Wind was so cold this morning, it felt like somebody was slapping my face.
I live in a country of paradoxes. On one hand, people complaint about subzero temperatures as if it was -30C. On the other hand, there are people totally inappropriately dressed for this cold.. Today, for instance, I saw a man jogging wearing nothing but shorts. Or the other time I saw a man defrosting his car windows wearing shorts as well. Do some people here have personal heating system? I want one...
Also, it would be nice if people stopped assuming that I enjoy this cold weather just because I'm from a country that actually has proper winter. Somebody actually thought this cold weather should remind me home. It doesn't, back home people do not panic over a snowflake :)
On a more positive note...I watched Starter for 10 for the first time since I've been Sherlocked.
I burst into laughter when I saw this:
Future Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes. LOL. and I mean it.
This scene almost killed me :D Cumbe
Well, I mostly liked and/or laughed at the scenes with Ben. Wished he had a bigger role, though.
The plot was predictable, but I really enjoyed the soundtrack, The Cure!
And Rebecca Hall <3

My bf has been playing with my camera without my consent and done something to it and the shutter wouldn't go off, I actually thought he ruined my lens (oh I was mad) but actually he had only "accidentally" changed some settings and resetting factory settings was enough to make it work properly again.

I can't believe we're having such a lovely weather at this time of the year. Most of the summer wasn't as good as these past few days. I went to the beach, found a quiet spot and just enjoyed the sunshine and swimming in warm calm sea. Even evening is quite warm and it feels like summer evening. Absolutely amazing.Best Indian summer ever ;)

During the first week at university, one of the lecturers warned us international students about the panic and chaos that two snowflakes can cause here in UK. It wasn't far from true. A few centimeters of snow and everything stops here, everyone looks at snow as if it was evil. Common, it's just snow. Deal with it! It was funny at first, but now it's just bloody annoying.
The big freeze started in November and today was the first time I saw some pavements being covered with grit. So far haven't seen any other effort to make this situation better in my town. Last friday, my bf's journey from work lasted 6 hours instead of 1. Again, it was more because of the fear of snow and ice than the actual snow and ice. I was at work when it started snowing for the first time t hsi year, a colleauge was afraid to be snowed in. She actually feared she will have to spend a night at work because of no more than 5 cm of snow. and she lives 30+40 minutes walk away. Jeez.
Apparently, it costed 4bn pounds to British economy so far. and the argument for not buying enough equipment to deal with snow is that it might cost too much, especially because it doesn't snow that often. maybe, it's time to change this view.
