Many tend to scoff at my unpopular opinion of my love for cold weather, and while this fondness hasn't gone away, I must admit that I am getting a little tired of the random snow storms and frequent nor'easters we have been having lately. I am slipping on the ice far too often than I'd enjoy, classes across campus have become a trek, and it's just been miserable.

I often have to remember a simpler time, one where the sun was shining and more people on campus were smiling. That simpler time? When the weather was above 65 degrees. And since we are reaching the beginning of April, I thought it would be nostalgic to reflect on what we can all look forward to at Villanova in only a couple more weeks.

1. Hanging out at the Oreo

Warm weather means basking in the sun around the Oreo between classes, which proves to be a nice break for many Villanova students like me who need time to destress!

2. Playing frisbee with friends at the Riley Ellipse

What could be a better way to get exercise and spend time with friends than hanging out and throwing around a frisbee by the Oreo?

3. Eating outside Dougherty or Conn

Nothing beats leaving the air-conditioned Pit and Cyber Lounge and soaking in some Vitamin D while doing so.

4. Having class outside

Out of the generosity of their hearts, hopefully, some of our professors will allow class outside, a perfect setting with all of the beauty Villanova and the weather will have to offer.

5. No longer being judged for having iced coffee from Holy Grounds when it's cold

In a few weeks, it will finally be "iced coffee" weather according to some, where drinking iced coffee is finally acceptable with the weather. Though definitely sad, my anticipation for this is certainly real.

6. More dogs on campus

Warm weather = more doggos on campus = more happiness on campus. Who can complain?

7. Wrapping up the school year
