Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

So today I woke up early in the morning, and the first thing that I did was open the curtain things to check if it was snowing. To no-one's surprise it wasn't. The second thing I did was turn the computer on to check the forecast (yes, I'm obsessed and yes, I still check it even if I know it's gonna be wrong). A semi-sunny day. Great. I go make my breakfast and then come back into my room to get my stuff to take a shower. Then I hear one of my flatmates: "Ah, it's snowing!". I immediately open the shields and see snow falling from the sky! My first reaction is to go outside and try to grab some. But the snow wasn't thick enough, it was melting once it hit the ground... oh, and I was in my pijays, so I would've frozen. What I did instead was open the common room's window (mine only open about two inches) and put my arm out. Yes, I did do that. Snow fell on my hand, and that was the first ever time I touched snow. So cool! And meanwhile my flatmates were looking at me as if I was out of my mind (which I am, but it came as a surprise to them).

So I take a quick shower, get dressed, and go outside (I was also a bit behind in time to get to my lecture, so I had to run). It was awesome to feel the snow falling around you. The coolest thing ever. It only lasted until I got the the lecture theatre, though. When I was arriving it was also heating up, so the falling snow turned into falling rain. That wasn't as cool... actually, it wasn't cool at all.

And there you go, now it's official. Whenever the forecast says it's going to snow, there'll be sun. When they say there's gonna be sun it'll snow. At least now I know how to read it.

Also, I got my DVDs today. I haven't taken a look at them, but I will this evening. I'm gonna experience the power of AC/DC live. I'll leave Zeppelin for a more intimate occasion, as that'll be almost like a religious experience. Can't just watch it with anyone.

So to conclude, very good day so far. Got to see/touch snow for the first time and I got my DVDs. Now I hope nothing ruins it later on.

man i hope the rest of your day was as awesome as the beginning! The last time I saw snow was a loooong time ago, like 10 years ago or something. And the DVDs...woooooot! Man i turned to VH1 one time and they were playing Led Zeppelin's Black Dog on it, and then they played Pink Floyd, then Metallica, and stuff like that. It made me really happy to see that not EVERYTHING in the world of music has turned to unbearable shit. :) They didn't play any AC/DC though, and you have the privilege of owning an entire DVD now. ...bastard.
