The Life of 3G: snowed in.

Look how beautiful our home is in the snow!

We too, in Clinton South Carolina were affected by the blizzard of 2011. We woke up on Monday morning to the sight of campus covered in thick beautiful snow to which we said, "let's go back to sleep". So on 3G we slept in a little bit on Monday morning before heading out to face the snow head on. We put on every piece of clothing we own. Most wore at least two pairs of pants, three pairs of socks, two shirts, some sort of fleece, a jacket and then a heavy coat. A lot of us didn't have gloves so we were resourceful in using socks over our hands... they didn't stay dry long.

So we found every sort of flat bottomed item, ie laundry baskets, Tupperware containers, lids, boxes and we took them to the stadium for the great hills. Here we are walking on the main road on PC's campus.. a complete block of ice and snow.

Once we got there, Mary Brown decided to pull some moves out on her own. The snow was a bit too thick and powdery for our likings so we tried every way we could to just get down a durn hill.

We were all just getting frustrated with the lack of sledding, so we went back to the dorm and laid around--- for the next two days. When we got back, it look like the hall had exploded. Every piece of clothing we wore out in the snow was wet and cold so all the wet clothes just laid in the hall, along with our wet boots. We watched a lot of netflix, took very few showers, took personality tests, caught up on our television, played uno, and did the saltine challenge. It's apparently not humanly possible to eat four saltines in one minute. Here's a clip of us trying to do so, you know defeat the odds.

We ate smores, and made messes---

Then, the last night before classes were to start back (Wednesday night) Maria, Mary Brown, Emily, Katie and Liz got away for a little while. We had a brilliant idea given to us to take a cookie sheet and sled down the ICE at the stadium. Naturally we couldn't back down from a challenge. So that adventure began with this--Mary Brown falling on our way to the hills....and not being able to get up because of the ice.
