Everyone says that summer is too short. And they're right. Which is why we need to celebrate every sunray it gives us. So to start things off right, we at Bored Panda decided to commemorate the 1st of June with memes that perfectly describe summertime.

From putting on shorts to sitting inside the house with the AC set to 65, here's a list of things we'll go through before September.

When you're done scrolling, fire up these funny comics about summer problems too!

Right? I used to live in the middle of nowhere surrounded by fields. Peaceful and quiet. Moved to a place near woods - the NOISE! Hadn't experienced full-on dawn chorus before then. Was a teensy bit of a shock.

I'd rather listen to birds singing, than constant traffic noise, sirens from police/ambulance every 30 to 40 minutes, drunk idiots screaming on the parking lot and listening to music with their cars in the middle of the night.... I really would rather live near a forest than in the City :(

My level of tolerance towards birds is way higher than it is towards humans. Birds can s**t on my car as much as they like, they still manage to cheer me up. On the other hand, I barely accept that my neighbors remind me of their existence. Especially at 5 AM.

God forbid you sleep with your windows open, it's so frickin' noisy! Birds, bugs, frogs, whatever going all night long and they all just get noisier during the morning when they really wake up. I can just hear them having drunken parties at night about nest building and who got a bigger or nicer nest and "Why did you step on the eggs, clumsy? Now I have to start all over." and other stuff.

My street is lined with trees and as soon as it starts to get light the little feathery buggers start a chirping and a cooing. I'm often still awake to hear them.

Birds and those small frogs...not sure if it's a tropical thing. The smaller the frog the louder the sound.

Of course, keep in mind that the seasons in the Northern Hemisphere are the opposite of those in the Southern Hemisphere. This means that in places like Argentina and Australia, June is actually the beginning of winter. The winter solstice in the Southern Hemisphere is June 20 or 21, while the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, is December 21 or 22.

We have seasons because Earth is tilted on its axis relative to the orbital plane, the invisible, flat disc where most objects in the solar system orbit the sun. Earth's axis is an invisible line that runs through its center, from pole to pole. Earth rotates around its axis.

ADVERTISEMENT

In June, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, the sun's rays hit us for a greater part of the day than in winter. This means we get more hours of daylight. Conversely, in December, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, there's fewer hours of daylight.

Seasons not only impact our vacation schedule but also have an enormous influence on vegetation and plant growth. Winter typically has cold weather, little daylight, and limited plant growth. But in spring, plants sprout, tree leaves unfurl, and flowers blossom. Since summer is the warmest time of the year and has the most daylight, plants grow quickly during this time of year. But in autumn, temperatures drop, and many trees lose their leaves.

I'm a reading teacher. When school is in session I work from 7am to 7:30 most week days and I work Sundays as well. I will also be spending a portion of my summer creating a reading program for my school.... y'all, summer break is necessary to keep your kids and your kids' teachers alive and functioning haha

The four-season year, however, is typical only in the mid-latitudes; areas that are neither near the poles nor near the Equator. The farther north you go, the bigger the differences in the seasons. Helsinki, Finland, for example, sees 18.5 hours of daylight in the middle of June. In mid-December, however, there is daylight for less than 6 hours. Athens, Greece, on the other hand, is in southern Europe, and has a smaller variation—14.5 hours of daylight in June and 9.5 hours in December.

But whatever your summer is like, you should find something relevant on this list!

Hah, that really is true for me. Though even with a tan people are saying 'wow, you're so pale'. My dears, you should see me in the winter.

Used to like it when I was a kid. Now, I'm like "just grab what you need and run away from this Antarctic"!

If you’re a redhead like me, there is no way to avoid sunburns. I will get them somehow no matter what I do.

Office meetings were the worst in the summer. The managers LOVED to rub it in our faces how nice and warm it is outside while we had to sit under fluorescent lights, breathing in recycled air and mulling over data.
