man you should have been here lik 5 years ago. We got some pretty bad snow actually. I'm sure it's nothing like you Canadians get, but in ten minutes all you could see was white. It sucks because I was on my way home on the high way and you couldn't tell where the road ended. That was a bad snow storm. Usually people freak out and call out of work and shit because we get snow. It isn't even enough to go have fun in.

Lol really?? Dang that's intense. I don't like the storms here though. My first year here we had that earthquake and then the hurricane. When I heard about the hurricane I was like, "fuck this place". But it turned out to not be so bad for us. Yeah the rain can come down pretty hard and out of nowhere. I hate driving in that. I get so stressed out.

I live in BC. We have 1471 yearly Cm of snow and back in '99 we had a blizzard that was dropping 145 in that one day. Plus, we had that time (also, 1999) where we had 968 CM measured as the highest we've gotten at once. That's 9.6 metres. I remember I was like 2 and I tried to go outside and I ran forwards through the door and ended up half-buried in a huge block of snow.

We have way more snow then you.

I know I don't live where you guys live but let me just say I hate it, in any place where it just randomly starts pouring OUT OF NOWHERE.

Then when you get used to the pouring it just stops and your like "Dafuq?"

That just happened to me and my grandma yesterday. We were talking on the phone with my aunt and it just started fucking pouring for five minutes and I'm like

"Watch its gonna randomly stop"

Sure as shit it just all stops like that. Then starts up again a few minutes later.

Lol yes.

Speaking of world tragedy, I've decided out of nowhere that I want to get involved in emergency management. And that's basically what FEMA does. It's my dream to eventually work for them after I gain experience at state and local level. Just coordinating disaster recovery. So my plan is to major in Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness.

Spanks. Also computer programming is a good idea. Those IT and tech jobs are so in demand right now. It's ridiculous. There will be no shortage for you lol
