Having my first real snow day in college brought me back to the childhood joy of getting the day off school due to winter weather. All winter I would perform my ritual to encourage snowfall by wearing my pajamas inside out and asking (begging) God to make it snow. I heard that putting a spoon in the freezer or under your pillow would do the trick, but I never tried it out.
Most mornings were met with disappointment when I was awoken by my mom at the usual time to get ready for school. Having a delay was cool, but never good enough for me. There was nothing quite like looking out the window to a blanket of snow and no where to be.
We would flush ice cubes down the toilet and wear pajamas inside out in hope of getting a snow day off school!
