During the winter months, it was no fun for me to try to venture outside- whether it was on foot or in my wheelchair. Not fun at all! Now, I can go short distances on foot, and just enjoy the nice weather. I hope it sticks around, and we don't end up getting anymore blasts of wintry weather for a really long stretch of time. Or, I am probably going to roll along in my wheelchair for longer trecks on campus- and just enjoy this nice weather.
I haven't been able to enjoy the nice weather for quite a while. Winter was blah! Getting around. . . . trying to get around was no fun at all. As it is, I have a great deal of difficulty maneuvoring around campus as a result of the challenges my disability has caused me to face. What I like is that I can now enjoy this beautiful weather, and I don't have to be concerned about getting my wheelchair caught in a snowdrift or slipping on icy pavement.
Spring is my kind of season. It isn't too hot, and it's not really cold. Of course, we're getting a taste of summer right now. Summer, however, doesn't really start until June, I think, and that's usually when it really begins to get hot and unbearable. Summer is one of the hated seasons for me. It's awefully tough to actually enjoy the weather because it gets pretty hot. Spring, on the other hand doesn't come along with brutally hot and humid weather- only rain and thunderstorms.

My Interesting Life As a Student
- Nico Echols
- Springfield, Illinois, United States
- I'm living in Springfield, but I'm originally from Chicago. I am now living in a group home for people who are visually impaired. Living at the Mary Bryant Home has been a huge step in my life. I am now able to get involved in activities every day. I am making lots of new friends, and I'm enjoying living with my new family. Since I'm the youngest person, I feel like I have lots of parents and grandparents, and even my best friend, who is like a big sister, to spend my time with. I don't think I'd change this for anything else in the world.
