A Friend told me to do this

I have a lot of free time, and my friend Jenny suggested that I start a blog. Actually, I started this blog nearly a year ago, but my access to it, facebook, youtube, etc. were blocked by our computer server. But I've found a way around it, so here I am.
In Shanghai. It's raining and cold and has rained for many days. The cold is a damp, wet, bone chilling kind and I am ready for some spring. In Shanghai, the weather bureau declares when the seasons change by calculating when the temperature is above, or below a certain point for a period of 5 days. So spring, when it's declared, is determined to have actually occurred 5 days prior. Jake wondered if they with "unspring Spring" because it's been so cold.
