Who doesn't love a snow day?
No matter what age you are, a snow day merely means no responsibilities for the day which is a feeling of pure happiness.
Now as a working adult, I still enjoy snow days but the happiness just isn't the same like it was when I was younger. I remember at 12 years old I would be so excited for a snow day that the minute I woke up I would run to the window ecstatic to see that white blanket covering my backyard. The excitement would take over my body that I wouldn't even be able to fall back asleep.
Now the only thing I'm doing the minute I wake up is checking my emails for no work and if I'm lucky enough to have work canceled, well now falling back asleep is what I'm most excited about.
The pancakes in shapes of snow men, and the whip cream to top them off is now a bowl of low fat cereal with a mix of wine taste still in your mouth from last night.
Shoveling the driveway use to be a fun bonding experience with your siblings, now the thought of shoveling my driveway makes me so angry that I actually have to leave my bed.
Nevertheless, I love snow days, but at 22 they are just not the same as they were are 12.
