So I live around the Houston area and I just woke up to come to school as usual.
While on the way, I turn on the radio and start listening how there's a lotta shit going on; the damn swine flu and some retarded flooding because of slow showers.
And then I'm worried cause halfway to the school there's a massive traffic jam, I check the time and I got like 20 minutes to get to class.
I painfully drive it through and after some painful minutes of slowness I finally get to like 3 blocks away from school.
Thing is, the university is like right at the bottom of some sort of concave hole and as I guessed, the entire shit was all flooded.
I parked the car in some crazy spot (it's still there) and had to walk through all the crap to get to the elevated road or something. The view from there it was like seeing a movie; all the shit was underwater, there's a bunch of cops all over the place and a lot of flashing lights... also the little guy with the whistle controling what's left of the traffic.
I go to the room, teacher's not there and there are like 4 other students waiting. I go "damn" and walk away, on the way I find my art teacher walking through the hall, all pissed off talking really loud about how the school sucks cow balls for not cancelling classes today.

So right now I'm at the library, chillin till next class in about an hour. Been a fun day so far.

HAHA! Yea i bet thats a sight to see. When I lived in San Antonio I remember it always flooding. I don't like Houston weather at all but Dallas/Fort Worth's weather can be fucked up as well(hot/cold). And yea I would have to go with ur art teacher on this one for not canceling classes today. If i were you I would just go home and not worry about classes if there isn't much students anyways. Go home and play SC which I was doing at 5am this morning. Oh and we have thunderstorms here as well all through the fuckin week!!!! Well hope u make it out alive.
ya had ya shot kid!

In general, the same words are used in different parts of the world but with minor differences in the definitions. The terminology described here contrasts the differences in definition between the United Kingdom and other British influenced parts of world such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and the United States.[10]

* An intact (i.e., not castrated) adult male is called a bull. A wild, young, unmarked bull is known as a micky in Australia.[11] An unbranded bovine of either gender is called a "maverick" in the USA and Canada.
* An adult female who has had one or two calves (depending on regional usage) is called a cow. A young female before she has had a calf of her own is called a heifer[12] (pronounced /ˈhɛfɚ/, "heffer"). A young female that has had only one calf is occasionally called a first-calf heifer.
* Young cattle of both sexes are called calves until they are weaned, then weaners until they are a year old in some areas; in other areas, particularly with male beef cattle, they may be known as feeder-calves or simply feeders. After that, they are referred to as yearlings or stirks[13] if between one and two years of age. [14]
* A castrated male is called a steer in the United States, and older steers are often called a bullock in other parts of the world; [15] although in North America this term refers to a young bull. Piker bullocks are micky bulls that were caught, castrated and then later lost.[11] In Australia, the term "Japanese ox" is used for grain fed steers in the weight range of 500 to 650 kg that are destined for the Japanese meat trade.[16] In North America, draft cattle under four years old are called working steers. Improper or late castration on a bull results in it becoming a coarse steer known as a stag in Australia, Canada and New Zealand.[17] In some countries an incompletely castrated male is known also as a rig.
* A castrated male (occasionally a female or in some areas a bull) kept for draft purposes or for food[18] is called an ox (plural oxen).
* In all cattle species, a female that is the twin of a bull usually becomes an infertile partial intersex, and is a freemartin.
* Neat (horned oxen, from which neatsfoot oil is derived), beef (young ox) and beefing (young animal fit for slaughtering) are obsolete terms, although poll or polled cattle is still a term in use for naturally hornless animals, or in some areas cattle that have been disbudded.
* Cattle raised for human consumption are called beef cattle. Within the beef cattle industry in parts of the United States, the older term beef (plural beeves) is still used to refer to an animal of either gender. Some Australian, Canadian, New Zealand and Scottish farmers use the term beast, especially when the gender is unknown.
* Cows of certain breeds that are kept for the milk they give are called dairy cows.[10]
* The adjective applying to cattle in general is usually bovine. The terms "bull", "cow" and "calf" are also used by extension to denote the gender of other large animals, including whales, hippopotamuses, camels, elk and elephants.

I'm guessing this has something to do with "school sucking cow balls"

I loled at that part from the story btw

Anyway, sounds like fun.
I always enjoy chaotic situationsEDIT: think I would enjoy such situations, I wish there were more earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, volcanoes (:o woot) etc in Croatia.

What he says is somewhat true, I stayed home for hurricane Ike, I was excited in a weird way about it, and I actually ventured outside during, the wind was fierce, it was a cool experience.
