The snowy commute<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chandraalilijah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/img_3821.jpg?resize=640%2C480&ssl=1\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s 7:25 a.m., and my car is kinda cleaned off. I got a backpack, a badge, a homemade latte, and two mismatched shoes. I can\u2019t drive in platforms anymore, my uncle told me to STOP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Left foot, cowboy boot, and right foot FAKE \u201cCroc\u201d shoe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I turn on my \u201ca music love letter to you\u201d playlist and sigh. The road is a mess, my windshield wipers are kinda working, and the freeway is packed, HONEY!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The formula<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEast 1999\u201d is playing, and the car next to me is cruising at about 30 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am doing about 23 mph, holding onto the wheel very TIGHTLY. Something about my car sliding is NOT RIGHT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(It took three snowstorms and a few looks from a couple of male drivers that made me feel like\u2026 some ain\u2019t right!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s a reason that 4H exists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t use 4L unless you really have to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyway, so yeah. \u201cThe Rain ( Supa Dupa Fly)\u201d came on once I got off the freeway, and I was like, \u201cOH, yuh!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBeep Beep, who got the?!\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You know the rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THE FORMULA FR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
So, I got to my destination on time. EXACTLY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pulled up, took a couple of selfies because making it to the destination was a blessing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It only made sense to take a few pics of my arrival. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes a good drink in your cup holder is the key to a groovy drive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The point <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A solid playlist, a sexy latte, and a few celebratory selfies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can\u2019t lose!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OH! And don\u2019t forget that you probably need to heat up with your car before you get inside for a toasty ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s 7:25 a.m., and my car is kinda cleaned off. I got a backpack, a badge, a homemade latte, and two mismatched shoes. I can\u2019t drive in platforms anymore, my uncle told me to STOP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Left foot, cowboy boot, and right foot FAKE \u201cCroc\u201d shoe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I turn on my \u201ca music love letter to you\u201d playlist and sigh. The road is a mess, my windshield wipers are kinda working, and the freeway is packed, HONEY!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The formula<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEast 1999\u201d is playing, and the car next to me is cruising at about 30 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am doing about 23 mph, holding onto the wheel very TIGHTLY. Something about my car sliding is NOT RIGHT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(It took three snowstorms and a few looks from a couple of male drivers that made me feel like\u2026 some ain\u2019t right!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s a reason that 4H exists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t use 4L unless you really have to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyway, so yeah. \u201cThe Rain ( Supa Dupa Fly)\u201d came on once I got off the freeway, and I was like, \u201cOH, yuh!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBeep Beep, who got the?!\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You know the rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THE FORMULA FR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
So, I got to my destination on time. EXACTLY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pulled up, took a couple of selfies because making it to the destination was a blessing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It only made sense to take a few pics of my arrival. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
