It snows in Michigan, apparently.

So today was the first day it snowed here in Michigan. At least, since I’ve been here. Everytime I tell someone I’m from California, people always ask me, “So, have you seen snow?” And when I counter that California has snow, people like to scoff and say,” Oh there’s no good snow there.” At this point, I point out that we have Lake Tahoe, and have hosted the Winter Olympics. Not good enough snow for you? Good enough for the world, thankyouverymuch.

A few thoughts:

“Med Student P” is probably the only person I know so far who is actually excited for snow. He keeps on doing his snow dance and wishing for snow. I think it’s ironic that he was also one of the only people I know who didn’t get to see the snow today.

Med Student K, last year apparently, thought that it was flying ashes and went around telling everyone that it was so. I guess Arizona doesn’t have snow.

My own thoughts: Walking out of anatomy after having one of the juiciest most intensive labs yet, my first thought was:

1) Hey, it’s snowing

2) It’s cold

3) Stupid biostat smell
