And so it finally snowed...

Yes. After more than 2 months of the dry weather, it finally snowed again. Even though I'm not really that hyped up about snowing as I was before, I'm still glad it snowed today because sis hadn't had a chance to experience snowing at all since she came here. Experiencing snow at Stony Brook is a little different from experiencing it at Brooklyn. Suburban life rocks ok. (well, not the bus-taking part though). The whole campus looks so beautiful after the coating of snow. It's still snowing outside, but according to weather.com it's going to change to sleet, then rain. After that, it will be raining for 2 whole days. Goodness, I really don't know how am I going to survive the next 2 rainy days. I really despise going out of the house on rainy days!!! Plus, the snow will be gone when it rains and I haven't had a chance to take pictures of it yet!!! Grrr...Brrrrr.... I think I'm getting more and more accustomed to life here at Stony Brook. At least I'm ...

First Concert...

and it was held at most absurd of time...2 o'clock in the morning at Mohegan Sun, which is a gambling hub at Connecticut. Anyway, it was Eason Chan's concert, Moving On. His performance was very good, but it's just a pity that the turnout wasn't that good, most probably because of the time. He's holding another session at 1pm later, so hopefully it'll have much more audience. Aah...am so tired now. I was so looking forward to joining Lysha and her gang for ice-skating at Central Park, but it's just too tiring for me already. Slept for only like 3 hours maximum for the night during the ride back to Brooklyn. I can't sleep now, if not I'll definitely have insomnia tonight and be late for school tomorrow morning.

Beautiful Sunset...

Setting suns are not necessarily the most beautiful to watch from the beach or from the top of a mountain or from an airplane. Yesterday, the rays of a very beautiful setting sun fell upon me. It shone through the thick, but bare, tree trunks of the forests along the roadside, in a rich golden yellow orange colour. The forests came alive bathing under the remaining sunlight. It was really breathtaking. Just a simple sunset coloured the whole stretch of stripped, ugly forest in the most vivid of colours. Though the sun itself slipped in and out between the tree trunks and a few mountaintops, and it is impossible to see the exact moment it made its final dip into the horizon, it was truly beautiful. Not only the forests, my precious bit of seaview at Port Jefferson Ferry Dock was at its most mesmerizing moment when the bus went past it. Goodness..I am really at a loss of words for that bit of picture in my mind. The small town ferry dock became a castle in my eyes during the few minutes ...
