10 Reactions Michiganders Have When Winter Shows Up

Winter is the death of us all.

The beautiful fall leaves are gone, and its time to whip out the winter jackets and gloves. With the coming of snow comes many different emotions and reactions but there's nothing we can do to keep the snow from coming.

If you're from Michigan, you can relate to these reactions with the winter months approaching:

1. "Where's my vacation home in Florida?"

Because snow isn't any fun unless you're five years old again. There isn't anything fun about driving in the snow, falling in the snow, or just being cold in general.

2. Saying prayers for those traveling in the snow.

The only thing on people's mind when you get into your vehicle is, "please let me get there alive." This video is of the 150 car pile up from January of last year, which I was reminded after the 30-40 pile up on I-75 the other day. Stay safe.

3. F*ck yeah! No mosquitoes!

Because that's literally the only thing great about winter.

4. Cringing when you look out the window in the morning before having to go to work.

5. Trying to find all the layers you possibly can before you leave the house.

6. When you take the first step outside.

FML FML FML FML FML FML. I got snow in my shoe.

7. When there's 7 feet of snow and they still won't cancel class.

I might die on my way to class but that's okay because at least I'll be educated when it happens!

8. When you only have to go outside for a little bit so you don't wear a coat.

9. "Can you shovel the driveway?"

10. But most of all, you try to tell yourself...

Because no matter how cold it gets or how much snow there is outside, work and school aren't going to magically disappear. Try to make the best of it and maybe your winter won't be so miserable.

Or try to move to the Carribean...

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
