Annabanana‘s comment on Winter inspired me to chime in on why I also hate winter:
- I grew up in Manila where the coldest we get is a cold summer night here
- It’s too cumbersome dressing for the outdoors when it’s cold
- Snow is only pretty right after it falls to the ground and accumulates then you have to deal with slush when it can’t melt fast enough.
- It’s difficult to shop when you try to fit what you want to buy and you have to take off your coat, your 2 sweaters, your leggings, your pants, and you won’t get anywhere without taking off the boots first.
- My eyes start getting teary-eyed when it gets too windy and cold. (Which is the reason why I don’t wear mascarra in the winter.)
- The winter is very harsh on my skin so I have to use all these extra moisturizers.
- Cold sores are not something I particularly enjoy and sometimes I get susceptible to it when it gets too cold for too long.
- I love sunshine!
- They don’t have winter in Manila.
- I love dressing up in the colors of spring and summer.
