I think we can take slip courses, but they won't teach you what to do when it snows and you have to get uphill. I know just a few basics, but I know that when the day comes my Dad's going to teach me how to drive uphill, there's going to be a lot of stress for the both of us. I noticed I was more relaxed when driving with a stranger (no way in arguing with a stranger for me - that's like with my ski instructor, I didn't want to get in a chair lift and eventually he made me, no point in arguing). I think this one is really bad, it's like the 4th or 5th time it snowed very badly and usually we get like one day of snow, the day after everything is gone. Now it stays for a lot longer. The forecast for the next days is also pretty awful

I've never driven in snow before, so I really have to try it now, when Dad or Mom accompany me, since they both have much experience. It's sad the drivers school (or what's it called) never teaches us how to drive in the snow, I think they should make some lessons obligated, and also teach us what to do when we slip. I can understand it's hard walking on ice! I saw a lot of people going down today, and a friend of mine even hurt her tail bone!

Brrr! Stay in if you can! This morning I had my first drive-in-the-snow experience!! Or at least for a couple of meters... We live uphill a little, but we have a street full of cobblestones. So when it snows, it's nothing but ice. Dad was driving and because one car stopped uphill, we also had to slow down and couldn't get up... So we switched places, meaning I had to go behind the steering wheel and Dad got out to push the car up. I did drive a little, and slipped from one side to another. Scary!

How's the pain, did the meds kick in? Well, I'm not so keen on the vampire diaries at the moment... It's like... they started with Twilight and now everything has to have vampires to sell or something. My sister bought me the True Blood omnibus, with the first three stories, but haven't read them, so I don't know yet if I like it : D
