Honestly, the first thing that comes to my mind, is playing with all of my neighbourhood friends. The rushing back home right after the school day was over and then out again, knocking on all of your friends’ doors with a ball under your arm to see if they’re home yet. Those were good times.

Playing LEGO!!! At the age of 20 people said to me that I was too old for that! Now I'm 28 and I have a baby, a few more years and I could play again with her! Can't wait! :)

Climbing the trees! I was a master back then! I've stopped for a while when I encountered a beehive in one of them (it was so scary that I just jumped without looking, and I wasn't sitting on the lowest branch, of course (also, I had a lollypop in my hand so I was afraid that bees will love it)). I guess I could do it now too... But I'm not that brave anymore!

not being worried about what others think of me. Just being able to live without worrying about how i looked, how i acted and how i dressed. also the feeling of being free from depression. since i was 10 it hasnt ever gone away and i have been in a mental hospital for attempting suicide and cutting. 4 months clean from cutting and a year from yesterday i was admitted to the the hospital. worst week of my life.

What I loved about childhood: Social media didn't exist, I wasn't a slave to my cell phone, I got to sleep in for 3 months during summer, doing whatever I wanted without a care in the world, flashlight tag, not worrying about the rejection that comes with dating, getting to play in other neighborhoods without fear of being kidnapped, exploring, building forts, climbing trees, and finally, being able to experience so many new things that I now take for granted.

Carelessly playing with my friend without being judged on anything.
Going to bed at night without the endless train of thoughts and worries.
Taking riding lessons without thinking "Do I look fat!? Or maybe like an idiot?!"
Inventing new games in the blink of an eye without thinking too much!

Those were the days... when our biggest fear was to be the last kid chosen for the soccer team.

The first memory I have, I was maybe 2 years old, on a hot summer,s day, and my mum let me run naked in the house. The feeling of my long hair on my shoulders and back was amazing! I never felt something so nice! Not caring, or realising, that I was naked and running free in my house! I miss those feelings.

I miss being me. Life seems to make you something you aren't. I miss the feeling of being alone. Yeah, I was an only child. I miss staring out my window, daydreaming while listening to movie soundtracks (not the normal ones, Gettysburg, Hunt For Red October, Glory, etc.) It may seem sad to want that, it is, kinda, but I miss that.

I miss going to my grandparent's house afterschool everyday and watching Dumbo over and over without caring if I was missing homework. I didn't have to stress about my future or how many calories I was eating or what I wore. I could scream the lyrics to all the Disney songs and my grandparents still loved me and never judged me.

I wish I could go back to the summer trips my Dad and I took when we went to the mountain country-side for vacation. Ther's a mountain near Żegiestów called Hollow-Huge (straight translation from Polish). We used to get up at 4 AM, climb above the river valley and eat breakfast in the raising sunlight watching the sleeping village covered in fog. We ate berries on the way, walked up with sticks like Hobbits and going back I always put my head under the freezing mountain stream. I miss that time.

I loved running around chasing fireflies after dark in the little town in New York where I grew up. The smell of fresh cut grass, and sitting on the patio with a cold glass of home made lemonade, watching a summer storm with lightning flashing and thunder rolling. Going to the drive in movie in my pj's and playing in the kiddie park under the huge screen, and never remembering any movies because I fell asleep in the back seat!

Laughing out loud and playing hard with all the children in my neighborhood. I didn't need to think who the person was, we just had fun playing tag together. That's how we began to create a genuine friendship. Nowadays, people choose who they want to be with and what advantage they could take. Once you got into trouble, they leave you.

When afternoon naps were a must (even though I hated them at the time)... Action movies were a 'no no' unless it had Jackie Chan in... My feet were stained purple from climbing mulberry trees... building go karts (among other things) with the neighborhood kids. Playing hide and go seek until 10pm... Perhaps I can just relive my childhood?

Building houses with big old tree branches. There weren't many good places to build small branch houses when I was little, but know, when I'm older it's almost impossible to find one! I need bigger place which is well-hidden from other people: a difficult task in the city. Still, I think it will find its place in this summer to-do-list.
