It is really cold in our place now. No snow whatsoever but men, I can't stand with the cold. I really love to see snow once in a while but for this winter, we never experience snow but the cold is so unbearable for me. I am not used to the cold like this because I was born and raise in a tropical country where we seldom wear coats in a year. We only have rain and chilly breeze on December in my country and for the rest of the months it is pretty much hot and humid. Even if I am living in another country now, I still can not adjust to the coldness I never have experience in my childhood.
Lots of people in my country, are wishing to come to a place where there is snow for they only see snow in the movie. They love to experience wearing thick jackets with fur and boots too. They thought that wearing gloves on winter days are really cute. Huh!! without realizing how uncomfortable we are who are in that situation. For me, I don't like to wear gloves but because of the cold, I have to do it or else I will be frozen in the cold. I can't wait for spring. I now keep on counting the days where it will be warm again.

Snow in early spring
Snow is not a good thing for me if it is everyday. Well, I am excited when snow comes but when the ground is full of snow and it takes, weeks and more to clear the ground? it is annoying.
Am just glad that here in NC, we seldom have thick snow. But just last Sunday we had 6-7 inches snow and until now, it's already Thursday but the snow is still on the ground.. Thick ice are found beside the road. In our back porch we still have thick snow..ouch!! I feel like scrubbing them out hahah but it is also cold to do that.. My hands feel numb.. It is nice to look at in the first day but when it lasted for many days, it is not a good feeling.. I think it's better to have a rain and a flood because it will subside in a few hours. Lol.. anyway, that is life in America. I have to accept it because I am already here.. cold.. cold.. cold.. for 6 months already... I miss the hot summer days in the Philippines. whew!!

Winter is not Fun for me
While most people really like winter time because they want to play in the snow, skiing, making snow balls, skating in the snow but for me it is the most uncomfortable weather of the year. Well, I don't know anything about skating or skiing so, it's no fun for me when winter comes. Oh yes, I love to see the snow, I like to watch the snow falls but I don't like the cold. I have to use 3 layers of coat when I will be out from the house. I am living in the state where snow is not that heavy and the temperature is not so low but still I am not used to that type of weather. We seldom have temperature below 10 degrees. We are always in 20 below or above. Unlike the other states? they usually have below zero temperature and they have to shovel the snow in their yard. Too much expense plus the oil for heater and electricity bills are increasing every winter. I never experience thick snow here in my place. We only have snow 2-3 times during winter and is not that bad. We only have 3 inches and that's it. But it is really cold for me. Good that we used wood stove to heat our house so we were able to cut down electricity bills and oil expense for the heater. But still I am not comfortable with the cold. When I saw winter and the snow time in movies I thought it is fun but when I experience it myself, I keep on hoping it will end soon. It is not fun!! cold... cold... cold...
