Is It Spring Yet?

I haven't had much time to do much blogging lately. Once classes started back, it has been nothing but study...study...study. I know it may sound like I'm complaining, but I'm really not. I enjoy my classes this semester. Sometimes, since I am a little (or a lot) older than most of the people going to college, I end up in classes with some students that are less than serious about what they are doing there. Thankfully, this semester, that is not the case. I am in classes where pretty much everybody takes the subject matters seriously and genuinely are there to learn.

On another note, I think I remember saying sometime this fall that I couldn't wait until winter. I wanted it to hurry up and get cold. I am completely over that. Somehow I forgot that I hate being cold. I can hardly wait until spring. It is so gloomy when all the grass is brown, the trees are bare and the sky is gray more days than not. Also, more on the side of vanity, I am pasty white. I just hate that. I look like I joined the Goth movement. Now, I know that getting too much sun is not healthy, but I also know that getting too little sun is probably not healthy either, in more ways than one. Of course, we need some sun exposure for Vitamin D to help regulate the cycles of our bodies, but I personally need it to keep me from becoming such a crabby old bitty that my friends and family consider smothering me with a pillow. Does anyone else get like that?

Like I said, I can hardly wait for spring. It's already three days into February and you know how time flies. It'll be here before we know, or at least that's what I'm going to tell myself to help alleviate some of this funk I've got going. So, for those of you who are feeling the same way I am, hang in there. It'll be back to the warm, sunny days we love in no time. We just have to stay warm for a couple more months, and I know one girl who'll never claim to be looking forward to winter again. What was I thinking?
