Four years ago in February, Cincinnati got hit with an intense icestorm that got us out of school for 3 days. I spent endless hours playing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and eating Pop Tarts. Go public schools!

I never really anticipated that something like this would happen again! But the Weather Channel reported thoroughly on the fact that a Snowmageddon was going to change life as we know it.

That was when Butler University announced it would be closed on Tuesday–Monday at 6 PM before anything even started.

News report? Check.

Official Butler page with cheering students? Check.

The most natural thing to do on your snow day is to run immediately to your car, dig it out, and go out to get lunch. This process was a lot slower than I just made it seem. The campus was COVERED in ice, and that means everyone’s cars were encased in at least half an inch of ice.

3 workers + 25 minutes = unfrozen car.

Imagine our surprise when it was announced at 2 PM on Tuesday that Butler would be closed on Wednesday also! YEAH! We watched stupid Lifetime movies and painted our nails. Snow days aren’t for catching up on all of the studying I haven’t done. pshaw.
