Although this winter has been relatively mild compared to most, Mother Nature has still thrown some weird weather at us and I do not like it. Sleet, rain, slush, unidentifiable flying objects; we've had it all. I don't care if this is a sign that global warming is really happening, because this weather sucks. Even California, the place where the temperature is always perfect, has experienced some "cold" fronts and even rain! I'm not usually a complainer, but I gotta get a few things off my chest about this incorrigible weather.
1. It's way too cold outside, but scorching in all buildings.
Somehow, there doesn't seem to be a happy medium. Layer up cause this season's about to get sweaty.
2. That awkward penguin shuffle you have to do when you aren't sure if it's icy or not.
Gotta be careful out there, man. If one person in the squad goes down, the whole squad goes down with them.
3. My hair... it's ruined!
Hours of work gets ruined with a single drop of precipitation. #curlyhairprobs
4. It always seems to ruin those perfect plans.
Whether it's pouring during a fest or zero degrees walking to the bar, weather greatly impacts my motivation to have fun. The weather is the enemy.
5. It takes Netflix and chill to a whole new level.
It's not about just hangin' out anymore, it's about staying warm.
6. Having random wet spots on the floor that you inevitably step in.
It may be a few drops of melting snow, but man, does that stuff get to me. It completely ruins a good pair of socks!
7. It messes with your emotions.
One minute it's 50 degrees and the next it's -10. How am I supposed to stay happy when the weather is as bipolar as Katy Perry's "Hot N Cold" lyrics.
8. Having to walk to class is the root of all evil.
I'll do anything to avoid being outside more than I have to. If that means taking the longer route through several buildings I'm OK with it.
9. My perfect, beautiful hair!!!
Seriously, why you gotta ruin my perfectly straight hair?
10. The desire to look nice, ever, has completely vanished.
Staying warm is the price we pay for beauty. Sweatpants become a necessity and hoodies add that extra pizzazz.
11. Embarrassing sweat stains after a trek to class.
I can't tell you how many times I've sprinted to class and immediately began to profusely sweat before I even sit down.
12. Snow. I hate it.
I don't care if you like to shred some fresh pow, I'd rather not have to wear spandex under my jeans.
13. Having to wear a million layers for a ten minute walk.
Better safe than sorry.
14. Cabin fever is real.
When it's too cold to do anything, isolation becomes real. Send help.
15. Always being too hot or too cold.
You just can't get away from extreme body temperatures. I either can't feel my face or think I'm having a heat stroke.
So, go ahead and let it sNOw, but maybe not.
