When you wake up on consecutive mornings and see snow on every available surface outside your window it is a beautiful sight.
When there is snow on distant mountains and it reminds you of rolling vats of vanilla icecream, it looks deliciously soft.
When the sun peeps in every now and then, and bathes the snow in golden pools of light, it is gorgeous to say the least.
When you are cupping a steaming cup of coffee or hot chocolate in your hands and the snow is falling in rapid bursts outside, it is beauty like you have never seen before.
But, when you have to walk through snow fall and reach your classroom within a certain time, it is messy, clingy, damp, and cold.
When you have to walk on snow and ice, and very very cautiously and gingerly at that because if you are not careful you could have a nasty fall, it is frightening.
Wearing several layers of woollens and walking/running/romancing the hero on snow-covered fields and mountains is a great idea when you are in a Yash Chopra movie. In real life, it's war. And one that you better win for your own sake.

i love snow too... par they say that too much of everything is bad.. and i know what are you talking about..
enjoy it while u can honey..
God Bless...
I'm glad you like the Snow. Once you get used to it, you'll like treking through the fluffy stuff.
:)
why bother whether u r in the-yash-chopra-type-movies or not, u r a real-life hero , ain't u one?
i agree... i love looking at it.. but walking in it .. is a living night mare!!!
What I love about your blog is the way you write a simple stuff. Honestly...it is a pleasure to read whatever you write...the wit, the brevity and the beauty of the words just can not be mistaken...
All I want to say is that while you fight your way through the snow remember the steaming mug of hot chocolate...maybe that would make it worth while
I agree with Prashant there.
well....not a nice thot to battle the snow all the way to any place...but since u r going to be there for next 3 winters.....start enjoying it :)

I was humming the song while reading. (Subhadip mentioned).
It must be fun though...but I know what you mean. You'd better enjoy it...no other way.
@ Prashant
Congrats.
Very little to enjoy actually.
@ Kip
Err...let's see.
@ Mayuri
You made my day. :)
@ M
Even looking at it gets boring and bland after a while. White is just not my color.
@ Kanu
Thanks. I appreciate your comment very much. And you are right. Thinking about hot chocolate might be a good idea.
@ BASTM
Very nice.
@ Deeps
Hmm
@ Subhadip
That's a powerful sentence. I like it.
@ Rohit
Are you still humming?
U talking about living in a paiting ..:)
you lucky girl you...
i guess the grass is ALWAYS greener on the other side - so the romanticism of snow stays with me while i try to get all worked up abt wearing a full sleeved shirt for the first time this season (yeah yeah yeah... so what if we had to put the fan on mid afternoon - at least we didnt need the ac!!!) :-D
and yash chopra movie huh??? dude - r u ready to do that chiffon saree thingie while daniel craig prances around you in that choreographed sequence atop the mountains!!
"tumhe dekha to ye..." brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr "pyar hota deewana" brrrrrrrrrrrrrr :-D
hot chocolate sounds delicious! know what!! the best i had in recent times - was in darjeeling - at keventers roof top cafe - where the evening chill makes that steaming mug of cocoa go down just right as you burrow in yr jacket and try to avoid that freezing wrought iron chair from actually touching any part of yr body!!
snuggle up and stay warm!!
@ Chitrangada
No baby. Come and live here for a week. You will forget how to paint.
@ Keka
Again, nearly the same comment for you. There really is no luck involved in being buried in snow.
