My usual day

February 19,2013

The past two weeks were hectic especially with the weather we've been having lately.School was cancelled the past few mondays and tuesdays which made it boring and also made the days long.We had alot of snow come down, and i dont think mother nature is done yet.In school we are learning fractions and covered alot so far.For me school gives me confidence and i enjoy being in a classroom rather than sitting at home doing nothing.Knowledge is power, and i believe the more knowledge you have the better the future would be for us.

Cape Breton storm

February 13,2013

This passed two weeks was hectic on our lovely town of Glace Bay.The storm kept everybody on their toes and the snow was unreal.It was pretty hectic especially when we got the freezing rain and you couldnt see out your windows.The visibility was terrible, and the roads were pretty slippery and slushy.I spent my days shoveling snow,doing my projects,and cleaning my house.My cat dawn ripped my fraction poster all up so now i have to do it over again.It was definitely a good old fashioned Cape Breton winter storm,and one we will not forget.For some people there was no power, but for me i didnt have any trouble with that as far as that goes.
