  1. Personally, I think it would be easier to do two extreme opposite seasons, winter and summer because I think that you could compare and contrast more with those than two similar ones like spring and summer but i do like the idea of comparing and contrasting seasons

  4. Leah,
    good start. Be sure you can find data and reserach to back up your popints. I don't want an unexamined-personal-opinion essay.
