First of all.....

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Gotta wish my good buddy Alvin Aw Boon Chee a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY too!! (Sorry I couldn't be there for your birthday this year..) Wish ya all the best for all your endeavours!!

Today's been a fruitful day.. Once again, it snowed in the morning.. Grandma had to scrap off all the snow on her car.. Today's fruitful cause I managed to find out some stuff bout the BCC(Bellevue Community College) which is where I'll be going..

Pretty proud of myself too!! Made my way there by myself.. Taking the bus on my own.. Below is the ticket I got.. I costs bout $1.25(US) to get to the sch which is not far away.. Kinda ex.. Anyway here is the ticket i got.. So orh biang..Colour's kinda nice but Singapore's ticket is much nicer..lol.. Wanted to take pics of bus.. But too many ppl in it..



Then I reached BCC.. First up, i went to meet this lady.. She was out at a meeting and will be back at bout 1pm..(I was there at 1145am) So, with nothing to do and all the bustling students around, I had some fish and chips in the cafeteria then i jus walked around the school taking some pictures.. There was this cool structure that i saw and the other photo is when I'm waiting for bus on the way home..





As I was walking home, I took a pic of a funky tree of my neighbours.. Here you go!!



Also made a video of the leaves in the backyard.. Kinda pretty but messy at the same time..

I was told by Boon Jeow aka BJ aka 'blow job' that my blog's too wordy and I should talk less and put more ictures.. So here I go!! Gimme your comments K?

I woke up with the area covered with SNOW!! (this time I'm right!)





Then went to TOPS (grocery store).. Very foggy.. Some pictures..







In the afternoon, went down to YMCA again for some work out.. Came home, Granny baked a Pumpkin Pie!! Cause I told her I haven had one before.. So sweet of her.. Love her lots!! Doesn't it look delicious?



Made myself a snack before I went down to the library.. Vanilla Ice-cream with M&Ms and chocolate sauce.. lol.. Was at library for bout an hour reading, then walked back again.. By the time i reach home, my nose was totally numb and cold.. Grandma touched my nose to see if it's real cold anot.. lol.. Funny..



Dun forget to check out Slashie's shrine.. NEW update!! You dun wanna miss it!! Very funny.. Too boh liao la.. lol..

Sunday, October 29, 2006 . 9:50 PM

Jus wanna post a pic of myself jus before i go to take my shower.. Find tht this picture's not bad.. After this I will be retiring into my room and reading my book.. So you ppl out there who miss mi, which i bet you do, you can perhaps save this pic and put it in your Desktop or something? Whaha.. Jus kidding.. Nighty everyone!! God bless and I love you all!!

Today's been quite an interesting day.. The daylight saving time's over.. So now, we gotta change all our clocks by an hour backwards.. If you wanna calculate the time over here.. Just minus 4 hours(not 3 anymore)and jus change the pm to am and vice versa..

Anyway.. I woke up at bout 7 am.. Which is actually 6am.. Didnt really go online with anyone.. I guess everyone was kinda busy.. Said hi to KL.. But no reply.. Think must be playing game or something.. Nvm.. So i spent the morning doing the previous post and went to the 1030 mass.. Here are some pics of the church..



There's this little cool section in the church too.. Just for this Halloween section.. Pretty cool.. Take a look at this..





Then we went down to Danny's to have breakfast.. Kinda nice.. American food with american serving.. Can't really finsh all of it though..



Then we came home and something interesting happened!! Guess wad!! Suddenly it jus started SNOWING!! At first I thought it was jus rain.. But it was pretty loud and the floor started to turn white.. Then I realised it's actually hail.. Kinda like little ice-cubes falling from the sky.. Pretty cool.. Are some pics.. And a video too..







Hail in Seattle!!

Later in the evening, mom wanted to go to the Ranch market.. Sort of an Asian market.. A Super Huge NTUC.. lol.. The outside looks so 'chi na' though.. Here you go..




All the stuff that we bought..

Then now finally at home and in our comfort zone, we decided to take another pic of Slashie.. hehe.. I bet he hates mi..

Dear all.. Sorry for not posting yesterday.. Was super sleepy when i got home.. Wanted to type a post saying tht today I'll do it.. But the toopid website keeps having error.. So here you go..
It was quite a busy day.. We only had plan to visit David at his workplace and have dinner at bout 7pm.. That's when he knocked off.. Meanwhile, we left a little earlier so tht Uncle Steve can bring mi for some sightseeing.. These following are some pictures and some videos.. Picture paints a thousand words.. So I'll jus explain a little as we go along..

This pic is the ever famous Space Needle.. Kinda like our changi airport tower yeah?



A pic of Downtown Seattle..



This is where my mom works currently.. In downtown too..



Their National Library.. Which is HUGE!!



The public market.. Which is so crowded and has a beautiful view.. (watch video)




Picture of Mi, Mummy and Grandma..

Nice view of Public Market..

Next, we went to the dog park.. All dogs are supposed to be on lease over here.. Only in the dog park are they allowed to run free..A whole bunch or dogs running around and playing with each other.. So cute.. There was also this small black puupy which jumped up and sat on my lap.. I think that dog likes mi.. Lol.. Picture kinda blur.. Mom took it.. Video available too!!



Dog Park video..

We also went across this floating bridge.. Kinda cool.. Here are some pics..





