My canadian experience.
So how's it like over there U ask. I can only reply in a word. COLD! Thats probably also that Im too cold to reply anything more than that! Its so friggin cold here, u'd freeze instantly the moment you step outside the house without winter clothing. Now even with me having the think jackets on, it still doesnt help. My face froze in just minutes, my hands, even with gloves on, also freezes. In a matter of half an hour or so with windchill, my feet turned cold, my mouth and hands felt numb. OPen your mouth and breathe for a few minutes, ur teeth starts to ache. Thats how cold it is here. During the day time, the temperature may be around -4'c. Night time, the temperature may drop till -18'c. So for those of you who easily get cold and plan to come over, make sure u get tons of warm clothing!
Hows the snow like some may ask. Well, at first, its very exicting to be feeling something that u never felt before. Its like the ice you find on the ABC or ais kacang, but much lighter than that. Almost like sand. How does it taste like? Hmm..well,tasteless, but I ceratinly didnt take a mouthfull of it!
Now even with this bitter coldness here, it still cant stop me from whatever I enjoy doing. Taking Pics! Thts the very first thing I did on the very first morning I woke up, suiting up and jumping right out to the backyard shooting away. Of course I couldnt stay outside very long. Only for 2 hours before I had to head back into the house t get some warmth. But sometimes, even being in the house, I'd still feel cold.
Still havet travelled much. For the past few days , Ive only travelled around a two block radius. Thats not very much really. Intend to find my own way to the city once the weather gets warmer. Im more eager to go to some park where everything is more natural. Weather forcast for tmr says the temperature may drop lower, and there'sa possibility of snow. Lets sit and wait.
Heres some of what I took over here for the past 2 days.
