So when I got up yesterday, it was like any other day. I rolled out of my bed, put on my Hawkeye slipper sneakers and opened the window. Usually opening the curtain is no big deal, just the same old parking lot and basketball court. But not today! Today there was SNOW! The first snow to be exact!

I’m personally not one to enjoy cold weather, but something about having snow on the ground changes things. I feel like when that fluffy white stuff comes there’s finally a REASON for it to be so cold! Also the fact that it’s the FIRST snow changes things. It’s the first time you physically see a change in season, and not just feel it.

The only thing about this new-found weather I’m not enjoying is the trek across the river. If you follow my blog, you would know that I live in Slater Hall, which is on the West side of the river, and the majority of my classes take place on the East side. I’m not one to take the bus either. I enjoy my walks and I’m going to try my best to keep walking this winter to avoid the over-crowded Cambuses.

I can’t wait to come back after winter break to see a beautiful snow covered University of Iowa.
