“Oh the weather outside…”

By Will

It started off as a chilly day, but I didn’t think it would get colder as the day went on. Boy was I wrong…when I went outside to catch the after school bus I could see my breath! I heard we might actually have a chance of seeing a few snowflakes tonight which would be pretty cool. I’ve never disliked the snow, but I do grumble occasionally when I need to wait outside in the morning to catch the bus to school. Nothing sucks more than having to wake up from your warm bed to stand outside in nature’s “coolest” weather. The temperature is supposed to drop down to -2 degrees celsious (about 24 fahrenheit) tonight which is probably the coldest it’s been yet where I live. Just a few more words on this: Brr! Brr! Brr!

I had a pretty lazy day at school today. I couldn’t find my box of contact lenses so I was quite blind today. Film studies was fun because I couldn’t really see the movie and whenever my teacher was talking to me I thought for sure they were looking at other “Ryans” in the room. It was pretty brutal. I could have worn my glasses I suppose, but I’ve never liked wearing them. I think it’s the frames…I’ve had the same frames since grade 7 so I’m pretty sure all I need to do is pick out a new style. In many ways I don’t like wearing my contact lenses because they irritate me to the point of no return and they seem to dry out far too quickly for someone like me. I’m always on the computer, so this is to be expected I guess. Glasses have always been more practical and it’s definitely my first choice if I’m just going to be staying around the house. Frames are a bit expensive from my doctor’s office though, so I guess I’ve just been putting it off for the obvious reason. I just received a pretty nice pay cheque though so I should probably invest a bit of time into looking for a new look. I wonder if I could pull off the HRG look? haha

Ah! Speaking of Heroes, I think they did a pretty good job last night of pulling the storyline back just a little bit. Last night’s episode didn’t seem to be all about the flash. I also like how they wrapped up Hiro’s little ordeal with Ando. I won’t post any spoilers here, but I will in the Community Chat topic so be sure to check it out!
