My fellow Lawrentians are all disappointed. When you live in Wisconsin the most awaited season is not even Summer -- it is Spring, oh yes; when, after a long period of snow and freezing cold nose, hands, and feet, we are supposed to start experiencing sunny days, warmness, and the first opportunities to stay outside. Well, the Spring season started a few weeks ago, though what we have today are the cloudiest days I've experienced here so far.
It is very windy, too. Sometimes I just feel like I will be blown away down to the Fox river. This epic thought, actually, really kept my imagination working for hours one of these days when I felt like the cool breeze was pushing me away.
To be honest it is not as bad as you're probably imagining. Yesterday, when I was on duty sitting behind the front desk, I had fun watching students walking in and out of the building. During rainy seasons people tend to get really creative, and everything counts to protect your head (especially your hair) from getting wet. I saw a Chinese girl leaving the lobby with a newspaper on her head, because she had left her umbrella with a friend. Another girl was courageous enough to walk all the way back again to the 4th floor, where she lives, to get a coat to cover her hair -- she complained, complained, and complained some more... but she went upstairs anyways.
Happy Spring, Wisconsin!
