funny thing, that sunshine

For the most part, I like winter. I like how the night looks when it is snowing. I like wearing mittens. I like the feeling of swooshing down the mountain on a pair of skis. Yes, I like wintry things.

Even so, I just cannot get enough of that golden goodness that is the SUN. When it is a sunshiny day (like today), I feel like everyone is in a good mood, the daylight lasts longer, the icicles drip drip drip creating beautiful designs as they lengthen, and I forget about things that probably should be on my mind. Sunshine makes me want to eat Nutella sandwiches, go on hikes, fly kites, take the long way to class, and put off doing homework. During the day I think about pleasure reading and free time and writing the letters I've been composing in my mind for weeks.

It reminds me of that Beatles song: Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting. Little darling, it seems like years since its been clear. Here comes the sun, here comes the sun. It's alright.

Sun. Sun. Sun.
Here it comes.
