Skiing

I picked up a new sport over winter break. Since December, I have gone skiing twice at two of the most popular skiing locations near Pittsburgh. It's a cold, but interesting sport. And though I sometimes have to be pushed down the steeper hills, it's a lot of fun.

Classes Canceled!

Today is my first-ever snow day! Pittsburgh advised CMU to cancel classes, due to the 2 feet of snow we got over the weekend. Hopefully classes will be canceled again tomorrow, then I'll have an extra 2 days to study for my exam!

Snow!

The big snow storm on the East Coast hit Pittsburgh, too. Although many cities got hit with upwards of 30 inches, Pittsburgh has only been hit by ~20 inches. It's still more snow than I've seen fall in my entire life! And it's beautiful.

It was great snow for building snow men. Here's the big one I made:


Here are the results of the snow storm:


The snow storm almost knocked the huge snow man over! It actually knocked over the second one I made, which was much smaller.


Even the streets look like they have more snow on them than normally falls in Pittsburgh in a year. And the snow's still falling!

I also made a video of all the snow: check it out.
