Spring has finally sprung... for the most part, but that doesn't necessarily mean the warmth and sun are back for good. More accurately it means that we have finally reached the season of unpredictable weather. One day it may be rainy and 75, the next it could be snowing and then out of the blue the weather is perfect.
Now I am not complaining about spring, anything is better than the below freezing temperatures experienced from December to March. But spring is an unpredictable season, that can be best described as told by squirrel GIFs.
After a long, cold, winter you and all of your squirrel friends are ready to once again take over the quad and dominate Darty season.
When you first emerge from your squirrel hibernation location, you are amazed at what it feels like to experience sunlight for the first time in months.
But then, all of a sudden, the clouds begin to block the sun…
And instead of dartying all weekend you have to deal with random non-stop thunderstorms.
Because of all the rain, you frantically search everywhere for the umbrella you know you own, only to find out that where you thought you hid your umbrella is in fact where you put your unused textbooks from last semester.
With nothing else to do, you resort back to your natural talent: staying inside, eating and watching Netflix.
And it is a good thing you did because all of a sudden instead of rain it begins to snow.
In the middle of March... or maybe April...
Then the snow turns into rain... which is still horrible, but it also means that it is slightly warmer outside.
Eventually the rain turns into sunshine (with humidity, of course).
Regardless, once you see the sunlight...
...and get over temporary shock from seeing sunlight for the first time in a month...
You begin to fully enjoy everything that is related to warm weather.
Taking part in any activity that requires you to be outdoors.
'
Regardless of how dangerous it could be for your squirrel self.
Because it is springtime, and that means it is nice outside.
But most importantly: it is finally time to properly Darty.
And that means only five more months 'til football.
