Bunch of weaklings...

Yes, people here are absolute weaklings what comes to different weather conditions. Eeverything thats slightly out of ordinary created chaos and transport standstill. Heavy rain and wind rings alarmbells and I imagine that few inches of snow would be declared as a catastrophy. They should see how things work in my homeland. Over there when theres blizzard outside, we just shrug our shoulders and carry on.
Im always little afraid when Im travelling across the city that maybe something has caused the trains to come to a halt. So it would take me much much more time to make it home. I dont mind travelling if I have time, but the people are so impatient and frustrated that it gets to me too.

I began to really relish the cold days. In Estonia, they are expexting their first snow, and I miss that moment. The moment when you see the first white delicate flakes swirl down on your nose. I truly miss that. So when everybody here complains how cold it is (even though the temperature here hasnt gone below zero) I quietly cheer inside because deep down I hope to see snow. And I love those crisp days when you can feel the pinch of frost on your face and you see the sheet of white on the grass. We dont have it often though, thus I thoroughly enjoy those days when I can smell the winter and touch it, if only with my fingertips.

I thought that Im not going to write about this, but I feel that I have to share something with you my Dear Void. Yesterday was an awesome day. I spent the whole day with my special one, we took the tube to the city and went to the zoo.Walked around there hand in hand, having coffee and sandwiches (not holding hands during that, you try to eat a sandwich and hold hands at the same time) and taking pictures with animals and with eachother. And in the evening we cooked some gorgeous food and had some chai before going to bed. It was truly perfect day and on top of that, it was exactly that kind of a weather I love nowadays, crisp and sunny.
Im all warm and fuzzy inside, something that I havent felt in a long time.
