lol, I actually came here for the winter, so I don't really have the right to complain. Except sometimes when I do anyway. You get used to it.

I love that scarf. My cousin actually crocheted it for me when I mentioned I was going to school here, and it's wonderful because it wraps around my face a bunch of times but still allows me to breathe. It also saved a drunk girl's feet from frostbite one time when I was standing in a bus stop with her and she had shoes completely inappropriate for the weather on.
