It was one of those super-duper hot saturdays. One of those days where you woke up with PJ’s stuck to your body with sweat. It was so hot that you could stretch the tar on the street and it would squish like a melting marshmallow. It was so hot that when you went outside you would cook like a strawberry in the oven unless you had sunscreen on. You would quickly shrivel up and die.

Our A/C was running full boar and it sounded like a bucking bull but the thermometer stills read 85.
I went to take a shower. When I hopped in I practically had a heart attack or whatever. We were using so much energy for the A/C that our water heater shut down. I hopped out of the cold water, dried off, and got dressed still feeling like an Ice cube. I didn’t know what was worse. Being too hot or too cold. As I’m walking upstairs I realize something's off. I couldn’t pick out quite what it was so I

One time it was like 200 degrees out and a kid got super woozy while he was running the bases and almost ran out to the right field fence before the coach caught him and got him some water. It was really funny how he wobbled in my opinion but coach didn’t think so, so when we were laughing he barked at us to stop and we all did. We always did, whenever someone didn’t listen they would have to run along the back fence until he said

    It was too goddamn hot in this room, I thought to myself. Too goddamn hot to sleep and too goddamn hot to be productive. I looked at the old alarm clock on my nightstand that I had owned since I was born and sent a curse or two to the ceiling. It was 4 am and once again I found myself aggressively not sleeping. It had been like this all summer.…

    Earlier in the day, I remembered seeing my peer’s faces radiate with excitement as they walked into the building as I begrudgingly dragged my feet in. Today was my yellow belt, and my very first, taekwondo promotional test. Taekwondo was my first attempt at an organized sport since last year’s fifth grade basketball camp. I had been reluctant to join another sports activity since then because I remembered the embarrassment of missing a simple layup in a drill.
