The worst part about going to school in a place like Kentucky is the weather. You never know what to expect, in the middle of December it may be 80 degrees, in the middle of July is might only hit 60.
While some of this weather may be beneficial there is nothing worse than snow in Spring and every college student I know has the exact same thoughts about this.
1. It was 70 and sunny two days ago
Less than 48 hours ago you were pulling out your Chacos, hanging up your Eno and slapping on the tanning oil. Now you are dressed head to toe in down feathers and living with a fear of slipping on ice.
2. I already put away my winter clothes
Those few days of warm weather and a trip to the beach for spring break had you convinced it was the end of parka season. You now spent your morning digging through your closet for your snow boots and searching under your bed for your warmest scarf.
3. Do I really have to go to class?
There is something about sunny days that make you want to get up and get outside. But the second those temps drop, going to class seems like the worst idea you have ever heard.
4. Why didn't we have a snow day?
The inch of snow on the sidewalks could cause some serious hazards on our way to class. Come on, why are you risking the safety of your students?
5. How many weeks until summer?
All the sudden the Spring semester seemed to get a whole lot longer. Someone start a countdown on their phone because if this snow sticks around any longer I'm not sure we will make it.
There's nothing better than coming back from spring break bronzed and refreshed just to have to throw on your parka again. So please Kentucky, I ask for all the students here at UK, start bringing back the sun!
