16 Reasons We HATE Winter

Remember that time we said we couldn’t wait for fall to blow over? We lied.

Rain and snow, grey skies, cold temperatures…how are we supposed to be excited about our education in this environment? This whole “cold weather” thing needs to defrost and move out. Like, before we hear about a groundhog being afraid of his outline on the ground. K thanks. Here are a few reasons why:

1. Everyone starts getting all cozy and adorable and all you want is a cuddle buddy for those cold, lonely nights.

2. It can be a serious struggle to find motivation after the 3 week break.

3. Major frizz in the hair department.

Which means we all have felt this way before.

4. The possibility of slipping on your way to class has increased exponentially.

5. Your coat sometimes clashes with your outfit so you have to convince people it’s a new trend and you’re totally hip.

6. Leaving the comfort of a warm bed to walk to class is NOT appealing. Like, at all.

7. Leaving your bed for anything is also NOT appealing.

8. Shopping for clothes is a headache thanks to

• A.  those bulky winter coats we have to carry around the store, hoping to not knock over anything.

• B. the multiple layers we have to shed to try on a shirt  

9. If you’re seriously craving an iced coffee or frappuccino, everyone judges you in the coffee line.

10. For some *ridiculous* reason, this weather convinces people to wear pyjamas in public. So. Much. Flannel.

11. Shoe options have resorted to neutral and dark colors, because those are the only ones approved for winter weather

12. But we’re still expected to get good grades during this term.

13. If you get stuck by the door in a restaurant, you have to bundle up to eat.  

14. All the cuties around campus are bundled up in huge coats, covering their faces, and depriving the female student body. This is the true tragedy of winter folks.

15. Looking around at everyone in your classes when you realize

16. And to top it all off, the snowy, all bundled up winter selfies and scenery pics cloud up the insta-feed.

We’ll see you in April for some more whining.
