Shoving Snow In Winter

We stopped dead in our track in front of the hotel entrance, in the middle of driveway. For the first time i felt like i was standing in the middle of forest in Siberian, except the trees have been replaced with various makes of cars. How is this possible? Is this for real? How could this animal be existed in place like this? Yet the panting noise of some unknown creature that sounded like wolf panting was getting louder and louder, something inside me was telling me it's moving closer, fast. Yet i couldn't tell how fast it was. It's impossible. Yet it was unmistakable, nothing else could have sounded like this, nothing in my mind registered to this noise. The next thing i thought about was escape plans; no more than 15 steps to our 10 o'clock was the hotel main entrance. If i would to run to the door, the beast would have outran me if it came from in front, before i reached the entrance. I thought about turning back and ran to the side door, which was around 50 steps away to my back, with the thick snow on the ground and the beast's mobility, it would probably outrun and turn me into it's meal as well. All those thinking happened in my mind for no more than a few seconds, if i had started running my live off to the main entrance a few seconds ago, i would be saved, but yet i frozed dead in my path, unable to do anything, any path i took would be extremely risky and i chose the riskiest of all. I was waiting for the beast to reveal itself.

My oversized shoes

“Sometimes I look back the work I have done, I will wonder why I have to do this? What was it in my mind that I had to use this method? What was I thinking at that particular time?” I said. “Then I would try to use some other approach if it works in the same case, but turn out my original idea was the best suit, so I guess what I thought that particular time must have covered this thought that I’m having now, it caters. I feel amazing sometimes.” “Then will you forget me someday, if that symptom hits you again?” She asked earnestly and out of curiosity. I gave it a deep thought, tried to apply it to some analogy and see if it works. “I don’t think so; it won’t be the same for human being. So far, it happens to things when I’m in work or maybe I should say I only realize it occurring when I’m working. ” I explained. “Memory of a person is not discreet, it’s like a continuously stream over time, like a flowing river, from a canal to a wider river. Shape of the fluid takes on form of rive

Simply beautiful voice

Can't say she sings without skill but rather, more appropriately saying; without much decoration. That simplicity and purity of voice that doesn't need cosmetic and beautification, and it turns out to be a beautiful ordinary voice.

The ugly face

I have known her for five years. We’re not the best known couple among friends but we got along well. We seldom quarrel, not to say we had not raised enough issues to quarrel but we had our own way to tackle it, we came to the consent and agreement on things before we got together, we talked issues over and we discussed together to sort out problems. There was once we had a big fight, and hmm, I shall rephrase the big fight to cold war instead. We managed to get back well together again in two days time, it was like two years for us then. After that we came to really appreciate each other. I don’t really remember the detail of reason why we quarreled; I can say it was a rather long story, that it will take two pages to explain. I won’t be explaining the reason here because that is not the main point. Among my girl friends, she moved me the most. Since the first day we had known each we had unbroken topics of conversation. The conversation was so smooth that even the most tedious and bo
