11 Best Things About Spring Weather

Right around this time every year, the weather all of a sudden drastically jumps. Instead of puffy winter jackets, four layers of clothes and hats and scarves, we're suddenly wearing shorts, flip flops, T-shirts sunglasses and need sunscreen to walk to and from class every day. And although some days it jumps back down to colder weather with some rain, the thought that the amount of nice days will be much higher than not so nice ones, makes everyone's day a little better.

With spring just around the corner, the thoughts of warm weather bring spring fever and the thought that summer is only half a semester away, leads to an overall happier and better mood around campus. So here are 11 reasons why spring and warm weather is the absolute best.

1. It makes everyone so much happier.

Scientifically proven or not, I can say with 100% certainty that the start of good weather makes everyone feel a little bit brighter no matter what's going on in other parts of their life.

2. Better clothes.

Picking out a pair of shorts and a tank top is so much easier and so much more fun than trying to find four layers and a pair of pants and socks that all look good together. Also if you're feeling super lazy -- workout clothes and dresses are much more weather appropriate this time of year too.

3. Instead of crying about your 10-page paper inside, you can do it outside.

A little fresh air never hurt your brain or your thinking, and you could find some new inspiration instead of your wall.

4. The pool and the beach may not be open just yet, but that doesn't mean there aren't other fun outside activities.

Pick up games of corn-hole, Frisbee, soccer and more are super common around this time of year, and super fun too.

5. You'll be tanner, and I can't really find any complaints with that.

6. Darty season.

7. Spring break.

8. Warm weather gives way to tons of flowers and blooms that all around make campus look way prettier (and make for some fun Instagrams).

9. Warm weather season also brings the start of music festival season.

From now until fall, festivals such as Ultra, Coachella, Gov. Ball and EDC, EZOO, Firefly and Lollapalooza, will take over your Twitters, Instagrams and Facebooks. Not only that, but it's a great way to have some summer fun and here all your favorite artists at once!

10. If you're a huge baseball fan like me, then when the weather starts to get warm is probably your favorite time of the year because it means that baseball season.

But other big sporting events such as March Madness (#Gocats), The Masters and many more also come around during this time of year.

11. The start of warm weather and spring can only mean one thing -- summer is just a few weeks away.

And who doesn't love the thought of that?

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
