Observations: Snow is sneaky and tricky... it wants you to fall and when you do, the illusion it has created that its soft and white and fluffy is shattered by its compacted, icy reality!!!
Mistakes: falling off my bike in the snow ... straight onto my butt! (didn't see that one coming did ya?!) not catching the bus in the monring (but it wasn't snowing then!!), not reading the weather forecast which said "snow falls on Thursday" until I got home... after falling :(
Mini victories: not breaking anything (me, the bike or the laptop in my backpack!!), not too many people seeing, not swearing too much, getting back on the 'horse' and making it home in one piece ... eventually!
Dutch I've learned: lot's apparently! had our final test for Dutch class tonight, an aural. actually went really well. I paired up with another girl from australia and we just tried to fit as many funny words and lame jokes in dutch as we could into our 10 minute dialoge. success! we zijn uitstekend!
