-my eyelashes froze shut

on the news they blamed canada for our cold weather
i think it might be newsworthy cause people die from this kind of weather who aren't use to it. someone actually did today it reported on the news

What bothers me is, when I walk to school and it's -22 celsius outside. Yes I only had about a 10 to 15 minute walk but still it's bloody cold. Then I get there and my friend who GOT A RIDE and DROVE RIGHT PAST MY HOUSE is sitting there complaing about how he was cold after walking from his car to the school.

ya, you really learn to appreciate the weather back home after you've moved "up north." It's always 10 degrees warmer back home. Today it was -39 with the windchill when I woke up, if this was Welland they would have closed the schools lol.

stupid BC
my friend from BC just went on a ski trip and my friend from home went too and she was like "the weather was nice!" and the BC kid was like "OH MY GOD I THOUGHT THE SKIN WAS BURNING OFF MY FACE"

Yeah, I would feel like that too. I think our coldest winter day got down to -15. I didnt leave the house

We had 17 days of winter weather this year, from Jan. 1 to 17. It was mostly below 0 then, and we had snow. After one day of snow, i was SO sick of it, i wanted it to melt and for sun to come!
I dont think i'll ever live anywhere else

I like hot weather though.
We're back to rain, and 10 degrees everyday

it's like, right where it says "Nanaimo".
actually, i just got back from Squamish, which is only about an hour from Vancouver. I was supposed to be there until friday, but we got to come down today, mainly because it was FLOODING LIKE HELL.
over the past few weeks, the ground completely froze. you could not dig in deeper than 2 cm. plus, it was snowing, icing up, etc. This week has been like, 5 degrees warmer, so snow has been melting, but the semi-permafrost ground isn't. So there was a hell of a lot of water, with nowhere to go. ewwwwwwwwwww.
actually, as i was coming back, the radio was on, and according to some radio station, there were a few mudslides around my area, with destroyed houses, and a woman missing.
