This week had many ups and downs including Oklahoma weather.
This week was a prime example of experiencing all seasons in one
week—literally. I remember wearing a hoodie, and my workout leggings all day,
and was so ready to go back home and change into shorts and my Birkenstocks
because my car told me it was ninety-one degrees. Crazy right? What’s even
crazier is that Thursday night the temperature dropped down to the fifties—with
what seemed like extreme, cold wind. I remember pulling an all nighter, and going
home around midnight for a break, and changing into long pants, and putting on
a jacket.
My allergies were awful that day, and they lasted through
Friday. I couldn’t tell if I was getting sick again, or experiencing awful
allergies. All I know for sure is that it was AWFUL. What I’ve came to realize
after living in Norman for almost three years now is that the weather is more
unpredictable than the people that live here. What I mean is that you can never
expect anything, and DO NOT put your winter clothes away during the “Summer,”
and DO NOT put your summer clothes away during the “Winter.” You never know when
you’ll need a sweater, or when you’ll need shorts. My boyfriend told me that if
you put Vaseline around your nostrils it would stop allergens from getting into
your nose, and causing you to feel miserable for the rest of the day. I tried
it out, and I think it worked! Weird, but it did the job! We both have terrible
allergies, so this week was a nightmare for us. Especially because I had an
Organic Chemistry test, and he has a Physics test this Monday.
My tips for surviving Oklahoma weather are be okay with
change, keep all your clothes ready, and try Allegra D for allergy medicine.
