ARGGH!!! IT'S FREEZING COLD!!!

Winter in Boston
Things I wouldn't have known unless I lived here.

1. Weather patterns
During winter, it's normally warmer when it snows. It figures. It's currently freezing cold right now, and it hasn't really snowed yet in Boston! (-2 to -19 degrees in celcius).

2. rain in winter
I'm flabbergasted! It can actually rain in the middle of the freezing frigid cold winter!!???!!!! It rained last weekend, and then it snowed a little and then it rained once again! Made the ground all slippery and muddy. imagine trampling on the leftover ice in your old freezer.

3. skin
my oily/combination skin can turn to dry skin once exposed to cold wind. But currently, with the proper general daily routine, my skin is perfectly a normal skin, yay!

4. running in winter
I don't recommend this to anyone. at least from a tropical climate. I ended up coughing in class today because i ran to school.

5. rivers in winter
the river banks can turn into ice (on top) but water will still flow on where the current is the strongest

6. birds in winter
there are still some birds still swimming about in the icy cold river even in winter. Before this, I thought all of them would either be hibernating or migrate to a different country by now.

7.ear warmer
you don't have to wear those funny looking furry ear warmers to keep your ears warm in winter. dad, let me know if you need me to buy you one of these (ear warmers by 180s) . it's so cool!!! and warm!!!!
