Why would you want to melt snow? Snow is so lovely!
Not when a car drives on it and turns it to ice!

hahahahahaha the weather here has, predictably, turned awful. we have plus degrees and things are melting but also freezing? i mean around my house everything is covered in a thin layer of ice, and the only places to walk safely are at the edges between icy roads and knee-deep snow, or in fresh tractor tracks.
you'll know where to find me.

Today's dinner is burritos and I love them, but I always overfill them and then eating becomes a battle against time and gravity... or idk, maybe there's just no tidy way of eating burritos anyway. :P

Uh... something similar happed here too - with less snow, of course. Yesterday we had a little snow, but today it started to rain and down in the city all the snow has turned to slush/water. In the hilly parts though - where I live - there is still some half melted - half frozen white stuff on the streets, so on my way from the bus stop I had to choose between walking down on an icy slope or icy stairs  :-\

The weather here has been pretty bleh for the last few days. Warm (~+5°C) and raining. The good thing is that it has melted away most of the thick layer of ice that was on the streets. But now and for the rest of the week it's supposed to be closer to or below zero and some new snow is supposed to fall throughout the week. It's just started to snow and it's lovely but I hope it's not going to snow to much. I like it best when there is just a thin layer of snow covering everything.

One week of the term to go, then I have a week's glorious holidays <3

What I'm most looking forward to, though, is being able to continue my art projects again. One of the courses I had to do this term was a game project, and being the only artistic person on the team, I was the one who had to not only draw, but design everything. Takes a lot of energy, and sapped all creativeness, leaving nothing for my own projects...

But first, project presentations and exams. *is taking a brief moment to lurk here as a break*

After the major snowfall we had over the weekend, the rest of this week is supposed to be about 5.  It's gonna get sloppy.

Sounds like a mess. Be careful.

Mainly where I walk.  It's gonna be ankle-deep puddles.  (Walking around Manhattan last night was a challenge!)

Yeah, the area around Penn was a mess.  (8th and 34th was particularly wretched)
