|
|
hey guys, i know at least some of you have to be sharing this horribly cold weather right now with me!
it was -3 when i woke up this morning, and we've warmed up today to a high of a toasty 5 degrees.
but it's also incredibly windy! 20mph winds makes for a -15+ wind chill factor. half of the high schools around here are closed today because it's just that cold outside. which, is stupid consideirng most schools are enclosed, so once you're in there, you're okay! us poor college kids have to walk all over campus up and down hills and we have no such luck with cancellations.
anybody else freezing their hiney off? i know i am. it literally hurts if you have any skin exposed.
i miss tennessee!! hahah _________________ 'Will always said he was the fox and that I was the bunny. Who's the bunny now!'

I'm at my grandparents' house in Georgia right now, so it's not that bad outside. I'm in for a shock when we head back to PA tomorrow, though! I can't even imagine it being that cold! _________________ FF48- 6th FF49-7th FF53-11th FF55-11th FF56-8th FF57- 13th FF59-8th Amazing RealityFire- 5th |

yeah i agree it is extremely cold outside I can't stand it anymore. I love walking places (most of my friends live close, same with the food places we go to etc) but now i just have to get rides and even then its still freezing in the car. the good news is the ground hog came out i guess they want the last few weeks of winter to be the coldest _________________ Jen: I don't think it's good to cheat on people.

Did the ground hog say it was suppose to be an early spring? I hope so, because has been in the negatives at night here in Indiana. It SUCKS!!! _________________ "You are what you love, and not what loves you back." |

For you people who think you have it so bad with the cold weather, put yourselves in my shoes.
Im pretty sure we havent made it over 0 degrees for 5 or so days. And we have been as low as -35 (WITHOUT windchill) the last few days. Im not sure, but i would guess Minnesota has the lowest average temp this time of year of the lower 48 states.
Its no fun really, i mean who wants to step outside and have their snot INSIDE their nostrils freeze immediately?!? Thats what happens to us when its that cold.  _________________ "I can drink a whole Hennessy fifth, some call that a problem but i call it a gift!" ~ Xzibit - "Get Your Walk On"

I hate that feeling when the snot freezes inside your nostrils...ick...
If it's -35 without the windchill then what is the windchill (dare I ask...)? Are they closing schools and all that jazz up in Minnesota? I mean surley they are if they are closing schools in IN. _________________ "You are what you love, and not what loves you back." |

yea it would be very funny to see me. i was freezing the other day and thought i was going to die when it was in the 30's. but if i was in the -30's i would surely die. your snot really freezes? that is nasty and it sounds painful. i'm glad i'm in the south. _________________ Ole Miss Rebels- 2006 SEC Baseball Tournament Champions; 2007 SEC Basketball Western Division Champions |

ya it really does freeze! like you know how your nose runs when its 30 degrees there? well when its below 0 it runs too, and when you sniff you can feel it freeze inside your nose...its crazy dude, believe me!
And GGG, schools were closes all over the state a few days ago when it was at the coldest....its just weird to think a school full of kids could be stopped by coldness. I dont recall that happening when i was still in school!  _________________ "I can drink a whole Hennessy fifth, some call that a problem but i call it a gift!" ~ Xzibit - "Get Your Walk On"

yeah, they've been doing that to schools around here - which doenst really make sense considering once you go into the school you're not leaving.. in college we are walking all around campus. where's our days off?!
and yeah i'm pretty stoked about the colie thing, i hope i get to party with her! i will be sure to post pictures if i am successful in my endeavor  _________________ 'Will always said he was the fox and that I was the bunny. Who's the bunny now!'
