As of March 20, winter is officially over and spring is here. Spring is by far my favourite season of the year because itâs the most confident. Sure, summerâs hot, but the pressure for summer lovinâ gives me humid, sweaty anxiety. Autumn is pretty and full of pumpkin spiceâbut it also abruptly forces you back to school and back to the grind. Winterâs full of sparkly holidays; but the festive season also means wet feet, cold hands, and gift-buying-induced credit card debt.
Spring is different. Itâs your first chance to bust out dresses without boots and tights, to expose some skin, and get free vitamin D. Even if youâre stuck in an end-of-semester slump, now you can go outside and see those first flowers starting to bloomâa new beginning is budding.
