First Snow

Today marks the onslaught of snow here in Jilin. Its been snowing steadily for about 12 hours now and has covered the campus in white. This has made walking treacherous because the combination of precipitation on top of the "red tiles of death" equals very slippery, concluding in a big wipe out.

In Chinese comprehension class today, most of the students were wistfully looking out the windows at the falling snowflakes, totally not paying attention to our teacher. She, being the great person that she is, totally understood, as most of our class is originally from different countries in Africa and have never seen snow before. She let us out a little early, so that we could frolic in the snow.
