Snow Hype

Snow Snow Snow.

*Begin rant*

Now now england, dont get too excited it's just a bit of snow! These newsreaders on midlands today..take everything so flipping seriously. So what if all the schools were closed and only 18 open in worcestershire... so WHAT? Who wants to go to school and do maths and english, when its chucking it down with 10 centimetres of snow outside? No one. And thats the truth.
I watch my local news every night ; yes call me sad...and they have these reporters dotted around the place donned in hats, scarves and gloves looking ridiculously freezing holding a microphone. And what do they do? Stand there telling us its snowing when I can see for myself that its chucking it down!
Gah, they make such a fuss as well.... reports like..
"Parents angry as headteacher shuts school due to snow"
"Children should be in school, life has to go on"

Yeah but if the roads are mega slippy, and its too dangerous to even get to school then whats the point? Have a few days off, stay at home, drink hot chocolate, play in the snow & HAVE FUN! Argh...
My old school, was shut and the 5 years I was there it never shut once. At 8am this morning both my brothers were informed they had the day off and were over the moon. The headmaster then sent a huge email out to all parents on the email list telling us how he will be "on site tomorrow at 7am , to check the situation" and Im like..oh just close it forgoodness sake! lol. Make such a fuss. Whats one day off gonna do? Nothing!

ALL the schools were shut in my town except ONE, the one where my Mum works! Gutted! She had to go in, but apparentley there were only 16 year 6's in! Like whats the point? Grrr.

I took the day off, I didnt wanna go in as It was snowing outside...but I slept until 1pm and thats why Im awake now typing this as I only got up twelve and a half hours ago lol *weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee* :)

This week has been uneventful to say the least.
Well...On Monday I went to Telford and dropped off my Unit 4 I'd spent most of Sunday working on, and then Mum and I went into the town centre for a bit and had a gorgeous hot chocolate from Hotel Chocolat (it was heaven) and then we went and got Sam's new phone for him and then I met up with Charlotte. We managed to get ourselves a pair of size 9 shoes *gasp* from New Look which was good, and I bought a trendy new scarf which is now my obsession <3. I advised Charlotte to buy a hot chocolate from Hotel Chocolat and after she bought hers, I gave in and bought my second one of the day...mm liquid chocolate <3. We then went back to her house after a really long bus journey in the snow, and then a good half an hour walk in the falling white good stuff. We got back soaked, and then watched edward scissorhands and ate pizza ^_^ good fun.

Tuesday was highly uneventful...I can't even remember what happened. Oh wait, I walked round the cemetary with Mum and Maxie whilst waiting for David and Sam to come out from school. That was it.

Wednesday I worked at Abacus, and was pleased to see the children again. They got me doing everything to washing paint pots to serving food but to be honest its all good. I managed to calm naughty David down again and the staff were impressed. Greg, one of the nursery nurses, then asked me to keep the kids occupied for 10 minutes so I played "Rachel says" with them and they ALL listened to me and I got them reading a book silentley on the floor. Greg was impressed!
The staff then ordered a KFC for me (I payed them back) and Val the cook made me a coffee...and I only volunteer! I'm well in now ;)
So all in all that was good.

Today has been so uneventful....it included sleeping, sleeping, watching tv, computer, showing Vinicius the snow outside, music, more tv, more computer. Thats it! Wow , Lazyness <3

Tomorrow : More lazyness <3

Dear Londoners, Southerners and Midlanders...

Stop stealing our snow. I've only had half a day off school this week and I'm dying.

You.. you.. you SNOW HOGGERS!!!

Yours sincerely,

A cold but not snowed-upon person.


Harumph...
