Texas Versus Snow

 If you didn't know, Texas was just kicked to it's knees because of 20 degree temperatures and half-a-foot of snow. We didn't have school for a week, almost everyone had burst pipe, the power kept going out because people tried to keep their houses at 80 degrees, senators fled to Cancun, it was a disaster. I wasn't opposed to the full week break with time in the snow and on the Oculus and video games. However the snow actually burst our pipes and started flooding our garage, so we had to shut off the water for a bit until Dad handymanned it and put a temporary fix on it. We never lost power fortunately, but it was always chill in our house. We had fun with our new Oculus Quest 2 and various games, but the snow melted on Friday, and as I'm typing this it is 70 degrees outside, so our true winter break is over and we're back in school for 2 more weeks until spring break.

Snow!

Along with all this winter in Texas, I've been learning to drive, which is both scary and fun, I'm trying to be a good driver so when I turn 15 I can get my permit pretty quickly. My parents say I'm a pretty good driver, but we'll see in the future.
