All Coming Back Again

My holiday break is over and tomorrow I will be in my usual morning struggle to get up, get dressed and catch the bus.  I wish the holiday would be longer, not because I have to get up so early but because of the weather.  It has been prognosed that the temperature will drop to -15°C in the coming days.  Great!  Just in time for school start and when everybody’s back to work, too.  This means I have to be extra earlier than normal in case the buses don’t come on time; further, it takes time to walk on snow or icy ground, hahaa.

not my down jacketI am quite accustomed to checking the temperature every morning before getting something to wear.  But hubby reminded me a few days ago to wear extra layer of warm clothings because there was a news of intense cold in the coming days.  I told him that maybe it’s time to take my down jacket off the storage.  I have not used it for four or five years, thanks to the mild winter seasons we’ve had all those years.  I should remember to hang my down jacket in the hall.  As of this writing, it’s still in the storage.  I don’t really like to wear it because I look like a robot but I’m compelled to for the sake of feeling warm in the cold.  Somehow, I am gratified when I see many robot like-humans walking around, lol!  Sometimes it’s not easy to recognize someone you know wearing this kind of jacket with the hood protecting but almost covering the face from cold wind.

Everything’s coming back again, *sigh*.  It seems like nothing has changed after the old year.  It’s the same routine, rituals, chants, rants and geezz, what more.  So far, the only change I feel for this year is the weather, not for the better but for worse, at least for the time being.  And I want to the days to move fast, even faster to make it better.  Sunrise: 08:50am.  Sunset: 15:48pm.  With this short days, don’t you want rapid changes?  I do…
