BYU in a Nutshell

The environment I live in now is very different from any other I have ever been in. In one of my classes, my professor stated, "Well guys, it is the warmest day of the year!" Oh gee thanks. It is like not even twenty degrees outside. Today that same professor said it must be getting warmer because it was actually snowing. Um what?!? It is nine degrees outside, and where I am from it means it is colder when it is snowing. Toto, we are not in Texas anymore. (Yes, I did name my stuffed Boston Terrier Toto just so I could say that) So, it is cold. Some icicles are five feet long, snow comes up to mid shin and it is still coming, and your nose hairs freeze together when you take a step outside. Do you know those cartoons with icicles coming out of their noses? Yeah, it is real.
It is a very fun environment though. First, sledding is so much fun! Making snow angels is a close second in entertainment. Having snowball fights (even though it is against the law here) is also fun. I feel like that is like a Footloose thing. Whatever happened that made them pass that law was probably a freak accident. It is unnatural to not be able to throw a snowball when you are around all of your friends.
The snow is fun and beautiful, summers are better,  and Mormon humor is the best. I found the Facebook page "Overheard at BYU" today. I have gotten nothing done. Here are a few of my favorite examples:

1. 1 day of coal; 364 days of fun... I'll take my chances.
2. I am dragging a poor, dead body behind me: the corpse of what used to be my GPA. 
3. He said he'd bet my temple recommend that I would get an A in the class!
4. *Person behind me starts choking on their lunch in the Wilk* Once they coughed it up: Well played, taco. Well played. 
5. Boy eating breakfast flicked himself in the eye with a spoon: Ouch! I think I just spooned myself!
6. I live in the part of Provo that's so sketch, the missionaries tract there. 
7. JDawgs has grown on me. I think they put a small amount of crack in them so people want more. 
8. Sitting in Bio taking the last weekly test when a knock comes at the door. The professor goes to answer it and pokes her head out the door for a few seconds. She comes back and asks, "(Name), did you order a pizza?" to which a kid got up and ran out to grab his pizza. 
9. Some friends run into each other at the Wilk and start screaming. Some kid looks up and asks if someone just proposed. 
10. Discussing how some people leave the church for silly reasons, professor says if he were to leave it would be because he had a ward full of ugly people. "See ya later!"
11. Now, some people would call that stalking... I call it flirting.

BYU in a nutshell. You just have to love it.
