Walking to school

It takes me roughly half an hour to walk to school. I can't wait 'till the snow goes away and I can bike. I guess I could already be biking, but it is all snowing all the time. The snow wouldn't be so bad, but there's no such thing as cold here anymore, so generally all the streets and walks are slushy and salty and dirty. This may sound rediculous, but I bought a shiny bike this fall, and I don't want to get it dirty. Okay, that definitely sounded rediculous, but that's the way everything sounds. So I keep walking. It makes me super-lean.
