Today's weather was like the colour of the title. The ground and anything that was standing up was white because of the snow and the sky was gray as if it was going to snow any minute. I got up at 8:00a.m. and started doing my morning things when i remembered that i forgot to look outside to see if it was snowing again. To my disappointment it wasn't snowing, but the good thing was that the ground was covered in snow. Usually at my old neighborhood after a snow fall and the sun comes up the snow would all melt. But here instead of melting it stays on the ground! I did make breakfast but i didn't eat it because I remembered that my school had a pancake breakfast today. I went extra early to school. I once again put on my jacket and my mittens but this time i wore an extra mitten because the ones i wore were water proof but really hard to make a snowball with. I then went outside and headed for the school. When i got to the school, i saw a few people playing on the large hill that was at our school. They were sledding down it. Our first class was suppose to be French but instead we had pancake breakfast from 9:15-9:45. We ate in the gym and i first had 2 pancakes with a cup of apple juice. It tastes so good when the syrup covered my mouth. It tasted like my taste buds went to heaven. I had a second serving then i stopped eating. After that Santa Claus came and he gave us all oranges for some reason. I guess he ran out of toys this year and replaced it with fruits. We then went back to class and did some French to practice for the French test that was postponed to next year since Tommorow would be our last class before the holiday break. After French was recess  where i would've went and had a snow fight but the snow was so soft i couldn't make a snowball, so much for bringing a snow ball making glove. After recess we had to listen to the teacher read out of The Lightning Thief again. After that the teacher gave us a choice of what we wanted to do out of these three choices: Essay writing, art threading, classroom games. Everyone yelled out ART so that;s what we did. I wasn't mad or sad because i think art is a way to make time fly. We were working on a threading art project which took awhile so it took us all the way until lunch. At lunch i ate my lunch and then the PA turned on and the voice of our principle said "Good Afternoon staff's and students, today there will be a staff verses students volleyball game going on in the gym, if you wish to watch you must bring a canned item, thank you and have a nice lunch time." I was on the volleyball team so i ran downstairs to the gym to get things set up. A few minutes later out first team was playing. The boys had 3 teams and the girl had 2 so it took us  all the way until 1:15 for all the teams have one chance to play the teachers. All the teams except us had lost against the teachers. My team was the competitive team and we tied the teachers. It was fun but right after that we got to go to the bowling area called REV's and bowl for the rest of the day. I scored 94 on my first game and 70 on my second, i guess i wasn't built for bowling. After that we all got to go home. At home i had to send my newspapers but the sidewalks were covered in snow so i decided not to go but instead did my homework and shovel out the step to the house. By the time my parents came home, the whole walk way was clear of any snow. I was so hungry after that and thank mom for making dinner so quickly because i ate right away. After that I was pretty bored so i went on computer.  

                                                                 THE END!! have a nice snowy day.
