In this blog, I will talk about what I hate about spring. I might mention what I love, if I can think of anything, which is highly unlikely. First, we’ll start off with the weather. Spring is really the only season when we never really know what we’re going to get. For example, we look outside on March 20^th to find the ground covered in snow, when at this point last year, we were seeing 80 degree days. It is rather irritating and stressful, especially when trying to plan events. With summer, we know it’s going to be warm. We know winter will be cold. Autumn usually starts off nice and then transitions smoothly to a colder temperatures. With spring it’s really a shot in the dark, and this year it’s been depressing in a way. We had one weekend where we saw high 60 degree temperatures, about 2 weeks ago, but my dreams were then crushed when we saw more snow in the following week.

Another thing that I hate about spring is the sports. Alden does not offer any sports that I enjoy during the spring, and that’s very upsetting. Baseball is just too boring for me. I don’t really fit in very well on the track team since I do not run very fast or jump very high, and I am most certainly not a thrower.  I would love to try play Lacrosse, but Alden doesn’t offer the sport, which makes me even more angry, and therefore I hate spring even more. I suppose there is some up sight to the season. Since it is an offseason I am able to have a lot more free time, and that’s a positive. It also means that we are approaching summer and football season, and who doesn’t want that?
