Spring

When it comes to winters, the one this year was a failure.  Historically, we have usually been hit by at least a few snowstorms every year, but this time there was only one big one.  However, I will forgive this year's winter because it had such big shoes to fill from last year's record setting snow.  Although I will forgive this year's winter, I will not forgive last year's seniors for having so many snow days.  This year we were only allotted two snowdays, while last year's seniors had what seemed to be hundreds of snowdays.  With this huge disparity between snowdays, it seems as though last year's seniors got the upper hand with the whole winter situation, but there are other factors to take into consideration.  Since last year brought such a strong winter, it took much longer for all of the snow to go away.  Last year I remember shoveling feet of snow off of the track in late March so that we could use it for practice.  Not only was there so much snow, but it was also brutally cold during that part of March.  This year it has been constantly in the 50s and next week it will reach the 70s.  Not to mention that the track team does not need to clear off the track and the lacrosse team does not need to clear off turf 2.  The seniors from last year think that they are so cool for having so many snowdays, but the joke is on them; we're going to enjoy senior year so much more because our spring will start off on a higher note.
