Okay, so it snowed here this weekend. A lot. 22" I think, and due to the fact that there hasn't been snow like this in a realllly long time, you would have thought the world was about to end. Families hauled through the snow to the Smithfield corner store to purchase food to stock up because we were "snowed in". The store reported to be out of chips, all dairy products and Taquitos. Canned goods were also on the verge of being out, but thankfully they had a case of Chef Boyardee in the back room. It wasn't quite like Y2K, but close to it. No, but seriously, all buses and shuttles stopped on Friday night creating a hassle for anyone who wanted to travel out of town to have a good time--but apparently many Point Park students trudged through the snow to the Point where a huge snow ball fight erupted, ending in 3 injuries and one ambulance call. The snowball fight was pretty much the excitement of the weekend at Point Park (which is sad). Anyway as many people tried to make it home from Oakland Friday night, some baseball players continued their spring training and their community service all in one night. 3 baseball players lifted an ambulance out of a ditch with their bare hands, saving 2 cats and 3 small children. Not really. But they did in fact push an ambulance out of a rut, just so that the driver could turn his wheels the wrong way to get himself even more stuck. Everyone reconvened at Saturday brunch, (which turned out to be a picnic) involving much plastic ware, watery eggs and really thick cappuccino. However, props to the dude that made everything happen. Especially because there was no brown lettuce. School is closed today and it reminds me of high school because all 500 kids that go to this school are probably having slumber parties as I write this or possibly extending their weekends. It's kind of deceiving because professors will probably just email us all a ton of crap that is going the be due within the next hour. I recommend checking your email. I also recommend listening to Passion Pit's album - Manners. That's all. Snow is like Christmas morning for Point Park kids.
