White Winter Morning

The main problem I have with blog posting is that my best ideas for posting, and my narration of them…. happen on the streets while I’m walking to and from class. By the time I get to my computer (or the class computer), the ideas have left me and I get lazy and never get to actually writing them down.

I wanna try and change that tendency.

Maybe then I’ll get a few more visitors here… A girl can dream right?

It’s been raining for about two days now, and stopped last night. It’s also been freezing cold (fact that was accentuated by my lack of gas for my heater yesterday). This meant that my walk to class today was perlious as all the streets and sidewalks were covered in thin sheets of ice. I’m glad to say my shoes did pretty good at keeping me from slipping, I only slipped twice and didn’t fall at all! I did see two cars skid, the second hitting the car in front of it.

It was, however, a very beautiful walk, the trees, leaves and grass white with frost, something that isn’t too common even in winter. I was also amazed when I got to the corner of my street, looking up at the mountains that surround the city. They were all coated in snow, to the very bottom!! The sun had yet to blind me too, so I got a very good view of the beauty that surrounds the city, a sight I know will later be covered in the haze of the city’s smog. But it was beautiful.

I only wish I had a digital camera to share the sights I see on my way to and from university with whoever might happen to read this blog (up till now, I’d say spambots are my number one readers). But alas I haven’t been able to gather the money needed to purchase one for myself. I even managed to somehow use up my birthday money -_-;;

Anyways, I think this pretty long post makes up somewhat for the lack of updates, I’ll try and make more posts in a regular fashion from now on. Let’s see how that goes.
