    I just got accepted to college 2 weeks after I sent in an application. I don't know whether that means I'm really smart or the college is really dumb.

    Mate I was the first person in my class, if not the whole school, to get accepted and it really didn't do me much good. I got mine like 2 months before everyone else.

    We have this myth that if the weather is foul (as in if there's snow and ice) on February 2nd spring is 2-3 weeks away. If the weather is sunny spring won't come until mid April. Bar a few exceptions in recent years due to global warming this has been confirmed to be mostly true.

    Right now the weather can only be described as Fimbulvinter

    Every time I see one of those all I can think of is Bill Murray

    That's a relevant reference isn't it? I'm fairly sure it is.

    LOL, this does not apply here. In 2 or 3 weeks there will STILL be snow and ice on the ground

    I had to go and clear out the snow this morning and I literally couldn't tell where the stairs, the side walk and the road were. Literally knee deep but I only shoveled in a straight line from my door to the car, all my neighbors can suck it. There was no school and no mail, it seems only major roads and hospitals were open.

    But much to my joy (or rather unfortunately that it had to end) I finally beat Dragon Age Inquisition, and it only took me like 2 weeks straight.

    It was raining heavily this morning with a general forecast for rain, but the weather kept doing the switcheroo until finally the heavens parted and blue sky and the sun came out permanently. It was just lovely to sit in the park this afternoon.

    That's about as hot as it gets here in Canada during the summer.

    Well, i kinda failde to express it, 30-5c is a normal day, 22-28c is a normal night, and in hot days it's 38c +. Not not mention the tropical storms that folow each 40+ day. Right now it's 05:10 am, and it's 25c, with no winds at all. GOod part is that i live in the subtropical part of Brazil, Brasilia for instance becomes hell on earth on summer, instead of just highly annoying like here.

    There are parts of Australia I've been to where the average temperature is 35 degrees. In winter. Lovely stuff.
