title, what title?

Nein, dies ist nicht das Bild meines Autos. Dies ist das Bild des ersten Schneefalls in Berlin, etwas das ich jedes Jahr in großer Aufregung erwarte. Dieses Jahr kam er früh. Ich bin hoffnungsvoll auf einen weißen Dezember!

Reminds me of my love and that lovely Dylan song: On a night like this I can't get any sleep, The air is so cold outside And the snow's so deep. Build a fire, throw on logs And listen to it hiss And let it burn, burn, burn, burn On a night like this. Let the four winds blow Around this old cabin door, If I'm not too far off I think we did this once before. There's more frost on the window glass With each new tender kiss, But it sure feels right On a night like this.

"April is the cruelest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain. Winter kept us warm, covering Earth in forgetful snow, feeding A little life with dried tubers. ... Waste Land - T.S. Elliot " If April is the cruelest month as Elliot says, then October is the warmest month. I spend the summer days dreaming of winter, and October is the month when I feel the winter coming. The only piece of news that I anticipate the whole year is the news of the first snow fall of the season . This year, I did not have to wait October for it. I can already feel the itch at the bottom of my feet, where my skies belong...

Two very funny strips from Calvin and Hobbes, to match the winter spirit: This ones about the feelings of every student about snow: http://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/2009/02/10/ This ones about the existence of God: http://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/2009/02/02/

After experiencing snow in 3 different cities, my conclusion is that snow suits capitals.

My dreams came true. I woke up, took a look outside the window, and the roof were white... I was as happy as I used to be when we were back in our Apartment in Alabas Sokak. I ran out quickly and took some photos. It's not a lot of snow, but enough to make me smile for a day. Better, more is on the way... more pics on: http://picasaweb.google.com/ahmetcihat
