Yep! It sounds like her friend's hair literally froze to the ground. That's a really weird and sad thing to happen haha

A: @guu-: this means that you are falling, as it looks like the ground is suddenly coming in front of you as you fall. This is often used as a metaphor for problems that are suddenly becoming a big issue, as the ground would be the problem coming quickly towards you, and you are falling fast towards them. People do not often use this in every day talk, but it is a very poetic thing to say

A: Ground usually for outside while floor is inside

A: The ground floor is almost always even with the ground. The first floor may not always be the ground floor, depending on what numbering system is used by the building. Some may label the floor below ground as B (for basement.) There can be two floors below ground, labeled B1, and B2. Sometimes the main floor is labeled L for lobby. Sometimes numbers can skip a floor or the other way around. Some numbers start numbering the actual first floor (whether above or below ground as '1'. Strictly speaking, the first floor is always the actual first floor, if it is the first floor the building has, but don't use that. You can quickly figure out a building floor numbering plan by glancing at the buttons in the elevator. Or if you use the stairs, typically the floor number or name will be on the door before you enter the floor. Be careful when taking the stairs because some places keep the stairwell doors locked and you may have to take the stairs all the way to the main floor. Which brings me to another point, some floors are labeled M for main.
