Too cold and snowy :s

Agree...

In Finland it is stupid, that when it's winter and cold, they beg: '' Please be sunny! Oh summer, come soon! ''

But, then, when it is summer, they say: '' Ohhh, too hot. It should be winter now! ''

No idea in that...
(edited)

For me, it should never be winter. And I think it's cold in Belgium, what would I do when I'd go to Finland ... ;-)

for me it should always be winter, no summer. summer is too hot. i love cold!

Agree
