EXPECTATION: Snow will turn this world into a beautiful winter wonderland
It's going to be just like Narnia!
REALITY: Snow will ruin our hair, our shoes, and our day
Ugh. So soggy and cold.
EXPECTATION: You're going to make the most of the snow with a meticulously planned out snow day.
It's going to be great!
REALITY: Ugh.
Everyone else is at work or at school. Sucks to be you.
EXPECTATION: You're going to have the most perfect snowy moment with someone special
Mmmm, romance in the snow is the best kind of romance.
REALITY: Snowballs are just too tempting…
It's all going to end in tears, y'know.
EXPECTATION: You're going to look so whimsical and beautiful out there in the snow
I shall skip, and I shall twirl, and I shall catch tiny snowflakes on my tongue like a fairy.
REALITY: LOL!
Yeah, just no.
EXPECTATION: You're going to build a snowman
It's going to be magical.
REALITY: It ain't gonna be like the movies, kid
So building a snowman is hard and it takes FRICKIN' HOURS to do. Who knew?
EXPECTATION: Crisp winter walks!
Mmm, we love the outdoors when it's all fresh and white and fluffy.
REALITY: Struggling to navigate snow-turned-ice without slipping
Sigh.
EXPECTATION: The world will talk about the UK's snowpocalypse forever
It's essentially the Day After Tomorrow.
REALITY: The rest of the world is laughing at us and our inability to handle weather.
Seriously, have you ever seen Canada before? Or Iceland? Or anywhere with snow? HAVE YOU?!
