It was FRIDAY, 20th day of November in 2015.
It was exactly 9 in the morning!
Extremely amazing moment for me.
It was another first time.
THE FIRST TIME TO EXPERIENCE SNOWFALL!!!
 |
| Experiencing the SNOWFALL for the very first time together with classmates from different countries from different continents... |
While we were having an intense discussion inside the classroom about the lecture CHINESE MILITARY STRATEGY, magical MOMENT was happening outside the window.
Yes, SNOW falling continuously and beautifully!!!
...like hundreds of cotton balls floating in the air,
slowly falling to the trees, leaves, rooftops, ground,
and to our senses...
tenderly touching our heart...
fully awakening the child within us.
 |
| What a magical phenomenon! What an amazing moment! |
One of our classmates raised his hand and said that while we were enjoying the lively and interesting classroom discussion, however, there was something special happening outside.
We shifted our attention outside and we were greeted by the remarkable moment!
Since majority of us did not experience SNOWFALL before, the professor gave us break and everyone was rushing outside just like children extremely excited to play in the rain.
 |
| A freezing remarkable JOURNEY! |
It was unbelievable event for me, as soon as I went out I looked up in the sky thanking GOD for this wonderful experience, certainly a great blessing from the Almighty to witness such rare phenomenon!
Everyone was jumping and shouting for joy while taking pictures.
It was a milestone for us during this one year of stay in CHINA especially in BEIJING.
It became part of another amazing learning experience outside the classroom. Something that I will never experience in the Philippines!
The experience was more special because it was shared with people from different countries and different continents!

SNOW is defined as precipitation in the form of flakes of crystalline water ice that falls from the clouds.
But for me, SNOW means
Shower of
Nature's
Outpouring
Wonders...
The world record for the highest seasonal total snowfall was measured in the United States at Mount Baker Ski areas, outside the town of Bellingham, Washington during the 1998-1999 season. Mount Baker received 2,896 centimeters (95.01 ft) of snow.
SNOW can be designated by shape of the flakes, the rate of accumulation, and the way the snow collects on the ground.
In Beijing, WINTER season is from NOVEMBER to MARCH of the following year. The average temperature is from negative 5 to positive 5 degrees centigrade, however, the temperature can drop to negative 22. WHEW!!! So it simply means SNOWFALL can happen anytime within that span of 5 months!!!

I am looking forward for more SNOWFALLS in the coming days!!!
Xiexie for this AMAZING JOURNEY!!!
