This morning as I stood at my front door, watching the new snow build up on top of the snow left behind days ago, I pondered my winter outfit and whether or not I could bear the cold without a scarf. I was wearing a large, woolen turtleneck underneath my heavy-duty wool empire waist coat, so I figured I was probably prepared enough for a light snow. Within an hour the snowfall turned into a thick blanket of white air, a centimeter or so piled upon my shoulders and furry hat, my turtleneck keeping the snow out thankfully. Word spread throughout the morning that school was going to be shutting down and after 3 hours of listening to a lecture about paradox, the design process and Carl Jung's typology theory(I am an INFP), we were dismissed from school for the remainder of the day. Basically what that meant was that the next hour or so would be spent trekking through ankle deep snow, getting on and off of buses and trains, competing for the least slippery spot on sidewalks and trying to get some supplies for the next couple of days, in case the markets decide to close for awhile. Although this crazy winter weather is terribly exciting, going anywhere is out of the question. However, this does give me a very good excuse to crawl up in my bed with a hot cup of tea and a great book. The snow is supposed to fall steadily for the next few hours and into the night, I assume there will be no school tomorrow either, as cold as it is outside, the snow will not be leaving anytime soon. AAhhhh, I really do feel like I am in Canada.
