Snow day! I saw myself watching TV. I didn’t go outside, because I had no one to play with. At least that’s what I thought. Until my classmate, friend, and next door neighbor, Claire Nelson knocked on my back door. My brother and I looked at each other saying, “What is she doing here?” Well I opened my back door and let her in my house. She asked what we were doing, so I told her my brother and I were just watching TV. “Want to come and play?”, declared Claire. “What are we going to do?”, I honestly asked. “We could go sledding”, she responded. “Okay” So we got ready to go outside in the below freezing weather. The snow fell down like sprinkles on the frozen ground. We grabbed our sleds and headed to the small hill behind my house, but when

    If there were to be a massive snow day Thursday, everyone would stay home from school and avoid driving on the streets. On this snow day, I would relax all day, and maybe if there would be enough snow, sledding! To relax I would most likely read and draw all day, with a movie here or there, along with a cup of hot cocoa by my side. I would also play with my cats, if they weren’t sleeping of course.

    Over the past few years the United States has endured some abnormally chilling temperatures. Especially in the northern states, there have been record breaking low temperatures. Temperatures dropped so low that there were videos going viral of people throwing hot water into the air that immediately turned to snow as soon as it hit the cold air. People could also blow bubbles outside and they would instantly turn to balls of ice. There were hundreds of people left with power and some homeless people actually froze to death.

    Snow Country written by Yasunari Kawabata, and translated into English by Edward G. Seidensticker is a work of unending complexity. The multiple themes and symbols that occur throughout the plot, make for a novel that transcends its relatively simple plot to make statements on the state of a character’s place within a rapidly modernizing culture that still holds to its most ancient roots. Snow Country is as much about Japanese culture as it is about relationships and the perception of the past and the state of memory. Through small yet profound motifs, Kawabata conveys themes of the fragility of memory, the relationship between the past and the present, and the representation of the old-fashioned rural setting and modern times, as well as a theme of

Fresh off the ski lift, I coast toward the junction of trails on the unoccupied expert face of the mountain.
