I woke up to a dreadful surprise this morning: more snow. Yesterday was practically a spring day - it was around 40 something degrees and it was nice outside. Yet this morning it started snowing and has been snowing ever since. Although I have posted many pictures of snow up here (snow was somewhat of a phenomenon the first few times) I'm going to post some more.

The pictures both above and below are the view from my bedroom window.

Today I was fortunate enough to get one of  very few tickets to see Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor deliver a lecture here on campus. While I admit my political views aren't always consistent with the Yale community's political views, I couldn't pass up an opportunity to see a Supreme Court Justice speak since they rarely ever speak in public. Coming away from it, I can say that all court decisions aside, she is a very intelligent, humble and quite hilarious lady. One of her best attributes is the constant willingness to admit she doesn't know everything, which is always an admirable thing to do. Personally, I think what truly makes a person intelligent is being able to shut their mouth and open their ears more often than the other way around. All things aside, it was an interesting lecture and I'm glad I went.

No, I didn't get a picture of her because the security detail didn't allow electronics once the Justice came out on stage.
