This week has been full of new things for me to experience. The week started off relatively normal with really warm weather in the 60s. Then Wed nite was my first ice storm. According to the local, it's a small one. So on Thurs morn, walking to class was ok, nothing big deal but on my way back from class, I was buttoning my jacket and wasn't really paying attention to where I was walking. I slipped on a patched of ice and fell on my bottom and scraped my plam a little bit. Haven't had a fall like that since my 2nd year in college where I tripped over my foot and sidewalk and gave myself a swoollen knee. It'll be a fun winter in counting how many times I fall and be a major klutz. haha
Then the same nite, I had to go to my friend's place to go over some homework problems. I didn't realize how hard and how long it would take to defrost my car. I have an ice scraper in the trunk of my car. When I got to my car, all my doors were frozen shut and so was my trunk. I was like, "I have to get into my trunk! AHH!" Then I just started pulling on any door just to get into my car. Finally got one of the backseat door open, then I crawled around to the driver seat to start my car and start the thawing. Thankfully I remembered that my backseat bench folds down and I can get into my trunk. Yippee! Then I start scraping. It took about a good 30 min scraping and warming up my car. But I still couldn't get my trunk open. The whole time, I was just praying to God to just let me open one door. Crazy.
On my way home, I decided to get gas. Well guess what? The gas door is also frozen shut and I couldn't get it open. So that nite was just loads of fun. It was raining too my the time I got home. It's basically ice pellets raining down. It hurts.
That same nite was the snow storm. My first one. I went to bed excited. I woke up Friday morn with snow and it was just amazing. Everything was white and beautiful and pure. I was so excited that I took more pics out of my window than I planned on.
That same nite, we have our annual Prom. everyone get to dress up. I went to a 2nd year's apt downstairs and had wine and cheese. The cheese was good but I found out I only like dessert wine, the sweeter the better. We walked to the place for the formal. Normally it would be a short walk but with the 4inches of snow the nite before it was interesting. I had on a mid calf dress and strappy sandal, so the walk was freezing. Frozen toes and legs. No amt of jacket and scarf could make up for it. The price we pay for beauty. ::sigh::
The prom was fun. The food was cold and didn't taste the best. The songs for dancing sucks with occasional good songs. Most people were drunk by 10pm. There was a group going out afterward in dress clothes to bars. Crazy people. Overall it was fun just to see people getting all dressed and not seeing them in scrubs like in everyday.

Overall, this week has been good. God has been gracious to me, letting me to see and experience new things. Tomorrow morning will be interesting trying to get to church. hehe. Laters.
