Winter!

Winter is coming so fast; it’s just crazy! Just like last week we were all wearing shorts and t-shirts. The leaves are falling and the trees are becoming bare. It’s a sad yet happy time of year. I love when the leaves change colors; it’s so beautiful! I love the weather when it’s about 75 degrees outside and not windy. The past couple days it’s been bitterly cold, and it’s driving me crazy. I’m just not ready for winter yet. I don’t really know what to expect since I’m at college for the first time. My roommate is already playing games with me with the heater. Every time I turn it down, she turns it back up. We don’t agree on a happy medium temperature. Fall is fun because you get to enjoy those last days outside in the nice weather. You can still go outside in a sweatshirt and be comfortable. When it starts getting too cold to where I get cold in a sweatshirt, I don’t ever want to go outside. I’m so glad there are skywalks that go to the academic buildings so I don’t have to freeze going to class. I’m glad I’m not attending a big campus where I’d have to walk a mile to each class; that seems insane to me. The weather change is good, but sometimes I wish it’d just stay nice out! I don’t play in the snow anymore like I used to, so I feel like I have nothing to do during the winter time! There isn’t anything fun to do outside like there is in the summer. I’ll miss running outside and being able to just sit outside. I love the outdoors, so winter just isn’t much fun for me. Right now is perfect when I can walk outside without freezing, but what happens when December comes around? I can drive home on weekends if I want to right now, but I can’t in the winter because of snow and ice. That’s just not cool. Right now we can walk everywhere in Waverly because it’s so nice, but it a month we wont be able to without freezing. I just don’t like that. Winter is no fun, and I wish it could stay spring all the time!
