I've had the winter blues for quite a while now. As you know, Christmas wasn't very Christmas-y, New Year's wasn't festive either. My birthday's coming up, but I'm not all that excited about it.

But today as I was about to leave work, someone said, "It's snowing!" I looked out the window and sure enough, it was snowing.

As I was walking down the stairs, I saw some students going up, semi-covered in powdery chunks of snow. I got a little more excited.

Then I got outside and saw the snow coming down in big flakes, nice and slow. A huge uncontrollable smile took over my face. It's the first proper snow this season here.

I know, though, that this feeling's gonna get ruined. The snow will clog the streets since they don't hardly take care of the streets here and most drivers I've seen don't know how to drive in snowy weather (i.e. no lights and they drive way to slow). It'll also melt a little and mix with the crap on the streets to make a brown slush that'll get all over my shoes.

But for now, I'm happy.
