It's Snowing, It's Snowing!

It's snowing out today! And I learned that just because it's "beautiful" outside doesn't mean that it's also "nice" outside. Apparently this blizzard is that huge one that was supposed to hit, which is weird, since it doesn't seem abnormal.

Some of my friends were hoping for a snow day, something that I found rather ridiculous. It's not just the fact that it's college, and we can walk places- it's the fact that it's Ithaca.

To have a snow day
In Ithaca would be like
A North Pole snow day


I mean really. We're in Ithaca. What do you expect? Snow such as this isn't strange. It's perfectly usual. I personally will never expect a snow day (unless we have 3 feet of snow or so), and if one happens to hit it will be certainly serendipitous. And besides, a snow day at college means very little. You still have to do all of your reading and such, and class really is not much of a burden to go to (it's the work that kills you). So, unless there's a snow storm that goes indoors, it shouldn't be much of an issue.

  1. Great observation. Now, if you live in DC or Baltimore, it's another matter.....
