Yeah... it's like when you watch that typical US show and they have the British person talking like super-snooty... LOL it's so off...

It does irritate me though. I guess people can't help stereotyping a language though.

Today I took the PSAT exam at my school. At first I didn`t want go because it was cold, wet, and it was raining and you had to wake up early like if you were going school for reals, but it was just to take the test. It was tiring and boring, and I got hungry. Plus, I only slept 4 hrs last night because I couldn`t sleep.

The PSAT is a practice test of what year 12 students take to be eligible for scholarships or grants and to go to a four year university.
So since I`m a junior, year 11, I wanted to take it because it was worth it.

SAT: The SAT Reasoning Test (formerly Scholastic Aptitude Test and Scholastic Assessment Test) is a standardized test for college admissions in the United States.

Haha,  I know a guy from Australia. Funest guy ever
He'd come up to Canada on an exchange program and saw his first REAL snow. x]
He loved it.

I heard from a friend the sun shines in Summer and the snow falls when it's Winter? Like it should. Is this true?

It's already snowing in some parts of the world and it's hot like it's still summer over here >;o *ish jealous*
