Over a month ago I had the pleasure of visiting UK again in the last 4 months. This time it was Scoooootland!
Saturday, 14th of November
I had to wake up at 4AM. Jesus... I'm not sure if anyone is up at this hour. Apart from kids on PCP who are coming back from the clubs. As I mentioned few times I'm a lucky bastard who is loved by her friends enough to ask (and receive) a lift to the airport at such time of day.

Snow for sale
Don't get me wrong. Winter is my second favourite season. It would be first but living in this country has few disadvantages connected to this time of year.
So yesterday is started to snow. And I mean real snow not this "wet white piece of s**t which melts within 30 seconds." This time the temperature was below 0°C (32°F) for the last few days. To be more accurate it was somewhere between -5°C (23°F) and -10°C (14°F). Therefore the snow was meant to stay.
The whole event started yesterday around 3PM. It was quite innocent in the beginning, some small snowflakes, practically one could not notice them. But an hour later or so the snowfall intensified and the wind started to blow (read: a regular snowstorm). Which is really cool, because it looks magical: dark sky, city lights. Yet there one condition: big snowflakes. Instead of which we had small icy flakes so it wasn't that pleasant.

Procrastination, oh how I adore thee
I should be reading the articles for the tomorrow's presentation right now. Instead I'm behaving like Bernard in this video. Though I do not plan calling my mother. Yet...
I even started writing during classes about my trip to Scotland which was like a month ago. As soon as I get the missing pictures I promise to post that. Unfortunately I have few projects to finish, mid-term and other things at work. But as the Christmas-shopping season is ending I may have some extra time too catch up with all the fun stuff I planed to finish weeks ago.
Alrighty... I'm going to be strong and do that bloody presentation. Maybe even learn for that test. Keep your fingers crossed.
