The temperature was in the 50s all day today and while any northerners reading this might be laughing and shaking their heads because I think that's cold, it doesn't change the fact that I think that's cold. In honor of the drop in temperatures, I figured I'd list the reasons why I love cold weather and the reasons why I don't.

5 Reasons I hate cold weather:

1. It's so cold. Why? Why must I have to freeze my butt off half of the year? Who gave the atmosphere the right to be this way? I don't like it.

2. It's not even technically 'winter' yet and it's already in the 40s and 50s. Umm, no. I do not approve of this. Give me my 70-degree weather back. I want more than three days of it.

3. I can't escape it because I have to walk everywhere. In the cold. I have to walk to class, to meetings, to see friends. And I always show up looking like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Not today, pal. From now on, I'll just stay under my covers, thank you very much.

4. OK, but why does cold weather = wind? Do you know what wind is good for? Nothing. All it does is make my cold bum colder and my hair look like I'm a Medusa wannabe.

5. You know how people say winter is better than summer because if you just add more layers you'll be warmer? Lies. I have gone out wearing leggings, jeans, two long-sleeve shirts, a hoodie, a wool coat, two pairs of socks (and one was a wool pair), boots, a scarf, and a wool beanie, and I'm still cold.

I. DON'T. LIKE. THE. COLD.

There you have it! Could you relate?
