And it snowed for a 2nd day in a row!

It really did snow today! The snow-covered picture was a pleasant sight to greet us this morning.
Man, will it snow again tomorrow? It has stopped snowing tonight as of now though.

You know, the Chinese language is interesting. Below are some examples (The Singapore mandarin is in blue, China mandarin is in red, );

a) 计算机 = calculator = computer
b) 撒尿牛丸 = meat balls = takopachi

There are certain clashes of culture here. For language culture, the word "shit" is actually considered a offensive word, a profanity. Back home, its pretty much a norm, a way of life for us young people. We usually smile it off after releasing numerous insertions in our conversations. Guess we really must watch what we say in another man's land. There are still lots to learn within the remaining 20 weeks. We can conquer this!

The sight of snow piling up is really interesting. Though you can't wish for a heavy snowfall, I am contented with what I have experienced so far. Only 3 days of snow have been forecast-ed, 2 have passed and tomorrow's the last (if it occurs). Being kiasu, all of us took our cameras out and starting shooting at everything within sight.

Finally squeezed out of the sardine-packed bus. The sardines started walking on the snow.

I love this scenery.

Background: Zong Ming and Junwei

The lorry spoilt the picture.
Isn't it wonderful? Who would have thought this was Beijing.

The locals do have a habit of scribbling stuff on the snow. You will usually see some romantic declaration right? One guy wrote "男儿当志强" (or something along that line) and Junwei gave a wonderful response to the statement beneath it. Lol. *Contents have been removed*

Tomorrow's another day to ponder. 2 days to the weekend!
