Suspension of Classes due to Bad Weather: a Cause of Happiness?

          So it's the month of July, which means that the rainy season is at its peak. Due to this, classes are usually suspended, much to the glee of students. However, I have a different opinion in mind.          


          I seriously wonder why people love it when there's suspension of classes because of bad weather. So, they'd rather have a bad weather (which is dangerous) and not go to class than attend class when there's a safer weather? A little bothersome.

         Personally, I'd rather attend class and be at peace, knowing that calamities aren't destroying the lives of people affected by the storm.


          Most people are glad because it is a time to rest and to "catch-up" on studies (which I think they won't do over the suspension anyway, or maybe I'm just being judgmental here) but most of them don't really realize what the suspension means that there will be people who will get affected by the storm. It's reasonable to be glad that it is a time to rest, but it bothers me when I read words like "yahoo!" or "yehey!" being posted. Don't you think it's a little selfish?
