Flip flop back to the closet

newsflash..it's november. no longer do we see green leaves and sun-shiny days. no longer can we lay outside our dorms/apartments to get that sun-kissed, glowing tan. no longer will we wear flip flops. here's a clue: although flip, flop, fall is alliteration, one of those words do not mesh very well with the general idea. fall. it's autumn, people. christmas displays are already in windows, and yes, it has already snowed here at psu. surprisingly, these things aren't hint enough for some people that it's time to bust out the turtle necks and wool socks. today, for instance, the high was 39 degrees but it "felt like 41". typical fall-flip-flopper thinks: "41 degrees, niceeee, that one tank top will match my rhinestone flops". honestly, what is wrong with you?? my hand went numb just holding my phone as i walked to class today, let alone my feet that froze even while cozily wrapped up in thick socks.

maybe you can use this piece of advice when you are wondering why im looking at you like you just kicked a puppy: nov-ember...rem-ember that 39 degrees is not warm, its 7 degrees above freezing. once the sun stops shining in psu it stops for 9 months. get a clue. do not try to wear tank tops, flip flops, and those swishy, baggy capris. you will NOT get a tan. why? daylights savings has passed..oh, and its NOVEMBER. guys, just bundle up and save yourself the shivers for your own sake and the sake of others that get cold when they look at you trying not to clatter your teeth.
