Hi everybody, happy new year. I hope you guys had a wonderful holiday and I'm excited to see you guys in person again.

2
00:00:06,900 --> 00:00:10,060
So Jaime had the great idea to talk about my experience with snow.

3
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,279
If you remember, I come from a very cold place in Boston.

4
00:00:13,779 --> 00:00:18,859
It can be cold from October all the way through April. It's even snowed in April before.

5
00:00:19,379 --> 00:00:21,339
So I have a lot of experience with snow days.

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:28,679
My worst year was when we had 10 snow days. That was the worst winter of my childhood.

7
00:00:28,679 --> 00:00:33,700
so for 10 days even Boston couldn't handle the amount of snow so it was maybe three or four

8
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:40,979
times worse than the snow that you guys just had I do have some fond memories of snow and snow days

9
00:00:40,979 --> 00:00:47,820
so when I was little me and my sister who's five years older when it would snowstorm or blizzard

10
00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:54,840
we'd go outside in our driveway where the cars are parked and it was so high that the cars were

11
00:00:54,840 --> 00:01:00,280
practically buried in snow so we would climb on top of the cars and we would get on top of the

12
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:05,280
roof of the car and we would just jump right into the snow because it was so thick that we would

13
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:11,359
just land in the snow and it was it was really fun I don't recommend doing it here by the way

14
00:01:11,359 --> 00:01:16,120
um but yeah so in Boston the snow was so high that we would love to do that when we were little kids

15
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:22,900
um and now I just want to talk about a few of the ways that you can bundle up or wear lots of layers

16
00:01:22,900 --> 00:01:28,400
in the cold and in the snow. So one of my favorite things to do is to wear scarves.

17
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:33,400
If you see me outside of class, I'm probably wearing a scarf. You wrap it around your neck

18
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:40,719
like this. Or one of my favorite ways is to wear it over my head when it's really cold

19
00:01:40,719 --> 00:01:47,200
so that it covers my ears and I stay nice and toasty warm. Another thing that's important in

20
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:54,379
the snow is gloves so my hands get cold very easily so you can either wear a regular pair

21
00:01:54,379 --> 00:01:59,859
of gloves like this or you can wear fingerless gloves which I like whenever I need access to

22
00:01:59,859 --> 00:02:06,780
my phone so I have my fingers free but my hand still stays warm and then of course you need lots

23
00:02:06,780 --> 00:02:13,400
of layers with a jacket so I have this lightweight jacket even though it keeps you very warm

24
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:20,800
and then I pair that with my long coat that goes down below my knees and then the last thing that's

25
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:26,280
very important I almost didn't bring them because I was like it's not gonna snow in Madrid and I'm

26
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:32,599
so glad I brought them my boots so a good pair of boots is great to have in the snow and the ice

27
00:02:32,599 --> 00:02:38,680
because as you've seen it's probably it's not a good idea to walk around with sneakers in the

28
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,560
snow because you're slipping and you're sliding and it's harder to walk but with a good pair of

29
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:49,300
boots, you get the grip, and you can walk a lot easier in the snow. So hopefully that is some of

30
00:02:49,300 --> 00:02:55,039
the ways that I'll see you guys bundled up for school this week. I will see you soon, and have

31
00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:57,139
a great and restful snow day. Bye!
