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."

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
