So, my three weeks vacation is just about over, with my classes starting up again on Monday. This semester looks to be a good one, each day I go from 10:30-12:30 (or 1 on Tuesday/Thursday) with a three hour film class every monday night (watch movies, 3 credits, whoo) and two hours of bowling each week. Can you say "skiing Tuesday, Thursday and Friday of every week" ? I've got a sweet schedule for the 16 credits

And while I'm eager to leave the rainy San Francisco bay area--seriously, what is this crap? I haven't seen this since that El Nino when I was in sixth grade--for some skiing in the mountains of Utah, I'm not eager to make the drive. I-80 through the Sierra mountains and throughout Nevada is supposedly in shit condition right now. On the way out, the roads were clear as could be, and I had the cruise set to 84 the whole way. A friend of mine made a similar drive just a couple days ago, and what took me 11 hours to drive a couple weeks ago took him around 17 hours. Not only that, but the backroads I usually take to get around the congested SLC area will likely be unplowed and crappy, so I'll have to take the long way. I'm just hoping they aren't requiring chains on 4x4's, because that would mean the weather's really bad, and I'll have to shell out some extra cash

Anyone else have to travel a long way to get back to school or wherever?

I'm moving all the way to the other side of town about a month into the semester, so I'll be driving an hour to get to school 4 days a week ( with traffic ). However I just have to take one major road to get there so it's really not that bad.

headed to SLC eh? Going to the U I presume? If so, Beware that film class, the lady shows some BAD movies ;D. I'm in SLC right now, roads are fine, hardly any snow, abit of rain. The mountains look like they're getting hammered though.

are you living in the dorms? Drop me a PM, I'm in Building 810. Maybe we could hit up snowbird and go mountain biking sometime

I'm only taking 3 classes Life Drawing, Color Theory, and Layout and Design. I only have class two days a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays), but if all goes well I'll be working tech support in the media center other days. I need money hard.

Actually I go to USU

I usually drive around Salt Lake when headed for Logan, but the roads are really isolated and it's not somewhere I want to get stuck if a storm blew in, or if they don't plow the roads or whatever.

Anyway, congrats on your bowl win, sorry we had to kick your asses so hard in basketball though That game killed my voice for an English presentation I had couple days later

I went to school today, but they sent me back because the class was canceled, as in, they're not holding it whatsoever. So I have another three weeks of vacation I hadn't counted on.

I go back tomorrow and start classes again on Wednesday. I'm looking forward to my schedule this semester. I pretty much have classes all day on Tuesday and Thursday with a lab in between on Wednesday, but I have Mondays and Fridays off. Should be very nice.
