I am going to freeze to death

Just one last thing, since I am in a bitchy venting mood.... the weather out here is not OK.....

It should not be 2 degrees Celsius when I leave at almost 9am to go to class.....that is just not acceptable for my So. Cal raised body... I thought Davis used to get cold... well 2 degrees is freezing, literally... if it were to rain at the moment at 2 degrees celsius it would freeze and become snow. This is bullshit! Don't even get me started on how cold it is at night... this week they predicted lows of -10!!!!!

My body is feeling it too, my lips are super cracked, even though I slather on Chapstick (the good kind too, the medicated kind), everytime I step outside and throughout the day too. My hands are super dry and one of the looked like it was almost going to start bleeding the other day, my skin is super dry ... so no everytime I come home the first thing I do is slather on lotion on any body part that was exposed to the cold... and I started getting dandruff, because of the cold apparently... it's GROSS... but I'be noticed almost everyone has it out here, at least mine isn't visible if I wash my hair daily, but I was trying to wash it every other day, guess that isn't going to work! I noticed it last year too, as soon as the weather gets freezing my body really starts acting up, I guess I'm just not used to it.... because as soon as it warms up just a bit everything goes back to normal. The scary thing is that it gets colder out here.... a lot colder, it's barely November... January and February are going to be brutal!


For all my U.S. based friends, ie people who don't have to deal with the metric system... 2degrees Celsius would probably be mid- to low- 30's... and I'll just let you imagine what -10 would be.... the idea of what it is in Farenheit pains me!
