=海滩之贝=

Last year, around this day, I posted something about snow. Thinking back now, it's really like another lifetime's story. Here in Shanghai, you still have to take off your jackets at noon, and put on thick blankets to keep you warm in bed. Strange.. There's no heaters in Shanghai, unlike Harbin. Mum told me yesterday on the phone that heaters are starting to work now, temperature is below zero (C'), sweaters must be applied, thick socks and shoes.. I'm starting to miss that sort of life.
Snow.. Is some faraway memory I must put out of my mind now. I can still remember, if I allow myself a minute's weakness, the way she looked when she was covered with bits of snowflakes in the ice world of our homeland. Her eyelashes are frozen, her cheeks flushed, her ears red from the cold air, her tiny feet carrying her elegantly around the playground.. Oh my.. Thinking of it did something to me. I should stop it, right now..
Really, I miss the world of snow, and really, the semi-cold and semi-warm weather in Shanghai doesn't appeal to me. I just hope I can join her in the field of crystal snow, and find my feeling of home..
Good luck to us both.
