Bogged Down by Snow

muy buenas everyone!

In case people weren't aware, it has been snowing in Philly for the last month.. it seems like this winter is meant to be a loooooooooooong and boring shower of snow. I use to love snow... because growing up in Seattle we didn't have much of it.. and everytime there was snow it was a reason to miss school. In the last three years I have been away from Seattle... it has snowed more in Seattle than ever. Since coming to Philly I have seen my fair share of snow. Last year it was amazing over 40'', but this year with a new snow storm each week... it's getting very old.
    I guess you enjoy snow less as you get older, because snow keeps you from being able to get your work done. I have tons of things going on right now with work, school and life.. and the snow just seems to put a stop to all of that. Especially when there is so much of it... It's hard to walk, everything is icy and it's so cold.
   This last snowstorm has really made me frustrated and angry with mother nature, please leave us alone.... 4 weeks of snowstorms is just too much. I wanted just one giant snow storm and that would be it... but instead we are getting tiny little ones that are overly annoying... and more snow is on the way?!?!?!?!?! Here are some pictures of the current state of Philly and the sight I'm just really tired of.

   My frustration with the weather is also seeping into my motivation to get things done. I have a midterm coming up and have yet to really study. I also have been working on a paper for the last 3 months... and just need to get it done, but I can't. I don't know where my ganas are, but they seem to be buried under the massive amounts of snow on my balcony. I hope spring comes soon... because right now I'm just working towards Spring break and hopefully figuring out my next direction in life.

   I hope all is well around the world, and we are praying for some peace in Egypt as well as other areas that are experiencing harsher realities than my depression caused by snow.

Lots of love,
  Ngoc :)
