10 Reasons Why Spring Is Objectively The Worst Season

It's the most terrible time of the year.

Like any self-respecting basic white girl, I love love love fall. It is the season of sweaters, falling leaves, delicious hot coffee and pumpkin-spice everything -- a total dream. Winter and summer are pretty good too, and they have lots of things to be excited about. I look forward to snow days and Christmas music in the winter and some time by the beach in the summer, but the only thing to look forward to in spring is when it will be over.

Let's face it. Spring is an objectively bad season. It is the period of time where we are tired of winter and longing for summer, but all we get is bipolar weather, rainstorms and the occasional, very much unwelcome snowstorm.

1. Pollen

It seems innocuous at first, maybe even a beautiful sign that sweet summer is approaching, but soon it in everywhere -- in your hair, on your car, in your eyes. Then, your allergies start to kick in, and your stuffy nose and sore throat are making you question why you ever thought this was a good thing.

2. Bipolar weather

Last week it was 80 degrees and sunny everyday, and this week we're expected a blizzard! You can never put away your winter coat for good, and now you're tripping on your sandals as you grab your rain boots for the fourth time in a week. Even worse, how are you supposed to dress when your weather app says it's 30 degrees now, but its going to be 60 at 3 p.m.? This is just pure madness!

3. Spring fashion is... questionable

Spring is the time for wearing summer clothes in sub-summer weather or winter clothes when it is simply too hot. There is no clear "spring fashion", like you find in literally any other season.

4. Summeritis

Winter break really doesn't give students enough time to reset and be ready for the upcoming semester. By the end of spring semester, we are all so burnt out and ready to go home and sleep for about 50 days or so, but we have to continue to keep up with finals exams and assignments that we are *so over* at this point.

5. No fun holidays

Summer: Is a holiday, basically.

Fall: Did someone say Halloween?

Winter: CHRISTMAS and New Years

Spring: Really nothing except for Easter, which isn't fun at all, just a lot of time at church if you're Christian and religious and a minor inconvenience because everything is closed if you're not.

6. Bugs.

Probably the best part about cold weather is not having to worry about creepy crawlies showing up everywhere, but during the later months of spring, our old friends start to come back. No. Thank. You.

7. Rain, rain everyday

Is there anything more depressing than rain everyday for a month? I don't think so. I mean, it was cute the first couple days, but after walking home drenched once, I really don't think I need to do it again, thank you very much.

8. Daylight savings (the bad one)

"Spring forward." The two words that bring shivers to my spine. Losing an hour of sleep is a big deal to this over-tired college student. So what we get an extra hour of sun? I'd much rather be cuddled up in my bed.

9. Finals szn

The last couple weeks of the semester are absolutely killer, and they culminate with the worst part of the school year -- finals. Not only are we all burnt out, now we have to try to reign in any last bits of motivation to try to save our grades one last time.

10. People who can't stop talking about their 'beach bod'

I get it, Janet, you went to the gym three days in a row. You look fine, please don't brag about that crazy fad diet you want to go on. You need actual food.

So there you go, spring sucks. You can't claim otherwise, it's just objectively true.

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
