First Day of Semester 2 in Manchester

It snowed in the whole UK since last night! Everywhere was white. When I woke up this morning, I was so surprised to see the 'white piece of land' in front of my block, and it was still snowing. Oooo... first day of sem 2 and it was white. Snow is so beautiful, but it can be pretty annoying when it melts.

My seniors had been telling me that it rarely snows in Manchester, but it has already snowed for many times since December, and the snow stayed!! Actually it started yesterday when I went to Chinatown to see the celebration and Lion Dance. Haha. It snowed when I went to school. Scenery was just beautiful..... so beautiful.... Many were outside playing snowball fight. We played on the way walking to The University Place for another lecture. One word, beautiful!!
