On Sunday night it started to snow really hard and was actually sticking to the ground. That night my self and two of my flat mates went for a walk in the snow at the park across the street. It was so great to look at and I just felt like a kid hoping for a snow day. That night while I slept I would wake up every once and a while and check to see if it was still snowing. It was great when it was and I just kept hoping for a snow day. In the morning the city was blanketed in snow that was ankle deep. There were no buses running and all but one of the tube lines were down. No one really understands why the tube would shut down since it was underground but it did. I did not work that day most of the schools were closed and no one could go anywhere. I went for a walk and took lots of pictures. It was nice to see all the people out playing in it, it made me feel like a kid. It was so great, I wanted to get into the city to take pictures of Big Ben in the snow but it would have taken about 2 hours to walk each way. So I decided against that! I went and got coffee with my flat mate Kate and then went to the store and got things to bake and make beef stew. We went home watched movies and baked. It felt like christmas. By the afternoon the buses were running again and some tube lines were running.
On Tuesday I got up and checked and my tube line was still closed. So if I were to leave I would have to take a bus to get to different tube stops. I tried my agency a couple of times and no one answered so I assumed that there would be no work that day. I spent the day in the flat hanging out and being lazy. I made it to starbucks and read a little. I ended up taking a nap which was the hight of my laziness. I have work for tomorrow and hope that all the lines will be open and I will be able to get to the school.
