Summer is better than Winter

Thank you for analyzing my points. To comment on what you first stated. Mosquitoes are still there. They carry diseases that are painful and deathly. There are many people that can't even afford the spray. Source of the diseases: http://www.cdc.gov... Butterflies do not fall into the category of mosquitoes but I didn't mean them to appear as such. I was just giving examples of bugs that die because of the cold weather. Flowers are in the summer, yes, but many people believe the sparkling beauty of snow is better than bugs. What is the definition of better? Having better sleep in the winter is a reason it is better than summer. Another thing is that oversleeping is unhealthy for you. Having too much sleep, especially sleep in the summer, only makes you more tired. http://www.cbsnews.com... At that source you can find a study CBS news did that proves that oversleep, and not better sleep, is hazardous to your health. So, therefore, it does help my case. Another thing, if you think sleeping is irrelevant to the topic, then why are you going on about it? Just curious. What I meant with the hot chocolate is that it is more effective in warming you up than Popsicle are at cooling you down. I am sorry for confusing you, I tried to make it as clear as possible. There are billions of words in our language but most of those words don't have to do anything with winter or summer. You clearly don't understand what I was meaning by that statement, "that says it all." My hot chocolate point was not invalid because it is a wonderful thing that is usually associated with winter. Fire, marshmallows, and hot chocolate are all more commonly found during the winter season. Most people don't drink hot chocolate during the summer, or don't eat a Popsicle during the winter. The sports. Winter sports cannot be done in the summer . . . In Alaska it can get up to 80 and 90 degrees which makes it impossible to do winter sports. http://ezinearticles.com... And this source I just stated proves that it doesn't snow there as much as you may think. Alaska, in fact, is a green place with many lakes, rivers, and streams. The summer in Alaska doesn't have much snow at all. It is definitely not enough to be able to do the popular winter activities. I would like you to remember that there are many schools that are year round, so that doesn't help your point on time too much. The days are longer in the summer, but why is that a good thing? I, for one, and many others that I know have no problem with the time in the winter and can get plenty done. On the stress, many people can get just as stressed during summer as in winter. School is not the only thing out there. People have jobs too. Also, there are many positive ways you can deal with stress but unhealthy sleeping habits are not as easily dealt with. It's not only recreational things people do in the summer. There are many people that go to Hawaii or to Disney Land in the winter break that is also done in summer. Also, many people go on Klondikes during the winter break. There is a recreational example for you that can only be done int he winter. Also my point on sports. You can play football and baseball indoors all you want. http://www.aifaprofootball.com... That link will take you to a website that is the American indoor Football Association. Indoor football is real. Examples of a variety: You can take walks, go running, play all the summer sports and winter sports, go on Klondikes, go hiking, climb mountains, climb frozen waterfalls. There are so many different things you can do because you can do both summer AND winter sports. What you said about the sun. The problem with summer is most people DO get too much of it. What you said above that caused me to state the sun problem is that you specifically stated you can play in the sunshine. 1) I must point out that all of my points are perfectly relevant to the topic. Each of them states how winter is better than summer, which it is. Yes you can use a tanning bed, but most people don't tan in the winter. 2) And I have replied above. 3)That is a personal example, but you are only one person. Can you give more examples of runners who like summer better? Questions: 1) Isn't it true that the holidays celebrated in the winter are more worldwide and more known? Examples: Christmas and New Years 2) Isn't it true that, going off my first question, summer holidays are not more known or more worldwide? Examples: 4th of July and Pioneer Day 3) Isn't it true that there are more songs written for things in the winter then there are for the summer? Examples: Christmas songs http://www.songsforteaching.com... and New Years songs Thank you for taking the time to reply, and again I apologize for my lengthy reply.
