My Way to the College in the Spring

Do you remember my way to the College in the Winter? What a difference it was in the Spring...

The Spring

After watching the snow all over the ground for months, I was astonished to observe the flowers blossoming in the Spring. How could they flourish beautifully just like that? How can their seeds survive those freezing temperatures? It seemed to me that "those seeds were sleeping in the Winter and they have just woken up in the Spring to flourish", and to greet people with their color and wonderful smell.

Mac Lab

Most of the time you could find a space at the Mac Lab to work on your projects. In April, I had to go back there to work on my internship project; I thought I would have the Mac Lab only for myself, but for my surprise: there were no space to sit. It looked to me that everybody was working at the same time on (end-of-year) projects. In April, the weather was getting better so students wanted to enjoy the outdoors. Because of that the Mac Lab was empty in the afternoons, but there I was on my own at the Mac Lab! It was a weird feeling being there by myself. I was sad to see that the year was over, no more classes, no more projects, no more meetings with my classmates at the College. However, it was a wonderful feeling to see that the weather was getting warmer, and the flowers were beautiful as usual.

Believe me, there were days I thought I was going to freeze. It was not an enjoyable walk in the winter having to be in the classroom at 8:30 a.m.

Winter is very beautiful, indeed! Even more beautiful when you are inside your living room by a fireplace (with your boyfriend), having a glass of ice wine, and looking the snow falling through the window. How beautiful it is! But have you tried long walks when it is minus 12 or more? It is not fun for me.

Just a few days before spring came to stay...I started to hear birds singing. The snow is gone now, and my way to the College has become an enjoyable walk. Actually, a bird watching adventure. I have stopped few times, in the middle of my way going to the College, to observe the different colourful birds on the trees' branches, singing a variety of tones. How beautiful it is the spring from inside or outside my living room now.
