First Ever Time Playing Real Snow…

Trees in the snow

our own-made Snow man!

Last night it was snowing non-stop whole night…Therefore, today, 28 November 2006, Volgograd is officially ‘conquered’ by SNOW! This certainly is the first ever time in my life to witness totally white snowy scenery everywhere…

Today I played snow two times! Just now after class finished in the evening, I joined MARA 1st year friends to play snow together… and at night, there was electrical shortage for around 1 hour in our hostel…so we all decided to go down to play snow outside…at night! Throwing each other with snow…and we made a small snow man too… However, it’s so cold! Hands feel very painful…the feeling is like holding freeze ice for a long time…

Yup… It’s really fun…I’m very touched to have this opportunity to see and play real snow…really, how I wish I can share this memorable moment with you guys all…

Anyway…though today was just first day, but I already realize how much we have to suffer in winter… Walking on the snow is not easy…and It makes your shoes and long pants very dirty…and of course, the super freezing cold weather just make you feel uncomfortable…nose, ears and hands are the normal part that you will feel very painful when you are at outside…

But isn’t that I should suffer in appreciation and gratitude...

(Can’t spend too much time to resize my pictures during school days…I will do it during weekend…More snow pictures will be coming…)
