Summer In Your 20s vs Summers Past

Remember the movie Now and Then? It was about a bunch of old ladies reminiscing about their past and a really fun summer they once had, because now their lives suck and everyone is uptight, busy, and/or boring. Basically, the movie’s premise makes so much more sense now because that is life. Summer used to be fun and now it is just life. BUMMER. Here are the differences between summer then, and summer now. RIP fun.
