Snow

One might ask "Why is he blogging about snow at 3:30 in the morning?" well the answer is: procrastination. i have a presentation to prepare for and i really do not feel like preparing for it... its the last presentation of the year, and i just want to be done. fin. anyways, onto the topic: snow. i happen to love snow, so i was very excited today when, on my half hour walk across campus to my german class, it went from a few flakes here and there to a full on snow shower. unfortunately it had stopped by the end of class and hadn't really accumulated. then during lunch it started to snow hard again! this continued through lunch, my next class, and my walk home. so i was pretty cheery as i walked into my room... unfortunately, while i took a nap, it stopped snowing. :-( . there was also next to no accumulation. oh well, maybe tomorrow... reasons why snow is better than rain: 1. Snow is quiet. there is no cooler feeling than watching snow fall. because it makes no noise even though it seems like it should be. 2. After a snow, it is actually warmer outside than it was before the snow. some wierd phenomena (chem people should know what i'm talking about) causes this. also because snow reflects the uv rays back up seeing as it is very white. 3. Snow is fun for playing in. you can make snow angels, snow(wo)men, snow forts, have snowball fights... when was the last time you ever heard of people having a rain fight? plus when it snows it means its cold outside and i really like the cold... it makes people's cheeks red which is especially cute on girls. so snow is so much better than rain.

loved it. snow makes it warmer outside because freezing takes energy from the atmosphere reducing the temperature. that was easy. but i have played in the rain here too...as in 2 am ran outside in my PJs with a bunch of people and kicked water at eachother while it just came pouring down...quite fun actually, especially since it was warm. i do like that snow has more reasons to like it though. i'm excited for it to snow here too! or at home. if it does while we're on vacation wanna help me build my snowman (yes, man, you can't feasibly make a snow dress...i go with traditional in these feats)...it'd be nice to be able to lift his middle up instead of having to build a ramp like last year. haha. enjoy your snow...and i hope your presentation went well too!
