Summer has just ended but its memories shall always remain. Yes, it was only three short months but it was three short months during which every day felt like a Saturday. I spent most of my days just listening to music, reading non-required books, and saturating my brain with the influx of movies released during the summer season.
The album that I had on replay during the entire duration of break was Bon Iver’s self-entitled album, which is the pseudonym of Justin Vernon. It’s falsetto virtuoso Justin Venon’s sophomore effort. Vernon sings each song with so much raw emotion that the entire album is a wave of feelings drowning the listener.
As for movies, I recommend the final Harry Potter movie. I cried from the beginning to the credits. And if you’re more into the written word, Before I Go to Sleep by S.J. Watson is a book that will not only keep you up all night reading but also be on your mind for the entire summer.
If you have some free time on your hands, make sure to catch up on all the great music, movies and books that were released this past summer!
