Woke up to see SNOW FOR THE FIRST TIME OF MY LIFE! It was awesome i tell u. Snow covering the entire forest, backyard and frontyard totally. Snow on the pine trees. Snow on the driveway and the roads. I dashed out without properly wearing insulation against the cold as i was too excited. Wore my boots and a coupla shirts. I picked up snow and it really was like shaved ice. Made snowballs and walked around the backyard to explore the snow covered forest and to check out the unfinished wooden shed uncle richard was attempting to make. Then i realised i got locked out of the house and my hands were totally numb. My fingers had no feeling...hahaha so i rang the doorbell and everyone thought i was the postman or sth. Took a coupla photos. Made loads of snowballs.
Got a major accident at the 520 bridge connecting downtown Seattle to Overlake due to the snow and slush. Auntie eng had no school due to the snow. It is fascinating to experience first hand how snow can affect the everyday lives of the locals here. Travelled to Redmond town centre again with auntie eng and lunched there at Desert Fire! Awesome mexican south american food. I ate chimichangas, enchiladas and tacos dipped in authentic spicy salsa sauce for 12 bucks! Went shopping by myself. Bought a couple of american outfitters shirts and a hoodie and a pair of white jeans. Bought a Smith ski mask and a beanie too from REI. Saw Victoria's secret and the salesgirls were damn pretty. Saw a goldclass cinema at the town square too. Borders sold quite a number of adult novels and some of them are about gays and lesbians.
Tiring day of shopping and the cold was getting unbearable.
