Celsius and...that other scale...Fa----something

YES. It hit 0 degrees Celsius this week in Uppsala!

This wave of warmth is very much welcome, but sadly the hard packed snow is starting to melt and it's getting increasingly difficult to bike to class without the wheels slipping and sliding in the slush.

I've noticed that not only am I starting to lose my Chinese skills (I fumbled for words when I skyped with my family and talked to my grandmother last week) but I seem to be losing the ability to use Fahrenheit as well. I can tell what is considered cold in Celsius, and to a certain extent what is comfortable and what is warm. However, when someone says a temperature in Fahrenheit to me, I have to sit and think about whether or not it was considered cold back in Ithaca and turn a mental clock backwards to remember.

What's weird is that I can now use Celsius but am only familiar with it in the lower temperatures, whereas I am more comfortable using Fahrenheit for higher temperatures.
