So long & farewell

Whelp.  We lost the Big XII Championship.  The Sooners bested us in a pretty good game and they deserved to win because they played better. Congrats to the Sooners!  I wish we could have won to leave with a bang, but alas it's only football.  I'd also like to say that although I hope to never permanently reside in this state, I love UNL and it was the right school for me.  I will always love UNL no matter the wins or losses and no matter what conference we play in.

Now, ya'll know how much I hate Nebraska winters.  How the 50 mph winds rip right through you and chill you to the bone on your way to class no matter how many layers you have on.  How it is impossible to walk through the strip between Oldfather and Andrews on a windy day.  How routes to class change as you try and walk through as many buildings as possible.  How when checking the weather in the morning I pray for low winds and double digits.  How I hate that the mountains of snow that fall and turn into brown mush with the sand on the sidewalks.  How lugees get frozen on the sidewalk for all to see and be sickened by.  Ya'll know I hate winter.  Well, I want some snow.  I really want some pretty fluffy white snow.  Even though I know it will be gross and dreadful to walk in within a day, I still want some snow. I want it to feel like Christmas.
