With only eight hours between sunup and sundown in winter.
The nostalgia you feel for the land of your childhood, might wain a tad
if you weren't able to get a glimpse of the sun for months at a time.

Probably true. But I would love it for the first bit! (Plus I love the nighttime!

) My dad's told me the same thing. I've kinda adopted this quote on the subject (from an anime called 'Yami no Matsuei' or 'Descendants of Darkness'), background: they are dead and in their world they have cherry blossoms all year round, which the Japanese love, but have only for about 2 weeks a year;
(Can't remember his name... oops.): How spoiled we are, to have cherry blossoms blooming all year round.
Tsuzuki: Do you really think so? It's the fleeting nature of the blossoms which makes them beautiful.
It's pretty much the same here for rain; we get it so little, it makes me love it more.
ANYWAY! Back to the topic...

I am guessing your quite young. But can't you ask for the money yourself to go and buy your own underwear?! I have been buying my own underwear since I was about 11/12.

I'm sure they'd let me go on my own (they know how mature and responsible I am for my age); it's more a matter of the fact I've never really needed to buy more underwear because (unlike my sister) I actually take care of my clothes and know where they are, and I haven't really grown any in a few years

. So it would seem kinda weird that I randomly need more underwear all of a sudden. Or, maybe they'd be relieved that I finally need new ones
