Summertime Sadness V

I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Don Henley, "Boys Of Summer"

Probably, my best summer has come to its end. Actually, I don't feel it at all. I know that warm weather will stay for some weeks more, and we're not gonna have difficult studies in the beginning, so it will feel like summer. I've done everything I planned: I successfully worked in the summer camp, I visited my friends and family in my hometown, I had the most awesome trip (I keep writing about it nowadays, the post's about to be huge!), I did well with checking in my dormitory and even chanced to go to V-Rox!
V-Rox is a big international rock festival founded by the leader of my favorite Russian band “Mumiy Troll” and held in Vladivostok. I went to the festival the last year, but somehow I didn't write about it. This year I went on its first day with my group leader Anton, his girlfriend and my good friend Tatyana and Cherry Lady's boyfriend Andrew. It was really cool! We went there on purpose to see the British rock band Echotape, but the bands before them were excellent too!

Echotape
You know that according to my plans I should have gone to Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk in August, not in July, and Dasha can't help reminding me of it. Nowadays my Sakhalin squad have had a lot of parties as everybody's in hometown now, but everything they do mostly boils down to drinking and sleeping and then it repeats. I have complicated thoughts about it, because well, I love partying, you know, but sometimes it sounds boring to me, though they've had all the fun. Actually I don't regret that I didn't return to Sakhalin in August, because, first of all, I saved a lot of money this way and, secondly, I checked in my dormitory easier because there weren't so many people on the day of my moving in. I don't know why, but I don't feel homesick. I feel like "Ok, it's not our last meeting, we'll drink together another time". I don't feel angry or jealous that I couldn't join my friends. And no, don't call me heartless! Only I can call myself heartless! Neither I'm indifferent. I'm glad that my friends have the opportunity to gather together, but I can't, and it doesn't bother me. I should have other things to worry about. On the contrary I'm thankful for the time I spent with them in July.
Now I should prepare for the beginning of this academic year, but I don't feel like doing anything. Frankly speaking, I don't know what I should prepare. If I run out of copy books, I'll go and buy it. I don't need new clothes, I have all the pens, the bag, the cosmetics... For the first time in my life I don't long for 'back to school' shopping. This is where I feel indifferent. But I actually want to return to studying. We're going to have some really interesting stuff like "The British heritage in the American culture" and something about psychology and teaching. 
Talking about teaching, so I can't wait when I comeback to my kids whom I teach English as a tutor. I'll have the same children, so we'll just go on learning. I want to improve my teaching skills with some papers and videos, so learning will be easier for the kids and teaching will be easier for me. 
I don't think I have anything else to tell you about my summer here, because as I've written, I'm writing the biggest post about my travel that'll be published once it's ready. All in all my summer 2015 was amazing, thank you.
And traditionally! On the last day of summer! Welcome! "Summertime Sadness" by one and only Lana Del Rey!


Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got my red dress on tonight
Dancing in the dark in the pale moonlight
Done my hair up real big beauty queen style
High heels off, I'm feeling alive

Oh, my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzling like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothing scares me anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm feelin' electric tonight
Cruising down the coast goin' 'bout 99
Got my bad baby by my heavenly side
I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight

Oh, my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzling like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothing scares me anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Think I'll miss you forever
Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky
Later's better than never
Even if you're gone I'm gonna drive (drive, drive)

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
