first snow; ever so daringly ordinary


"first snow" from balcony 
22nd December was the first snow in my life, in my neighbourhood! Oh well technically not in my life. My first snow was kinda lowkey, it was when i first arrived on March if you look up the news there was a time this year when the snow suddenly appear during the sakura season. That was my first snow, but i was in class that time, i only saw it through the window sad. 

But this one,  i was in my room @ 2AM just finished watching Goblin for the 3rd time in my life and was wildly singing to Ailee's I'll come to you like the first snow ever so out of tune feat my cracking voice but i can assure you the emotion is there (this is really legit) when I hear a knock on my sliding door facing the view of the town.

"Yuki !! (means snow in japanese)" ーmy housemate.

Then i step out, snow was falling mad lightly. Rain hits hard, snow falls lightly. Harder then flower petals but lighter than raindrops. And mate it was sejukkk

nak mammpus

And i took my phone, any camera i have to capture the moment, i know you supposed to enjoy the moment but snow rarely fall in Tokyo and even if it did, it did not pile up. Fun fact, not all place gets piled up with snow and turns white in the after math. There are lowkey snow and highkey snow, lowkey snow is wet because it turns watery by the time it hits, highkey snow is the one that piles up and you can lay down and make a butterfly and beat the shit out of your friends with the snow balls. I used internet language but you know what i mean. I know this fact when my dad dissed my decision to go to Tokyo because he said Tokyo don't snow as much as Hokkaido do, then he kept going on and on about his beloved Hokkaido. (He been to Hokkaido some years ago)

Anyway, lowkey or highkey snow, i came from the equator country with a tropical climate i am thankful of any snow given. I'd take em all. I will end every discrimination against less fun snow and more fun snow. We are all equal and special. So housemate and I, come down from our flat, and by the road side to get full experience of it.

My hands were frozen than Elsa's whole existence. Frozen hands, hurt. But despite the struggles, we managed to take some pics and videos. I brought my camera along, it was covered in snow, I don't know if dslr is water-resistant but I need to capture this moment


Winter holiday starts today. And lasts for about a week and a half? I don't have any plans set for it anyway. I ought to see Van Gogh's exhibition on my birthday but i was so depressed that day I could not managed to lmao. I was very very sad lol. I even took a day of work to kinda go somewhere and celebrate for my birthday but I kept crying since morning and couldn't do anything about it. There are good days and bad days huh.

Should I go tho, I'll update if I did. Currently reading about impressionist artists, arts and etc. There is this thicc book from Taschen I'm reading. Haven't finished it yet tho. But so far I really enjoy it.

Anyway currently busy with assignments and stuff. Will update soon can't wait for semester holiday. See ya!
