I’ve got back to Bucharest after my ever-too-short winter holiday to see a white city, all covered with snow, waves of wintry white flowing and growing and swallowing all the former ugliness away. And it keeps on snowing. I know about the heavy traffic conditions, the extremely cold temperatures and all the other problems, but this time I don’t care. This time, I want to go back in time and enjoy the laughters, the jingles, the snowballs, the snowmen, the snowhouses, all the gifts, the mittens, the scarves, the wool socks, the effort of carrying the sled three floors up, the few minutes spent in front of the door with my parents brushing all the snow away from me and laughing and saying that it can’t be me, it must be a snowman…

I’ve got two more weeks of uni till the exam session starts. Unlike most of the other people, I have to do my best during these weeks and get high grades, so that instead of that exam session I can have my proper winter holiday… for a month. Work, work, work.

My cats have grown fat and furry in their winter “coats”, still lazy, still easily scared, still sleeping in the spaces that form between my head and my shoulders and still play like mad with the tiny laser point thingie.

And… I’ve started playing World of Warcraft a few months ago, which is – for whomever wonders and aside from uni – one of the main reasons this blog has been shamelessly neglected lately.

Happy New Year!
