Top Ten Best Things About Winter
Winter break = Christmas! Who doesn't love Christmas? It's great.
I couldn't imagine celebrating Christmas in a hot country where it's in the summer. It just wouldn't be the same without cold weather, winter woollies, and warming up with hot cocoa. Especially if it snows!
Winter break is awesome. You get to stay home and play games all day, mostly Minecraft, SimCity 4, and Skyrim.
You get to stay home, have hot chocolate and cookies, and don't have to worry about any single piece of work. It's just peaceful!
I will never forget how awesome winter break 2019-2020 was. I was 13 years old and in 8th grade at the time, and it was my best winter break ever.
I feel that being a Canadian, I kind of take this for granted. The whole world seems more civil and peaceful when there's snow on the ground. It really brings people together, especially when they have to shovel the driveway.
A good excuse to sit inside with a 24 of Molsons and watch the Leafs and the Habs on Hockey Night in Canada, eh?
I live in California, so unfortunately, the weather here doesn't allow for there to be any snow unless you live in the mountains. But it would be my dream to play in the snow and build a snowman someday, even if I have to wait until I'm an adult to do so.
I live in Australia, and all of us Aussies have celebrated our Christmas and New Year's in summer.
The day you get to open presents after waiting weeks for the moment.
That is really neat. You are in the classroom, working on science, and then the electricity goes out. Then an announcement comes out of the speakers, saying that you get to go home early.
It's good until the school district takes away summer/spring break due to too many of these.
I live in southern California. None of this happens except for winter break!
That's what I need. I go inside, shivering, and my mom gives me hot chocolate to warm me up. It's great!
It doesn't snow here, but I always enjoy hot chocolate during this time.
The time when I don't have to worry about those insects that sting. I don't mind honeybees. They won't sting you if you're nice to them. But wasps, hornets, and those big bad black bees are just plain scary, and winter protects you from them.
I don't have to always worry about getting stung!
Mosquitoes love my blood, so this is great for me.
I throw pretty hard at times, and I knock down the opponent and I win sometimes. It's fun!
You get to stay home and sleep in a little longer or play games for an hour or two. Neat!
The Newcomers
During the winter, there are fewer people outside. I feel more energized and want to go out often to make the most of the awesome cold weather.
I've always loved cold weather and can easily run around without a jacket unless the temperature drops below a certain point.
The frost on trees is always nice. It is cool to take photos of the trees with frost.
I'm a night owl, and I love the night as a result.
You are in the snow. You see your girlfriend, or sister, or brother, or whoever, unlock the door. Then you jump out and give them a pretty good scare.
Especially if you have vampire skin that burns within a few minutes like I do.
