I definitely prefer summer because there is not much sun in the winter, and I think there is no sun; it is really depressing. When there is sun, you can do lots of things. You can go to the beach, you can go outside, you can do sports, you can do anything without worrying about being cold. So I like summer definitely; I choose summer.
