November

Winter swept in unknowingly on the West Coast on this Thursday, which was coincidentally the first day of November. Unlike the previous years, the temperature had dropped rapidly through the night. When I woke up the very next morning, it was already snowing outside. Such weather was quite unnatural for the area that I currently live, but as a young person, I wasn't really surprised by this artificially-induced change.

When I changed for school, I wore my winter uniform, which includes a long shirt and pants, along with a rather warm wool blazer that had the logo of our academy sewed on the chest pocket located on the left side. Just to be safe, I also wore a winter jacket on top, so I wouldn't catch a cold again. As I had just recovered for the second time, I didn't want to be bed-stricken again.
