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."

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
