Winter vs. Summer, Cold vs. Hot

            Pros

            Winter is better than summer without a doubt. I think that being hot and sweaty is a horrible feeling and is very uncomfortable. When you are cold you can always put on more clothing and or blankets and coverings. When you are hot you can’t keep stripping to keep cool. Once you’re to your minimum you can’t do much more. Heat makes me sweaty and dirty and gross. I don’t know about you but I don’t like that gritty, gross feeling. When you are cold you don’t sweat or get dirty most of the time. Most normal everyday foods that I eat are warm, warm food in the summer can be gross and dreary. I don’t like eating hot or warm food. When its summer I would prefer cold drinks but even if you get ice drinks they melt before I am able to finish. In the winter you can get warm or cold drinks and they are perfect the whole time you drink. I also prefer the winter because my favorite sport is during the winter. You can do almost any sport in the winter. It’s great. In the summer it is harder to do certain sports because you need a gym and no one wants to be in a gym when it is 90 degrees outside, that is uncomfortable. In the winter the chance for getting dehydrated and sick is low but in the summer you have to be more careful about what and how much you drink even eat.

            Cons

            In the winter I can’t walk outside barefoot or go get a tan. No bike riding or doing activities that I love to do. If you prefer the heat rather than the winter you are stuck cooped up inside with little to do. In the winter I am mostly inside bored unless I have someone or something to do. When I go outside in the winter I have to bundle up and I can’t move around as much as I would prefer. When I am wearing all that clothing I get Closter phobic and want to just take it off. I love to swim. I can’t always go to a gym or an inside pool. So that isn’t fun. It would be a lot easier to just go to a friend’s house or right in your back yard. I also hate that in the winter the clothing choice is to a minimum. You can’t wear shorts or skirts or dresses unless you are inside and even when you are you are cold an uncomfortable. You don’t have as many varieties. I like to have a choice in the morning. In the winter I wear jeans and a shirt. In the summer I could wear jean shorts or sporty short, flip flops or sandals, t shirt or tank top. I like to have a wide variety of options.
