Too Much Snow *Huffs*

Let me begin with stating the obvious, it has been snowing for the past week or two immensely. At first I enjoy it, looks pretty like I said in my previous blog but then it just begins to get exceedingly annoying!

I had lectures and seminars to attend to on Wednesday, and I made it however, everything was cancelled! They decided to email us half way through the day with something a long the lines of ‘oh by the way kids lectures and seminars are cancelled for today.’ I did some self study, worked on my dissertation and decided to jet off home early before it got too dark and become marooned and abandoned by the buses due to the heavy fall of the snow. Around where I live, it was okay, I mean two inches of snow is not much, and my council has learnt from previous years and mistakes to actually grit the roads. On the other hand, Kent has been swathed by 5-6inches of snow and no grit in site; the buses were sliding up and down the hilly roads. It is impossible to tell a part from the pavement to the road, thankfully, I did not slip, and I assisted others from taking a drop too. (That was my good deed of day :) )

I also got stuck on the M4 and then on the M25 on Thursday morning, again due to the adverse weather conditions; which is why I was unable to attend work. I thought I should be able to make it in time. However, the weather had different plans. I am not too sure what the weather is like where the University’s Avery Hill campus is based, I hope it has improved significantly.

On a happier note, I went to watch the movie ‘Unstoppable’ an average film; I would rate it around 7 out of 10. If for one reason, I was to give it a higher mark would be due to the actor Chris Pine who plays the role of Will Colson, a young train conductor. A predictable ending but a happy ending. It is nice to see Denzel Washington again on the screens.
