All at once, one day is SPRING

Spring is busting out all over! Shortly following the advent of one of my favorite holidays, spring becomes more and more apparent. Here are the reasons why Spring is the best season of them all. You will agree with me. I happen to be very persuasive.

Sunshine.

Oh heavenly sunshine that not only provides light, but warmth as well! Unlike the sometimes-insufferable heat of summer, the sunshine in spring is so unbelievably pleasant! You occasionally may need a light jacket in the morning, but the afternoons are simply perfect. Can I get an amen?

Daylight Savings.

Okay, yeah, it sucks to lose an hour of sleep, but it is totally worth it for the daylight to hang around a little longer. It is so nice to walk home late from campus and not fear being attacked by crazy people hiding in bushes, like this fellow. Can you imagine finding him in your path while walking alone in the dark hours of the night? Scary, right? But in plain daylight, he just looks ridiculous.

Flowers.

I am honestly sorry for those who have seasonal allergies. With all the buds and leaves coming out, everything looks and smells wonderful. It is a season of beautiful flora and new, little fauna because of the abounding merryweather (she was always my favorite).

My birthday.

Really, I am not a huge fan of birthdays, but I have to include this one.

and then there was THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THEM ALL--

THE PARK.

Yes, I know that I am 23 and yes, I know that the playground is for kids. Does knowing mean that I care? Nope. I love, love, love, LOVE the park. Come on! How can you not love going to all the open grassy space, to go down the slides, to see how high you can get on the swings?! I contest that there is little better than an afternoon or evening at the park. I could go there every day. I even have a kite.
