10 Real Reactions To The First Snow

It's That Time of Year Again

10 Real Reactions To The First Snow
loe.org

The weather outside is frightful all right, thanks to this winter's first snow. Which one of these 10 reactions to the first snow were you guilty of doing?

1. Denial.

This isn't happening. I refuse to believe there is snow falling out of the sky. There is no way it can be this soon. It is still fall, I promise I still see some colorful leaves left on the tree. It's not even close to Christmas, therefor anyone who tells me it is snowing is a liar.

2. Annoyance.

I don't understand how everyone can forget how to drive right when it snows. Are you kidding me. What makes you think that going 70 mph and then slamming on your gas pedal, with a crap ton of snow under you, is a good idea?

3. Nervousness.

My car is not in a garage, and I don't remember the last time I checked my breaks. Even if my car starts tomorrow I might just run right off the road into a snow bank instead of making it to school.

4. Excitement.

Finally, it's snowing! I get to build snowmen, go skiing, and make snow angels again.

5. Wanting to hibernate.

It is officially cold enough to crack out my parka and fuzzy mittens. But, all I want to do is stay in my bed, watching Netflix, and drinking hot coco.

6. Indifferent.

I'm more concerned about food than snow.

7. Devastation.

Why did this have to happen so soon? I didn't even get to do cute fall things this year. What a horrible grey pit I have to live in for the next six months.

8. Nostalgic for summer.

I miss sunlight. I miss being out on the lake, and watching the water shimmer. I miss wearing shorts, and I hate lugging around all of this heavy gear.

9. Regret.

Why did I not grab my winter jacket and snow boots from home when I had the change. What was I thinking?

10. Realizing it is socially acceptable to play Christmas music.

You start screaming out your car window, "DECK THE HALLS WITH BOUGHS OF HOLLY, Fa la la la la la la la la."

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
