Nipping into... life and things nice

A friend laughed when I said I thought playing in the snow was as important as studying for exams - it's a glorious day, white and crisp and clean, with big fat flakes falling, and a cold bite to the air - he asked if I was mortgaging my future to pay for the present. But why save the nice stuff for the future if you don't take the time to enjoy it when it comes? The future is now, as well as later. Yes, exams are important. But so is snow. And they both happen every year.
