It rained on Weds night, complete with strong cold winds and all. I didn't have lessons so I didn't have to walk back in the rain, unlike my poor roommate, but even in the room, sitting next to the windows, using my laptop, I could feel the cold winds and see the trees sway. Oh yes, and our windows are always closed, but because our side of the building faces the direction of the wind, we are the coldest area during winter. Brrrrrrrrr...
So yesterday, we started to wear multiple layers. Someone even wore 5 layers lols. Ha I think my tolerance level for coldness is getting higher. One long sleeved, one jacket and the big outer jacket. Apparently it's 1-12 degrees Celsius yesterday. Ah there is sun and the temperature's not too bad, but the wind factor makes us shiver haha.
Anyway I ate 冰糖葫芦(again) today =) Actually it's just the second time since a stall in school started selling it. That was as dessert after lunch, then when we were walking back after dinner I saw 冰糖“水果” =D It's a bit more exp and I already had it once in the day, but my roommate tempted me and in the end we shared a stick XD It has got a cherry tomato, a grape, a mini orange, a piece of banana, mini orange again, banana again, last mini orange and finally a 山楂 (aka the 葫芦) <3<3<3 Very nice! The 冰糖 is hard so when I bit into it it was sweet and hard, then when I bit into the cherry tomato it's slightly sourish and soft! Contrasting tastes and textures =D
Yar anyway must control if not I'll end up eating that everyday. Erps. Getting much colder tonight. There's a saying that whenever it rains in Beijing, the temperature will drop. Once it rains 10 times, Beijing would have entered winter officially. Wah the temp change is really obvious and pretty drastic. Fingers are getting frozen ><
My first official winter experience is beginning! Need to go get 羽绒服 soon. Ah hot sunny Singapore.
