"Snowverated" is the word of the day this morning in New York City. After all of the preparation and worried texts from my parents, I woke up to freshly plowed streets and clear sidewalks. The 2 feet of snow we were supposed to be covered in was, on my end, only about 5 inches. With school called off and most of the places in my neighborhood closed, this day is just a continuation of the break that was supposed to end yesterday. I got back to the city Saturday and was happily reunited with friends and my favorite city. New York said "Welcome home!" with a lovely blizzard and my winter break is now the never-ending vacation. My school cancelled classes yesterday afternoon when the storm was at its peak; the prediction looked horrible and I was glad we weren't going to take any chances. Last year I was just told to trek safely to class in the snow storm that covered Washington Square Park with nearly a foot of accumulation. This snow day is NOTHING compared to the tundra I had to walk through last year. On the bright side, my school can't send an email retracting their previous decision to cancel all classes, I think if they could they definitely would.
I am excited to stay in my pajamas all day and catch up on some reading - I am halfway through We Were Liars by E. Lockhart for my sorority book club and so far it's a good story, and an easy read! My roommates and I have thrilling plans to drink lots of hot chocolate and watch too much "Dance Moms". A snow day is the perfect excuse to do nothing, despite a lack of snow, I'm happy for a reason to stay home all day and make fun of the blizzard that never came.
