Dear Pennsylvania Weather, Get It Together

STOP.

Dear Pennsylvania Weather, Get It Together
@rooney_the_schneagle

Dear weather,

Please stop acting out of season. We're are honestly tired of this. On the western side of the state, we had one day of 50 degree weather and then got slammed with snow for the first and second days of spring. We do not appreciate this.

The eastern side of the state just got hit so hard that schools let out early. This is supposed to be spring. I want to wear all of my cute clothes, not go stomping through the slushy streets in my puffer coat that makes me look like a giant marshmallow. We are honestly sick of this.

A few weeks ago, we had really nice weather, and that was great.

A few days it was warm enough to go outside without a heavy coat on. I would really appreciate going back to that sort of weather. As a college student, I cannot do anything without leaving my dorm room, so having the weather nice enough that I won't break my neck when I step outside really helps.

It's hard enough lugging all of my books around. I really don't need the extra challenge of three inches of slush on the sidewalks because it is impossible for my campus to keep the sidewalks clear when it is snowing so hard.

What would be desperately appreciated would be a few weeks of mild weather.

Rain is understandable.

It is spring, after all. Give us some time to start planting flowers. Let the sun shine often. It would be nice if we could keep those biting winds down to a minimum. Then, we could work our way up to some nice 70 degree days in maybe two or three weeks. We could really use that.

The winter blues are really bogging us down.

It's hard enough that all of us college students just got through midterms, but the end of the semester is coming up fast, and that means finals and term papers, so this Seasonal Affective Disorder isn't going to be working for us anymore.

Thanks,

Everyone who lives in Pennsylvania

Oh yea, Christmas. It’s time to take out all of the decorations and Christmas themed things that have been sitting in the attic since last year; it’s time to make a reappearance. So, here are 10 things that happen the second Thanksgiving is over.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
