Hey unky. How is it going? Are you done your essay I was just reading about? Sounds interesting.

Unknown008 · Jan 8, 2010, 07:19 AM

Yes, I 'm done with it. Four more to go for next Friday, pfft!

Wow. Your work load seems so much heavier then what I ever had to do. I don't even remember it being that much in college.

The worse project I have had was I had to create a company and write out this big thing. I had to explain what it was and why I felt the need for it in the economy. I had to do a report on the money end of it like my cost and expenses and assets and all of it. Just every detail. Then I had to get up in front of the class to try and sell it. Uuggghhhh it was such a long process and so much research and I hated it.

Well, that's because I 'build up' work :o

I had the robot project, then the MUN conference, then examinations (by the way, those essays are work for tuition). I don't like to have given less work than I should have done. The teacher doesn't mind much about it, he will just put 'quite regular' instead of 'regular' a card he uses to keep record of the payments. I just feel I have to do those... even if I don't want to.

You're a good student for sure.

I am sure your enjoying that tropical weather. Its snowing here again... sigh But its beautiful.

It's not snowing here... it's making too hot! I can swear I'm sweating at least about 1 litre of water each night!

I asked Alty to send some snow, but it melted before coming here. :(

We've got plenty of snow here too unky, not sure if you saw that satellite view of the UK and it was completely white, its brilliant :D

Hey bear.
Do you normally get snow? I don't know if that's a stupid question or not. What's your weather normally like?

albear · Jan 8, 2010, 07:55 AM

Hi sunny
No we hardly ever get snow, and even if we do its usually gone within the same day, just some light snow that doesn't stick, we haven't had snow like this in a long long time

Unknown008 · Jan 8, 2010, 07:57 AM

Hey Bear! :)

According to BBC, it's the coldest winter you're having for the past 10 years... And I'm sure it's the hottest summer we're having here for the past 10 years...

88sunflower · Jan 8, 2010, 08:01 AM

I have noticed the weather every place has been wacky this year. Funny.

albear · Jan 8, 2010, 08:01 AM

Hi unky, yes it is, our grit supplies are running low so the councils are only gritting where necessary and apparently our gas supplies are running dangerously low as well.

Driving at the moment is very dangerous, and I've got to make my journey back to the midlands soon and there's more snow on the way :)

Unknown008 · Jan 8, 2010, 08:05 AM

Oh, yeah, BBC also showed how driving was difficult. They showed a small car going round a corner at about 10 km/h and it skidded. It skidded despite the low speed... oh and an elderly woman who slipped because of the frozen road. They said that there were even some people trapped in their homes during the festivities...

Must be the climate change issue...

albear · Jan 8, 2010, 08:13 AM

Agreed but I'm not complaining... yet :)

88sunflower · Jan 8, 2010, 08:16 AM

Its funny to see you talking like that. As we would say here "Welcome to the north country" That's what we call the area I live in. Its like that all winter. You just get used to it. Snow covered roads and people are drive 50 mph down them.

albear · Jan 8, 2010, 08:22 AM

Talking like what? Do you mean when I mentioned the midlands? because I'm originally from the north west :)

Sorry if I'm over enthusiastic about snow :o

tickle · Jan 8, 2010, 08:28 AM

For the most part our weather here in southeastern Ontario has been pretty good. Temps have been -10c most days, although today we are enjoying -8c !
Some snow and slippeery driving conditions. A tractor trailer carrying a load of steel pipes jacknifed across the 40l (6 lane hwy at this point) not causing much damage and no one was seriously injured, thank god. This stretch of our highway going east to Montreal and west to Toronto is not the best in snowy weather.

The good news is, our days are getting a little longer, more daylight is what I mean, and cross country skiing is excellent right now.

Just talking about the weather and how its different for all of us. We get tons of snow so the driving and people slipping and stuff is an every day thing here. But when the mid-summer heat comes unky is used to that so he will find humor in us talking.

Hey tick. I noticed the days getting longer also. I am liking that.
