Amreekan winters - 1


Satshriakaal Mausam,

It was predicted that today was going to be the coldest day for this season till now and it sure is!

Though the temperature is 20F or -6 degree Celsius but it feels like 2F or -16 degree Celsius because of the wind!

When I stepped out of the house for work, I was all packed up in multi layers of cloth and then I saw this girl walking briskly on the sidewalk wearing a knee length skirt! I kept staring at her legs for a while to make sure that I was not mistaken. Suddenly, all the criticism I used to heap on girls in India who used to wear skirts at New Year parties where the temperature was mere zero degree seems so meaningless.
If some girl can wear a skirt on a normal Friday morning on way to work when the temperature is -16 degree Celsius then that girl sure is unique. what say you?

Regards,
Ajj Kaim
P.S.-I have named this post amreekan winters 1 coz I will be continue to write a series of posts about my experiences in winter season.

Girls are always like that. they wont even wear woollen caps lest it should spoil the way their hair looks :)

Skirts outside of summers, to me, honestly are impractical - for the girls. But then so are corsets and victoria's secrets. Then again, I believe they are worn for the "experience" and them girls are not the end-consumers of the product anyway.

My two euro-cents...

Skirts are for the summer and warm pants for the winter. But I have a few skirts that I absolutely love and on a sunny winter day I sometimes like to brave the cold and step out in one. Ofcourse california winters can't compare to Boston ones and IMO skirts in -16 C is stupidity+courage :)

i never experienced winter season in my life but definately she does have some kind of resistance towards winter... maybe she has more fats under her skin that might have insulated her...
