Jingle bells...

We got our first actual snow in Helsinki yesterday and in the evening I couldn't help but feel more than a bit Christmas-y. The white snow trickling down from the sky and the contrast the darkness creates combined with empty streets and a good day overall created a near perfect atmosphere. For a change it just seemed that things were perfect. At least until reality hits you again and you remember how backlogged you are... But it was a nice feeling regardless. And I'm actually looking forward to Christmas this year...
