Haha! Snowdays, gotta love em. First part of the english finals were supposed to start today too. We're just supposed to choose a book we read during the semester and explain how its real in a 6 paragraph essay. Its going to be easy, dont feel like studying, I'm the best in my class (I was put in an Academics class, wouldnt show by the idiots in it), but I guess a little studying on fragments and run ons wouldnt hurt.

Cheers,
Preston

My snow days were just after Christmas--- the temperatures got down to about -20 deg. celcius in the wind chills. And man, those wind chills were strong! I found that my car got colder the more I drove it, backwards! Alas, nothing got cancelled. I guess we're used to black ice and such here.

I thought I was going to have a two hour delay becuase the roads were cleared by 8:00. But I still got the whole day off to do a stinking project (still working on).

RPGamer, where do you live at?

Maybe 1/2 an inch so far this winter, no snow days. Last year, we had a level 3 emergency. Even the universitys and OSU med center closed down. For those that don't know what a level 3 is, you can get arrested if you're caught driving anywhere. The city itself is basically closed. Something like 3ft of snow! Let the snowman compo begin!
