What a beautiful face I have found in this place that is circling all around the sun.

Okay...I'm sick. I'm not please with this one bit. My throat's sore, I keep sneezing, coughing and my ears hurt. WTF. But in bigger, better news, we has a whole lot of snow. Two feet of it...with one minor snow storm expected today or tomorrow and another nor'easter to hit this weekend to dump at least another two feet on our heads.

To start off, this is what it normally looks like outside my room when it snows:



This is how it looked Monday morning (still snowing, by the way):



Biiiiig difference.

I was up around six thirty (to check the switchboard; there wasn't class), and started taking what pictures I could from the dorm. I went out around one forty five in the morning to try to board the unplowed streets, but there was too much snow to get going properly. Surprisingly, I wasn't the only one out there, which is the norm, so it went a little like this. So, six thirty/sevenish, it's still snowing:









After a while, though, Nicholas and Dustin wanted to go to the snack bar, so we all suited up and headed out. It was later in the day, so they school had been mostly dug out, but there was still a metric fuckload of snow everywhere:

The tree outside my window:



A good example out just how much snow has accumulated. Snow removal, because of the new oncoming storms, has been scheduled for Friday. Finally.



The street I was trying to board down:



The library:









So yeah. SNOW. Lots of it.

Besides the epic amounts of snow, it looks like Liz and Dustin are going to be near-moving out to go live with their respective boyfriends. Damn...gonna miss havin' them around.

umf, college, things, umaine, snow
