first winter chill - by Spencer Chang - spencer's paradoxes

That first winter chill. A cool breeze from the south penetrates your skin sinking deep into your bones. It makes your skin crawl, a shiver snakes up your arm, around your neck, down your spine. But it doesn't quite feel scary. It's exciting, even as you rub your arms and complain how summer always leaves so fast. It’s cold, yes. But it’s also freeing.
