31 Reasons Summer Is Better Than Winter

The official countdown has begun. March 22nd was the first day of Spring. And though there was recently an accumulation of about six to seven inches of snow here in Philadelphia, my heart still yearns for summer days.

With the bitter cold and nor'easter-filled winter we've unfortunately encountered, I'd say it's time for a transition to "better days," as I like to call them. I plan on spending the next two and a half months reminiscing on summer things.

Here's 31 reasons why summer is better than winter, and also 31 reasons why I just love summer in general.

1. No more cold leather seats.

2. Kiss that cold after-the-shower-wrath GOODBYE.

3. Blistex won't be a necessity anymore...

4. ...and neither will your tanning membership.

5. You'll no longer confined to your bed, binge-watching Netflix.

6. No more eating your weight in snacks due to boredom.

7. Or drinking, for that matter.

8. There isn't a drop of snow on the ground.

9. Summer clothes > Winter clothes.

10. All of the good fruit is in season.

11. Playa Bowls are A1, once again.

12. Socks are barely needed in the summer.

13. Seasonal ice cream/Italian ice places re-open

14. The beach!

15. The beach at night!

16. The sun doesn't set till like 8 pm. Bye seasonal depression.

17. BBQs.

18. Day drinks.

19. Driving with the windows down, blasting music.

20. Better music in general.

21. Outdoor concerts.

22. Late-night bonfires without freezing your a** off.

23. No school.

24. More sleep.

25. More free time.

26. Everyone is home from school.

27. More time with family.

28. Fairs

29. Fair Foods

30. Sleeping in a controlled freezing room is extremely different than just sleeping in a freezing room.

31. Freedom.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
