    Not a chance, the snow is stopping and the sun is coming out. You will probably get away from that Eng199 lecture tonight, however expect to come to school tomorrow.

    Hell, I need to get off the hill for groceries. I am a little short on everything.

    Is Eng199 really that bad? I'm taking it via Distance Ed and it's super easy so far..
    Although the TA logs in like twice a week and 'lost' my assignment in the FirstClass system, so I had to take a screenshot to prove when I handed it in...nice.

    Omg what a great day!

    I had already gotten ready for school this morning tho and THEN i heard that campuses were closed. And because of that, my tutorial has been cancelled for tomorrow! AND the assignment that was due next week and is now due the week after :D

    But I dont know if my morning class tomorrow is still on or not....have to wait to hear about that one.

    Such a relaxing day. It was really needed!

    There will be school tomorrow. It is not even snowing up here anymore and the buses are "on schedule" since afternoon today. Unless SFU will again be bombarded with snow tonight, school will be on.

    Update:
    The overnight forecast was for some heavy snow flurries, plus ice, rain, sleet and showers through Wednesday morning, particularly at higher levels such as Burnaby Mountain.
    Decisions on opening/closing of the three campuses on Wednesday will be made at 5 a.m. Wednesday. Watch here for an update then.

    If roads are slippery tomorrow and buses can't get up the hill it could be cancelled.
    I wonder..if burnaby closes will harbour center be closed too even if its not snowing in vancouver?

    We are just getting tired of depending on a third party to determine rather we can go to school or not...

    SFU should consider buying a few Snow Coaches...

    Since this thing is build for off-road, I was considering to parking this thing right behind the MBC in that huge field of nothing.

    hey girl, nah english 199 is NOT hard because i know what im doing like citations and paraphrasing and research mashing but its the 3 hrs every week stuck in a classroom/janitors closet on the 1000 level of the AQ that makes it unplesent. Feels like prison minus the bars and lots of cement
