I seriously can't stand this heat! I basically only go where I have to in the summer (I ride the city bus so anywhere I go involves being outdoors). I hate sweating, the burning sensation of the sun , the nausea and dizziness it causes...all of it! Aaand I've only been able to go swimming twice this year. The good news is that it starts getting chillier here in late October so I only have to endure 2 1/2 more months of this.

I love wearing hoodies, jackets, coats, gloves, etc. I always get a new coat every year and picking one out is so much fun (color, fur on the hood, no fur, quilted, long, short...so many decisions) . I guess the difference is that when it's cold you can layer up as much as you want and not freeze. But in summer you can only take off so much and any water you drink you just sweat right out. Then by the end of the day everyone needs a shower. Gross.

I am by far a Fall person over all the seasons. My favourite weather is the kind I need a light sweater in while walking through falling leaves. I prefer the outdoors then because it is cooler - especially camping.
Thanks for this!

I prefer summer to winter and warmer weather to cooler.

I couldn't agree more; especially since I now have a job that requires me to do a lot of manual labor, such as moving furniture around a college campus or lifting heavy items for extended periods of time plus a lot of walking all while waiting outside for the buses and sometimes walking over a mile home because I have to take the night bus due to working all day.

So yeah, I am ready for cooler weather.

It hasn't been that bad of a summer. Temps haven't been crazy hot. Still, I'm looking forward to fall and sweater weather.

I love fall but I hate winter. We often get a lot of ice or snow and I commute to work. My car is rather small. I am tired of freaking out every morning all winter.

I'm looking forward to autumn/winter... I hate it being too hot in the summer particularly at night when it's not dark enough either. My flat is on the top floor so gets really hot.

I'm kind of getting ready for fall because I like it when the weather starts to cool down and I like it when the leaves start to change colors.
Thanks for this!

It's interesting, the people that say they can't wait for the cooler weather, are the same people who say they can't wait for the warmer weather, there's never a happy medium.

I actually don't say that-as a matter of fact I get really bummed out in late April when it starts getting warmer here. Like I said if I want to be warm in winter I just layer up a bunch of clothes.

But I know what you mean. It's just that a lot of people can't stand the same thing for too long.
