Illusion of Words

SNOW

Yes, this great topic deserves all caps. I was not expecting any snow during my stay here, but God brought along a pleasant surprise in the form of a winter storm. It wasn’t a big storm, but we had at least a good 4 inches of snow accumulated on the ground. Which was quite a lot for the southern areas.

And of course the thing is it’s the first time experiencing real snow. The first impression was the dazzling whiteness of the scenery. Cars, houses with a layer of snow on the roof. It was just beautiful. And because words, at this point, is quite useless without pictures, I give you: pictures.

1. Make an obese, ugly mini snowman.

2. Snowball fight. This picture was posed, actually, but yeah, a real, albeit lame fight did occur.

3. Make a snow angel. Not very clear, but you get the idea.

Tree covered with snow. Beautiful sight.

That’s me. And I’m not even in long pants. Really. Because my uncle was like “just take a picture”. Weird. And I look kinda weird.

Me and the Obese Snowman.

Oh. and the pictures with me are significantly smaller just because.

Today, besides snow, was also Obama’s inauguration, obviously. I watched this historic moment along with the rest of the world. But I can’t fathom the obsession with the new president.
