Winter was cold

Last November i experienced my very first winter and it was really amusing and enlightening. Back in Nigeria, we have only two seasons, the rainy season and the dry season, this means i only get to see the sun come up and rain come down. 


Coming to the UK, i was anxious to see and compare their different seasons; autumn, winter, spring and summer and was even more exacted by my anticipation of seeing my very first snowfall. And i wasn't disappointed, it was a lovely sight to behold (for a first timer i guess) and the only thing that felt more amusing was the sub-degree temperature that followed. 


YES! Winter was cold, very very cold.


Obviously, it was a lot more colder than i was use to. And while the winter cold took sometime to get use to, i was enjoying my first winter experience, especially building my very own snowman (sounds like a lot fun but believe me, building one is actually hard and time consuming). 


Now months later, reminiscing on how much i didn't like the winter cold, i think i miss the snow.
