I went to Sonisphere in Helsinki, mostly to see Metallica and Machine head. During Machine Head's show I lost my shoe in the circle pit and never saw it again. Then, while listening to Metallica, with only one shoe, someone stole my water bottle.
I walked back to my cousins' apartment and went to bed. I woke up and felt pain all over my body. And to be honest, it was the most awesome evening I've had this summer.
I'm pretty cool

I live next to a river. It has a great waterfall you can slide down (angle not to scale):

My dad and I ignored the neighbours' warnings of sewage being dumped into the river and went for a summer swim. We swam, and swam, and swam a bit more. All jolly good fun. My dad said:
"See son, I told you the water would be fine."
A few seconds later I saw a dead fish floating slowly down the river. And that's when I began to question the true nature of the "mud" I was standing on.

This summer, I went to Fuerte Ventura, a island where strong wind is always present. The weather was really good. Most of the time, it was 35 degrees Celcius and you didn't even notice it because of the cool breeze. Too bad there was a side-effect: You wouldn't feel the sun burning on your skin! This summer, I found out that your body can be white, brown and red at the same time!
At least there was a aloe-vera farm, where we bought a lot of oozy stuff to put on our burnt arms and legs. It really worked!

This year, I visited sunny Ireland. You’d think I was being sarcastic but it really was sunny enough to get my arms pretty badly burned. We thought sea kayaking would be a good idea. The sun was shining, the sea was fairly calm and we even got to see a dolphin and a few puffins. On our way back, however, the wind had picked up. This, on top of the turning tide worked against us to make our progress agonisingly slow. My arms were so abused that I could barely lift myself out of the kayak.
I’d do it again.

Just can't resist putting another poem (mostly for fun, summer related, runescape related, and under 100 words (95 words))
___
In the summer's beach
I rest on the hot sand
My water vial at reach
and my parasol at hand
With this tropical headdress
I got from Solomon’s store
On my head it now rest
And I will get some more
With this I grab my staff
And cast water wave
For the surfers’ laugh
And the thrill they crave
Gross out by Graardor
By the swimsuit he wears
The sun-monocles I wore
Hides him with these pairs
With the sun goes down
The party comes tonight
Everyone dances around
And what a happy sight

Last summer me and my family went to Disney in Orlando for 2 weeks, driving on our way to one of the parks in our rental car we passed a couple toll booths. My dad handed over a note and was about to ask for some change. As he was mid-sentence a motorbike engine revved. The result? My dad went: "Can I have some CHANGE PLEASE?!"-literally shouting the last bit at the top of his voice! haha.
Me, my sisters and my mum wouldn't shut up laughing for over an hour afterwards, my dad was very embarrassed! :D

Greetings Jagex, and everyone else reading!
My summer has been terrible. I have viral strep throat and it just won't go away. I can't even go outside because of my pounding headaches, and sore throat. All of my friends are down at the beach pickin' up the ladies ;) while i'm at home sipping on hot tea to cure my throat. Summer 2012 is TERRIBLE FOR ME :(

Read through roughly the whole first page, and got a good general idea of what I should write my favorite summer tale about.
SOOO... here goes nothing:
After lunch at my summer camp, it was time for the girls to head to the pool, so all the guys made their way down to the field to play baseball. I got the chance to play second base, so after a few players were up to bat, one of the counselors decided he wanted to bat. He hit it near right field, and was just rounding to second base when I caught the ball. After catching it and getting him out, he tried to stop running and ended up tripping over my foot (which was quite hilarious xD).
EDIT: Just realized I had 99 words lol
