Snow, Snow, Snow.....
Monday evening it started snowing and it was allmost a storm. the next morning I woke up and we had 20-30 cm new powder snow:) but thats not it, it was snowing the whole thuesday and at the end of the day we had probably 40 cm. the srteets are all horrible, only the important once are shuffeled.
In Saskatchewan will be maybe more snow than in Switzterland but the swiss people are much better organiezed! I dont care it is just so wunderful, snow all over the place.
Now I guess we have halfe a meter the sun is shining and the sky is blue, just awesome! but not everything is so nice, because it is minus 19 celcius and with he windshield minus 30. If you want to be outside you have to wear warm clothes, brrrr..... honestly I thought minus 30 would feel colder;)
Those are just pictures from around the house, so that you have first impressions of it.

So the last past few days were very warm, the snow is melting and its muudy everywhere but for all that all people in Yorkton are in Christmasmood, even Hali and Brent, what I can not really understand, its November!!!! last week we bought light and at saturday we installed them on the house, it looks pretty good actually.

these light are just the beginning

At friday I had no school, because the teachers had reportinterviews. I started the day late, I got up around 12 o'clock. I had no idea what I could do so I went to the fittnesscenter for some information and visit Hali in the shop. I was so pissed of I just wanted to do something, but sadly that is not so easy here. I was so upset that I had to come down a little bit, so I lay in my bed for one hour and listened to Mando Diao, ode to Ochrasy (great album by the way;)) after that and much thinking I was better.

At sunday Hali, a neighbour and I went to Regina shopping and I bought some boots. they are not really Elke but I like them. I needed some boots badly, because I couldn't wear my stuffshoes much longer;)
today I had school and it was the same as usual. tomorrow I may go in my first basketballpracticing, it is at 7 in the morning, so I dont know if I will have a ride or if I can get up;)


so I guest thats it again

Hello,
I am just back in school after a long break. I had 4 days off, because of the remeberance Day, that is a day, which all people remember the soldiers, who died or are still in wars. The long weekend was not very exciting. I slept in every day and I made an apple-pie for Hali, Brent and Brain, because I wanted to say thanks for all they did for me. It took me a long time, but finally it came out very well. At Wednesday we had ice rain and snow, so the streets were horrible. Our driveway was like a slide and it was not much better after I cleaned it, tja. Outside it was probably minus 16 or more, I almost became a snowman.
Back in my warm house, I continued with my OC episodes, because I had still two discs left and I wanted to be finish before the evening. I watched the whole third season in 5 days!
At Friday Brent and I were just hanging around at home, but in the afternoon we decided to go for café and that for few hours:) that was fun, because there are always some friends, or Brent and I player stupid games like tablefootball.
Saturday Hali and I went shopping, she bought a jacket and I two shirts and than we went to her shop and she finally cut my hair. I will show pictures of my hair a other time.
I think this weekend was one of my most boring weekends, because we were stuck in Yorkton because the highways were to ice to go somewhere. we will see how the next weekend will be.
