Do you like it when it snows? Do you like it post-snow?

Hei, just a very random question here. Since i experienced snow last last Friday, I am just thinking is it actually a good thing when it snows? Or is it the opposite?

One might think that snow is really really awesome if one has never experience it before. But, oh well, snow can be good, as in you can have fun in the snow and play around with snow balls and snowman. What about when the snowing stops and everything seems to be so awesomely white around you? The grass field, garden, buildings, trees, castles are all covered by snow but don't forget, the road surfaces too. Try to imagine, a nice snow coated pedesterian way and you can simply feel the 'softness' of the layers of snow below your feet. Well, but this doesn't last for long. Your footprint on the path will not melt away, but disappear as more people leave their footprints in the snow. You can't trek back your journey and if you can, it will be dangerous. Some of you might have a big question mark asking "WHY" in your mind, I am just about to tell you the reason. Tracking back is not dangerous the icy road surface make it dangerous. Walking on icy road surface would mean wearing a normal shoes on an ice skating rink. Balancing will be difficult and of course you will lost your centre of gravity really really easily. I slipped once, but let it be a lesson for me and as the saying goes "Once beaten twice shy", I am now quite shy when it snows =D.

Anyway, during this festive season, it might or might not snow a lot. Just a word of advice here to all: Be careful when walking on pathways and icy road. I bet you won't like it when you will have to meet your Santa Claus in the hospital or clinic instead of your lovely and comfortable home.
