Living in Minnesota year-round means signing a contract with the devil of bad weather. The first snowfall of winter feels as if Minnesota is a giant snow globe, and the air is filled with happiness. But come January, that picturesque scene turns to a bitter cold city of annoying snowbanks and slippery sidewalks.

The bipolar nature of our weather can grace Minnesotans with abnormally warm weather in March, but this year we're not so lucky. In early March, some cities in Minnesota received more than 10 inches of snow. Most Minnesotans enter March wishing for budding flowers and greener trees, but it looks like we're going to have to wait a little while longer.

Being a college student and having to walk around on slippery sidewalks every day doesn't make it easier to venture into the tundra to an 8 A.M.

Without further ado, here are ten gifs that represent just how Minnesotans feel about this unexpected snowfall.


1. Walking around

The ice is the worst part of a major snowfall. You can't always see it either, so you will most likely end up with a bruised hip or major embarrassment.

2. Walking around pt.2


Seriously, when will this stuff melt?

3. Waking up to snow

An early class you have to walk to with slippery sidewalks? An early commute to work with terrible traffic due to the snow? We would like to request a week-long sick leave, please.

4. Hearing the meteorologist talk about the future snowfall

I know it's their job, but it's hard not to hate the meteorologist that is explaining the hell we will endure with the next snowfall.

5. Accepting the awful news

Again? But it seems like we just had ten inches of snow. Having a taste of what it's like to have spring days to then have the evil entity of snow return is disheartening, to say the least.

6. Checking the always-changing radar

It seems as if no one really knows how much snow is going to come and when it will hit. One moment it's coming at midnight, and the next it's coming at 5 p.m. the next day.

7. In denial

After becoming acquainted with the snow for one too many months, it can be hard to believe that another blizzard is on its way.

8. Making plans to move to a warmer, more practical state.

Why do we stay in this state? I'm leaving, ASAP.

9. Sick and tired of the cold

We've had enough.

10. Rekindling love for Minnesota

The first above-freezing day that first comes after the big snowfall makes us Minnesotans realize the beauty of living in a state with four seasons. Minnesota is an amazing place to live with a unique community. Sometimes, we just need to embrace the snow because we know warmer weather is just around the corner.


There you have it. Ten gifs that represent the struggle that Minnesotans go through during the late winter months.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
