Happy Spring!

The vernal equinox occurs at 12:38 a.m. (blog time, i.e., U.S. Central Daylight time) on Thursday, March 20. By the time most of you read this, it will be spring in the northern hemisphere. Oh, and happy autumn to MBers in New Zealand and other points south of the equator.

    Yay! Spring!
    It actually feels like it should be summer break. But the good thing is: spring break!
    And hopefully it will be getting warmer. It’s still so cold.

    Yay! Spring!

    Of course, it all depends on which calendar you go by. Some people would argue (and I think I am among them) that Spring started at Imbolc, in early February. Therefore, this is the middle of Spring, not the beginning.

    *sigh* sometimes the first day of spring is my birthday. Most of the time, it’s the day before. I still like to pretend that the first day of spring is the 21st. Yay!!! Spring starts tomorrow.

    15- But you don’t live in/near Spokane, which is where I’m going to kokonvene with Meow and IBCF this Saturday, and where apparently there is SNOW!

    *grumbles*

    I’m a bit worried though now, because we’ve got to get over the pass and all that, and if there’s snow…

    Pan’s First Day Of Spring:

    –Wake up at incredibly early hour to check out of hotel and get to LEIMUN (Lake Erie International Model United Nations) conference held at Kent State University’s Ashtabula Campus.
    –Debate in last committee session of the conference, for 3 hours.
    –Awards Ceremony
    –Drive in a car for 4 hours

    I think it’s about 30 degrees here now, but in Ashtabula we got 4 inches of snow and it was much colder.

    *shudder*

    Unfortunately I have a really lame spring break this year. It involves me reading 8 books, 7 of which need summaries written, in the next 10 days.
    It’s also very cold here.

    So much for spring. I’m completely depressed because it has been beautiful weather lately, but it is snowing now. We might get a foot! Anyway, my best friend from my old town was supposed to visit today, but she is snowed in. I can’t even go out. :cry: :cry: :cry:

    Hmm, yesterday I went to D.C and the NGA to see woodcuts. There was an amazing photo exhibit, too.
    Then I went and got the living daylights scared out of me at the Folger while watchine Macbeth.
    Today I cleaned my room. And scrubbed it. And I’m wearing flip-flops. :D And a sweatshirt. :roll:

    26~ Well, it wasn’t really warm enough to be wearing flip-flops, actually, I was freezing. It was snowing/sleeting/slushing here today though, so I won’t have them out for awhile it seems. *sigh* But don’t hate me over it!

    It actually felt like spring time today. We could wander around Spokane as much as we wanted, and it was warm and breezy. No snow (like yesterday) at all, except a little at IBCF’s house.

    It was about 40 degrees here earlier in the afternoon. I’m not sure what it is now, but cool enough that I’m going to put on a sweatshirt when I go outside later.

    Our spring here in Pittsburgh is always pathetic. The flowers are always lovely but Pittsburgh probably has overcast skies 300 days a year. There’s only so much you can appreciate from spring without a proper sun.

    That was an exaggeration. We get sun fairly often and the weather was nice for a spell and then died again. We haven’t gotten any snow again, but the weather’s been too chilly to fully appreciate springtime.
