We have counted down the days till summer since Ski Week, and now that summer’s finally here, students hasten to solidify their summer plans. As the last days of school dwindle away, students make plans to spend the summer rescuing sea turtles in Costa Rica or tanning in Tahiti. But fun events are available at home in the Bay Area, in the form of summer festivals and faires.
If you came within 20 meters of a senior applying for college this past year you knew the right move was to turn around and walk the other way. I admit, most of us became monsters during the process and it was not until the first of May that many of us returned to our normal states of mind.
