I know, I know, it's been a while . I could make excuses - college , been busy , lalalala - but honestly I was just being lazy. My first year ends in two days, its pretty iconic and whats even better is -Summer Holidays!!
With the temperatures rising beyond 40 and my friends refusing to step out in the open its gonna be a blast*hint -sarcasm*. But seriously who cares ?
I LOVE summer.Despite of the heat and sweat and drowsiness and occasional hatred towards everything that exists, favorite season of all time .And guess what, this summer I rediscovered an old flame . WATERMELON( What ? Were you expecting a human being or something?)
What's even better than watermelon , you ask ? Frozen watermelon.
Actually frozen anything when you're morbidly dehydrated , but lets start with the watermelon okay?
The Verdict: It's comforting, like ice cream on a hot summer day .Oh wait - It is ice cream on a hot summer day :)
