As if the fact that kids spend almost 10 months of their entire year stuck in some classroom, learning useless information and getting their rights and individuality stripped away wasn't enough torture, somebody thought it'd be a good idea to start off the kids' summer by essentially giving them a project. That is basically what a summer assignment is.
Most people that run these school systems are oblivious to the fact that: A) Kids are not going to magically become more literate by being forced to read some crappy novel B) Most kids don't even read the books they're given, instead relying on the internet (A.K.A. that thing that proved that school is 100% obsolete) to give them a quick summary of it, and doing their 5 page essay on that and C) Most kids would rather NOT think about school during the only time they have off.
It's almost similar to when they send you packets to do during Christmas Vacation, and you were too busy doing those to actually enjoy playing your new video game system (because homework packets make everybody feel jolly!). Except imagine them taking a bite out of your summer instead. That is what summer assignments are like.
Students: "3....2.....1!!!! Summer is finally here!!!!"
Teacher: "Enjoy your summer. By the way, don't forget to write that 10-page essay and complete your summer assignment while the rest of your family is at the pool actually doing something fun!"

Waiting until summer to flirt with, hook up with, or get involved with another. Called a summer slut because for the rest of the year you don't do anything like that. You wait until summer to start.
Stacey is such a summer slut. The whole school year she never went out or flirted with anyone but this passed summer she's hooked up with three different guys.

What is commonly referred to as a "hot flash," but can happen to anyone of any age and of either sex. Occurs when one person feels incredibly warm while everyone else in the room is shivering.
Temperature in the room is 68 degrees.
Alex: It is so hot in here!
Rachel: I'm freezing! You having a personal summer over there?
Similar to senioritis, summer mode is an epiphany of sorts, typically experienced in the spring season (or closer to June in high school), whereby a student realizes it is nearly summer break, and thus becomes a lot more lazy about schoolwork - skipping class, daydreaming, not doing homework, and not studying for tests or exams.
I can't study for this math exam. I'm already in summer mode.
How does Ms. Smith expect us to write a paper in June? Most of us are already in summer mode!
