Winter is not winter-ing anymore like winter should. Or, by the time this gets published, winter is winter-ing like never before and I'm probably looking like a fool to you. Whatever it is, summer isn't that far away.

In terms of the weather itself, summer doesn't excite me too much. Apart from the fruits and festivities that this particular time of the year brings, it has nothing much going on. There's also the fact that the scorching hot weather will welcome hours of loadshedding with it. Are you all ready for that? I'm certainly not.

Imagine coming back home from your classes or work looking forward to a relaxing evening followed by a good night's sleep and suddenly, the power goes out. Ruins the whole mood, doesn't it?

Of course, everything has a flipside to it and the seasons are no different. The best we can do when that time comes is look forward to all the good things summer has to offer while trying to tolerate the rest.
