It’s been horrendously cold here for the past few weeks. We’ll have a warm break now and then, which is amazing, but only seeks to trick us into believing that it will remain that way until Spring. It leads to moments of weakness-walking out of the dorm with wet hair and no hat, wearing nice shoes out to a party, and skipping out on the leggings under the jeans. And then, the freeze comes. The common room gets excessively warm due to the fluctuation in weather. People start to get cabin fever. Any possible activities that would have looked promising earlier in the week are now null and void.
I can’t seem to find the energy to leave my dorm room even though I want nothing more then to get out of here! It’s a strange and frustrating conundrum and I am left with nothing but brooding.
“There is still vitality under the winter snow, even though to the casual eye it seems to be dead.” – Agnes Sligh Turnball (author)
