Here’s a photo with bits of snow flurries carried by the wind, flying across the camera.
Found this photo in my camera just now. Must have taken it about two weeks ago, when weather was a real bitch. (read Not Applicable & Not Applicable Part II for my accounts of it).
There’s a conspiracy, whereby no matter which direction you walk in, the wind will ALWAYS be blowing full force in your face. It’s almost like someone up there is having fun with a wind-blower thingy and aiming it at your face all the time. And laugh everytime some bits of snow accidentally enters your mouth or hits your eye.
There are these huge snow mounds all around the campus. It snows almost everyday so they have to shovel the snow. And guess what happens to the snow that gets shovelled to make way for roads? Yup, piled up sooo high, in little mountains, all over the campus.
A friend commented that the snow mound by the carpark is so huge it’s a waste of at least 2 carpark spaces. And the size continues to grow as it snows. And if it collapses, I pity the car parked next to the mound(mount) of snow.
Another day, I saw four students, armed with cute mini plastic shovel, make an igloo-like thing out of one of the mounds. Well, it looks kinda like a mini and snow version of a small cave (think Afghan caves that Osama is supposedly hiding in), all white and nice. More interestingly, they tried to fit themselves in the mini igloo, and took photos.
Unfortunately, I have forgotten to bring my camera along on both occasions. And thanks to the recent warmer weather (warmer means anything above 0 Fahrenheit, but below 0 Celsius), more snow have melted. And for once, the scenery around campus actually includes the colour green! Some grass was peeking through the melted snow!
But trust me, the snow will be back.
Be forewarned of more postings to bitch about the weather.
