of the ceiling fan calms you, the cicadas are singing so loud it almost hurts your ears, the sea is sapphire blue & the water feels like velvet, you can feel the sun burn your skin as you lay on the verandah eating cold watermelon that makes your teeth twinge, salt & sand sticks to your back, and droplets of sweat gather on the inside of your bent knees as the sun glares off your shiny skin.
today is new years eve and it's crazy to think about how the year has flown by. next year brings huge changes; i move to the big city, away from my family and small beach town, and i start university. i'm scared but very excited.
this evening my boyfriend and i are going to the night markets and fun fair, and then going to my friend's new years eve party - i hope it will be a nice, laid-back evening.
whatever way you choose to spend your night, whether it's out in the wild, crazy night or inside snuggled up with a movie, i wish you a beautiful night. happy new year!
