What I Hate About Spring

Most people (or things) in the book, “The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe,” were very happy to see spring again; but me, now that’s a different story.

There are some things I absolutely hate, and one of those things is spring. For most people spring would be like: I love the smell of flowers, the sound of birds chirping, the feel of a cool breeze against my face. To me spring is: I hate the smell of pollen, the sound of cars running over sloppy mush that was once snow, the feel of extremely itchy eyes.

From my point of view spring is pure torture. You know, spring wouldn’t be that bad if the medicine actually worked, but too bad most of the time it doesn’t.

Basically, the first thing I notice about spring is the stuffy nose. It stinks (not literally) because when I have a stuffy nose I can’t smell whatsoever. I hate spring and from past experiences spring hates me.
