People from the south experience a different New Year flavor when they visit the north

When I, a southerner, arrived in the north, I was deeply attracted by the charm of this land. The winter in the north is cold, but also beautiful. In the snowy winter, the northern land is dressed in silver, like a fairy tale world of ice and snow. In contrast, the winter in the south, although not as cold, is damp, and the rainy weather makes the southern winter difficult. Compared to the south, the northern winter is drier, with plenty of sunshine and fresh air. The northern winter, with its snow-covered land, is pure and peaceful. The southern winter, though snowless, brings a deep sense of fatigue with its moist air and gloomy weather. The northern winter, with its abundant sunshine and fresh air, feels comfortable and warm. The southern winter, with its humid air and overcast weather, feels oppressive and tiring. However, despite the many differences between the winters in the north and the south, they both have their own beauty. The northern winter, though cold, has a sternness and majesty that commands awe and respect. The southern winter, though without snow, has a moisture and warmth that feels intimate and comfortable. This is the difference between the north and the south, and it is also their characteristic. The winter in the north and the south each has its own beauty and characteristics. The southern winter, though without snow, has a moisture and warmth that feels intimate and comfortable. The northern winter, though cold, has a sternness and majesty that commands awe and respect. This is the difference between the north and the south, and it is also their characteristic. I came to the city of Changchun with a longing heart. The moment I stepped into Changxin College, I was filled with excitement and nervousness. I am from the south and have never experienced real cold. I have seen the heavy snow and ice sculptures of the north on the news since I was a child, but I have never really seen them, nor have I felt the biting cold wind of the north. My understanding of the northeast was limited to television news, and I had no deep understanding of the culture, customs, and food of the northeast. In junior high school, I memorized Chairman Mao's 'A thousand miles of ice, a thousand miles of snow drifting.' I longed for those days of ice and snow. Perhaps because in my eyes, a thin layer of snow on the ground was considered heavy snow. But after coming here and seeing the first heavy snowfall in the north, I gained a new understanding of heavy snow. For people who live in the north all year round, this snow may be sparse and common, but for southerners, this snow is very novel.
