Hello lovely Reader!
I am Nicole, one of Megan's friends at college. She writes on my blog every Wednesday and in turn, she asked me to write on her blog every once in a while. So here goes nothing.
The weather right now is -3 degrees, but with windchill it feels like -20. Heck, there is even an extreme cold warning in effect until noon (which is about right now). I had a doctor appointment at about nine this morning and my car barely started. After my appointment, I headed back to campus and had to run around, dropping off applications, scholarship money, and letters. I am now chilling in my room, about to eat a hot bowl of soup. I still can't really feel my feet and I'm sure my face still has some redness to it.
I love summer - the warmth, the time off, the being able to be barefoot, the whole nine-yards. Typically I hate winter. It's fun for about two days then it just becomes annoying. But something about this winter is different; maybe it's because the snow didn't come until after January 1st but whatever it is, I am enjoying it more.
When I was running around campus this morning, it was quiet. No one was out and even if someone was walking, it was too cold to talk. Sometimes life gets too busy and too loud. Even though I adore summer, I also enjoy the quietness of winter.
As I come to the bottom of my bowl of soup, I am quite sad. Although winter is bitter and cold, it also gives you a perfect reason to eat a hot bowl of soup, drink a cup of cocoa, curl up with a heated blanket, and cuddle up next to someone and just enjoy the quietness of the season. And I think that's pretty epic.
Enjoy the quietness of the weather and the warmth that will come after the cold. If you need a moment to relax and be quiet, check this website out.
Be epic and keep on being lovely.
-Nicole
