Looking forward to spring (?)

In my opinion, winter is the worst part of the year. I do not like cold weather, in contrast to my Mexican Tandem Plus partner, and I prefer to live near the sea cost where it is always about 25 degree. But, apart these nonrealistic dreams, I like Russian summe more than our winter. That is why I can't wait for winter to finish. However, I do not like spring (I mean its first part) here just the same. In Russia, in April and in March there is always a lot of slush, it rains all the time, it's cool and dank. Besides the weather, I do not have any special preferences as our only long holidays that I am waiting for are in summer (yep, I have such a cynical view of studying that I'm looking forward to have a long rest ^). Furthermore, I do not think that spring is a really romantic time, as in Moscow all people are absorbed in their problems and fussy without any correlation with time of year.
So, all in all, I'm not waiting for spring to come - I'm looking forward to the end of the winter, which, despite the calendar, is still continuing and, in my opinion, will finish only in the beginning of April.

  1. I agree -- I'm looking forward to the end of winter more than spring! It seems winter will never end at this point. In Minnesota the winters are equally cold, but the temperature fluctates more day to day and week to week, so by this time of year you get the occasional nice day. It seems like the weather has been the same here for two months now!

    1. And it probably will be the same for the next 3 weeks - the winter began one month later than it had to, so it will finish later just the same. At least, such was the situation in 2012.
