My snowy day!
Let's say I haven't started my day on the right foot! We had our first snow storm, and it wasn't pretty. Obviously I arrived 35 minutes late for my test even if I left home 20 minutes earlier. Trust me it was just sad to see that my first bus was stuck in snow and we had to take another one. Then, the second bus was stuck into traffic a few stops before school, nightmare... But good thing was that because of the snow they delay the test of 30 minutes so I ended up being 5 minutes late only. The reason that I'm angry is that they closed the school at noon, thus canceling my second test that was in the afternoon. I had to battle wind and snow to get to school while others can site home, warm and comfy. All of that because a few idiots started a rumor saying the school was closed, how can you believe that when it's a final test! No they'll be delayed up to the 23rd, which will make the Christmas vacations even smaller. But I guess that I'll get over it real quick, even considering when 3 people called me during my test to tell me there's no school today *how typical*, wasn't ready for the second test anyway 
Brokeback Mountain Movie Review
With the free afternoon I decided to go to the movies. Brokeback Mountain is a very special movie, it's for mature audience; not because of some male and female body parts we see, but also because if you're immature you'll be shocked by it or you'll snooze the hole 2 hours.
This story has love written all over it, but you also feel the pain and the sadness of being together and separated. You need to remain open-minded and be sure not to let yourself overwhelmed by the love affair of those two cowboys. So the story is really about an impossible love, and the regrets you can have afterwards. Some critics say it's the film of the year, but as for many Oscar worthy movies the average person won't be too impressed. But! The performance of Michelle Williams, the wife of one of the cowboys blew me out, after discovering her husbands secret she was in a trauma like state and was beautifully portrayed in that picture. I have to mention that all the actors made a stunning performance to bring their characters to life. Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger were perfect in every sense of the word, they are real cowboys, ruff rugged by the work and still managed to show their love towards each other (sometimes in a shocking way) in a very compassionate way that gave you shivers of realism. Bottom line, you might be sad at the end but will be content of the message that went through and how beautifully Ang Lee brought this picture to life.
I'll give it 8/10, it was a great movie, and you shouldn't miss it!
