Not This Time Of The Year

I should say that my most favorite season is springtime, where bare trees begin to look green and where flowers bloom gradually in time. We had a fine, sunny day last weekend that everybody could tell it’s the mark of a real springtime. Everybody got the sunshine smile. But not for long. Monday morning was greeted by a snow storm that caused traffic jam and road accidents. I’ve been complaining about a dry winter and not having snow at all, well, I like snow but not in springtime.  It’s enough with freezing temperature, I need the D from the sun.  And wait a minute, is it snowing because the World Championship in Figure Skating is going on here?  What a coincidence.

Snow, snow go away. Come again on a winter day!

    Farah, you’re back! Can’t wait to read your stories. It’s the wrong time of the year for this snow. Hehee, I will be glad if they perform in the public for free. I’ve just watched it on TV, though.

    Aww, you’re tempting me to come to Malaysia, I would love, too. Hubby has been to some places there and he liked it. I’m just waiting when he’s going to bring me there. :-)

    Yeah I do miss the silent sober mood of Black Saturday in Phil’s Marlene :(
    Weather also here in Oz is some kinda freaking. In one day, there were times that the weather changes six times. Super cold, super hot and then suddently raining then back to normal. It’s Autumn season here now according to them but I don’t know that was really autumn is. Sunny, freezing rainy or whatever? Just new here that’s why. Winter is coming and I don’t know how it feels gosh. 16 degrees really makes me chill chill chill :D
    have a blessed Easter Sunday in advance.

    My, oh you have not been to Malaysia? come on, you should! When are you planning to be back in Philippines for holiday? Perhaps, you could stop by here too, since it’s not too far away. BTW My, what is it that your husband do in Sweden? It must be fun and great working there right?

    it doesn’t matter where you are, if u love it there, then it’s great. I would love to be able to settle somewhere in Europe too. that’s like one of my dreams! LOL my sis used to be in UK- for 8 years, but she’s back now. I love it there.

    oh btw, if the world figure skating is for public and free, then, they wouldn’t afford the expensive medals! LOL
