RENSKE SAYS NO TO GLOVES AND THIS IS WHY

Subjects! Just something serious. I am trying to get through the winter without gloves and that is no easy task. Therefore, I kindly ask you to provide me with mental support.

So you may now give me your support.

*** GIVE SUPPORT **** Thank you.

Of course. You will understandably wonder why I am going through life without gloves. Well, I can be brief for a change: it’s because I find gloves stupid. However, why I find gloves stupid requires a bit more explanation. Hold on tight.

1.) Gloves confirm winter, and in my opinion, you should 2.) not go confirming the stupid things in life, because that only makes 3.) stupid things arrogant. And of course, we don’t want winter to get a big head.

Now let’s all laugh together, because he is good again.

Back to the with-without-gloves thing. In November, everything was still fine, and in December too. There was really nothing wrong: Renske could just hop on her bike without suffering from the cold. Soon it would be spring and we would have beautifully cut off winter without gloves, moehahaha. But unfortunately: in the past weeks, I have been cautiously suspecting that I might not make it after all. It is becoming increasingly difficult for me to struggle without gloves. Stronger, the day before yesterday I was on my bike to the Bijenkorf for the sale, and my limbs (hands, hands!) were almost freezing off. Seriously: it was almost crying. Or have you never locked your bike with half-frozen hands?

And so I might just have to – five to twelve – give in and buy gloves. And that while I really don’t want to. What do you think? Should I keep pushing through and will I really make it, or should I buy a pair of luxury leather gloves and give in to winter?

Feel free to share your opinion – and tag every glove hater you know.
