Chase rainbows: when someone tries to do something that they will not achieve I think she's chasing rainbows if she thinks she can get into Oxford with her bad grades.

Calm before the storm: the quiet, peaceful period before a moment of great activity or mayhem. The in-laws were about to arrive with their kids so she sat on the sofa with a cup of coffee enjoying the calm before the storm.

Break the ice: to say or do something to make someone feel relaxed or at ease in a social setting. He offered to get her a drink to help break the ice.

Be snowed under: to have so much to do that you are having trouble doing it all. I'm snowed under at work right now because two of my colleagues are on holiday.  

Be a breeze: to be very easy to do. Our English exam was a breeze. I'm sure I'll get top marks.  

As right as rain: to feel fine and healthy. Don't worry about me, I'm as right as rain after my knee operation.
