Today I spent the entire day inside. My landlords are re-doing their roof, so there was debris everywhere, some blocking my door for a while. As inconvenient as it was, I didn't mind so much (although Simon was dying to go out), as I didn't have any plans to go anywhere, plus, it was cooler in my place, even with the windows closed (I had to keep ( Read more... )

Because I go to UBC, something that was on my "to buy" list was rain boots. (Regularly, the road in front of Wesbrook was blocked off, because a small lake would form.) But being a student, I haven't had time to buy any, and thankfully I only stepped in one puddle at UBC during my first semester. However, yesterday, I really wished that I had ( Read more... )

Today was pouring rain, so of course my umbrella broke this morning.

Since the weather is now warm enough (what a change from just a month ago!) and my uterus appears to have expelled all its endometrium (after three weeks, I hope that's the last of it!), I can now finally start wearing skirts and dresses to school!

WTF, it's snowing.

Just as I was leaving school, it started pouring rain (there was even thunder), and I was without an umbrella. Normally I carry an umbrella in my knapsack at all times, and earlier this year I bought a super small, light-weight umbrella so that it would be easy for me to carry (my books are heavy enough!), but Dave broke it, so I have been ( Read more... )

This afternoon I went to the library to study, and on my way there, the wind was absolutely crazy. It was so strong, that it was hard to walk. The wind would either push you forward (I could feel myself accelerate), or push against you, making it difficult for you to walk forward. Also, I found it difficult to breathe. There were times when ( Read more... )

It appears to have stopped snowing now, but there's still plenty of snow on the ground. I was surprised when it was snowing yesterday, and still snowing this morning. And it was real snow-not rain disguised as snow. I love the snow but Vancouver hardly gets any, so it's really exciting when it does snow, and doesn't melt after a few hours.

Wah wah wah! It's raining. I'll post about it in the Vancouver community because I have nothing better to do than complain.

Get over it. Sometimes it rains, and sometimes it's sunny. Sometimes it's cold, and sometimes it's hot. Weather changes, what a fucking concept. Just because it is not 35C and sweltering 365 days a year doesn't mean we ( Read more... )

Today was the first day in several days that I didn't feel dizzy from the heat. I was still disgustingly hot and dripping with sweat when I went out, but I wasn't dizzy ( Read more... )
