strong personality: it's fall!

One of the things I found out about Winnipeg is that it has a strong personality. Summer wasn't even over yet and it was 6 degrees in the morning, then in the afternoon suddenly turned to 25. Now fall just started and today it's supposed to be 29. Strong personality, that's all I have to say.

Since my first day here all I hear from people is: "Ohh the winter. Get ready for it, it will be COLD", and by cold they mean -40. Do I know what this feels like? NO. Have no idea. The coldest I've ever got was -20 in Toronto and I didn't leave the house until it got warmer, because I was very afraid of freezing, literally.

So yeah, winter will be interesting. Like my mom says, "Your biggest challenge will be nature." Not people, not language barriers, NATURE. hahaha

This is the view I wake up to everyday. Fall started this week and suddenly the leaves turned from green into yellow, orange and red. It got warmer and we had sunny beautiful days!

I went on a walk with my mom to enjoy the remaining sunbeams from summer. It was so nice!

I really don't know what winter will look like but I bet it will be just as inspiring as fall is.
When the leaves fall down from the trees looks like it is raining. The roads become a giant pool of leaves and the cars are covered in yellow, orange and red shades.

I still didn't finish assembling my dresser. I didn't have time at all to work on that this week. A lot of school work was due today and I really wanted to put an effort on them. Hopefully today I'll be able finish it!

This is my mom's last weekend here in Winnipeg :(
She will go back to Brazil and ten days later my dad is coming to visit me :D
I hope he loves this city as much as we do!

The picture below it's just a reminder to myself. I loved that sentence. "Pain is not a lifestyle."

Hope you guys have a great weekend! :)