The we arrived at Value Village!! The place with David works at.. OMG!! All the stuff here damn cheap.. Kinda like a second-hand store.. Sells lots of clothes.. I bought this sweatshirt for like only 6.99 dollars!!(US) So damn cheap!! Anyway, now i know where to get good deals in America, next time when you guys are here perhaps i can drive you down!! Furthermore.. David gave us a 50% discount!! How cool is tht!! By the way, David's Uncle Steve's son.. In case you didnt know..





Last but not least, we went down to this Korean place to have dinner.. Here are some pics of the food..

When I got back from a little 'tour' around the area, I got to talk to KL on the phone for awhile.. Boy!! Doesn't his voice makes mi all hyped up and sooooo happy.. I really miss him and all the others soooo much.. He promised to go online at night.. You guys hear it!! His promise on National blog.. lol.. I bet he'll keep his promise.. Will be looking forward to wake up and goin online!! Love you all to bits!!!
Come to think of it.. It's almost a week now.. Almost a week since I hang out with all my friends, almost a week since I left Singapore, almost a week since I had 'Mee Pok'.. haha.. So many thing I miss for like a week.. Most of all is the fact tht I haven't got a chance to see you guys for a week..

Ok.. Back to business.. Today's a pretty fruitfull day.. I woke up at 8 ++(the lastest i got up so far..) and was alone at home again.. Grandma went for her dentist appt.. Made myself a sandwich and went online with my singie friends.. Sam said he was busy.. Watch out!! haha.. Anyway I talked to Royston till like i think 3am in Singapore and he helped mi alot!! So kind of him to let mi upload pics into his account.. And resized the pics for mi.. Now you can view the full picture without the hassle of scrolling.. Haha.. Another Blog Master!! Or should I say Net Master!! Your servant bows to your supremacy.. whahhaha..

Then I walked down to the library alone this time.. (did i mention i went to the grocery store with Grandma.. AGAIN!!).. Spent bout 1 and a half hour reading up on the Washington drivers guide.. Found out that I dun need a Social Security No. (equivalent to our I.C. no.) to get a driving liscense.. So Happy!!.. On the way to the library, there was this funky house..

Chill out!!

Wednesday, October 25, 2006 . 8:23 PM

Anyway, I just found out during dinner that perhaps I can start sch in Jan instead or Mar.. Cause we found out tht the fees are not tht high as we thought.. Thought it was 4000++ but I think it's only 2000++.. That's good news for mi.. Dunno how I'm goin to cope but at least it beats staying at home and rot.. lol.. Next time I'll try to remember to take pictures of my dinner and the food here.. Quite different from all the 'cha kuay tiao' tht we usually have.. lol..

Also tried to upload videos in the misc area.. But video turn out laggy and no sounds.. Beats the purpose eh?? Nvm.. If you guys know of any website or application of anything to solve the problem, be sure to let mi know!! I love you all!! Kenneth, Out!
Ok.. Today's Wednesday and it's pretty gloomy in the morning.. Let's see.. This morning I woke up and got online with some of my friends.. JS was kind enough to help mi get a tag board.. Thanks!! But now smart enough to get mi a new skin for my blog.. LOL.. Jus kidding.. So Samuel, the blog master, came to my rescue.. It must have took him like an hour or so to get it right.. And he taught mi lots of stuff bout blog.. As you can see, now the blog is BEAUTIFUL.. All thanks to the Master Sam!! May the force be with you!!

This morning I've got quite a number of things to do.. First up, I went with Grandma to YMCA.. Yeah.. Young Men Christian Association.. I know the songs must be in your mind now.. whahha.. Anyway, she's goin there to have her elderly exercise class.. It's on every mon,wed and fri.. So I tagged along and did some gym there.. Ran a little, some weights, soon it's time to go home.. Btw, you know the locker room you see in TV?? It's exactly the same.. Didn't go to the showering area though.. Too bad I cant take some pictures.. LOL.. I bet all the gals wanna see some 'stuff'.. Anyway the interesting thing bout the locker room is tht they have this swimsuit dryer.. So cool.. you jus put your trunks into it and it spins all the water out.. Some nice pics from the carpark.. This tree is real pretty..

Then we head to the grocery store and got some lunch.. Chinese food.. LOL.. Fried noodles with orange chicken or something.. We drove home with the food and had our lunch at home.. Oh ya!! Forgot to take a pic.. lol.. Anyway it was really nice except tht the noodles are abit too oily..

The next 'HUGE' thing tht I've done today is taking out the trash!! hahah.. I becoming more and more auntie... Grandma says we need to empty all the trash in the house and drag the bins outside cause the trashman comes every Thursday to collect trash.. It's funny.. They've got 3 different bins.. I'll show it to you and explain their purposes..

This was where the bins started out.. In the backyard.. The grey one on the left is used for normal trash, the blue one is the recycle bin.. Where all the bottles, papers and plastic bags go into.. The green one is for grasses and plants.. They've got a guy coming fortnightly to mow the lawn.. So the grass goes into it..

Then I helpt Grandma to push the trash outside as you can see.. All gotta be in this order and this far apart.. Grandma quite particular.. lol.. So trashman!! Come and get it!!

Just found out during dinner that maybe I can go to school in Jan after all!! I'm so happy to hear that!! Dunno how I'm gonna cope but at least it beats staying at home everyday.. Will try to remember to take pictures of my dinners.. Quite a bit of difference from the usual 'cha kuay tiao' tht I use to eat.. hahha.. Love you guys!!
