Summer is upon us once again in all its glowering, radiant glory. The days are longer, brighter and hotter.

The best thing about summer for any teenager is the holidays- three months of sheer bliss and euphoria.

To us, the word summer is synonymous to movies, sleepovers, friends and getting up at 11 in the morning.

True, the summer break is a time meant to relax and unwind from all the school stress but it is also a time to indulge in a bit of recreation and creativity.

Try something new this summer and have fun! Why not take up a pottery class or an art workshop? Join up at a gym or a library. Dig out your dad's old camera and have a go at photography. Put together a scrapbook, start a blog or even try your hand at making a mini-movie. Persuade your family to go on a group expedition or a picnic.

Immerse yourself in the cultural extravaganza Bahrain is playing host to.

And for those of you going on a vacation, enjoy yourselves and soak in the culture and atmosphere of a whole new country.

Do a bit of background reading about the sites you're going to visit or just be adventurous and go mountain-climbing or kayaking!

But do remember, wherever you may be this summer, to stock up on the sunscreen, hats and water bottles to protect yourself from the intense heat and stay safe.

There are a million ways to have a good time this summer- all it takes is some ingenuity, imagination and a zest for life! Have a great summer!
