I swear to God, I am going to call the fashion police down on this entire campus. We've had a bit of sun the last couple days, and it has clearly addled the brains of my fellow students, who seem to have forgotten that it is, in fact, still January. Today I saw a girl wearing a white skirt made of some flimsy material that barely covered her naughty bits, leaving her legs entirely bare all. the way. down...

...to her black Ugg boots. Now, either she wished to look like a prostitute (in which case, she succeeded!), or her thought process was something like this: "Oh, I'm wearing big fleecy boots so therefore my outfit is seasonally appropriate no matter what else I put on."

asefasdlfkjasd;lf no.

NO.

NO.

Of course, she was walking with her friend, a heavyset girl who was wearing one of those horizontal-striped shirts (how that got to be a fashion trend among the same group of girls who are constantly obsessing over how fat they are, I'll never know), with jeans tucked awkwardly into her teal--TEAL!!--Uggs, so it seems she's in good company. A company of people who make me want to PUT MY EYES OUT.

To everyone else, I offer a simple plea: I know you're anxious to break out your spring clothes again--hell, I've got some fabulous wedge sandals that are yearning to see the light of day--and I know that retailers think it's spring already; but for the rest of us here on PLANET EARTH, unless the hemispheres have switched since I last checked, it is still WINTER. So for the love of all that is holy, please, PLEASE put the sandals, shorts, short skirts, capris, sundresses, and cute little tank tops away for another couple of months. Seeing a bunch of affluent college kids voluntarily shivering along to class makes me want to hit things.
