Finally!!! Electricity!! It's back!! Now i can continue working on the blog.. It's not tht i've neglected blogging.. It's just tht unforeseemed circumstances has casued mi to not be able to blog.. It's a long story so im try to let you know as much as i can..

It all began on the next day Christina arrived.. Which was on the Thursday.. The weather forecast show tht there's gonna be a storm approaching the whole of the Seattle region.. And i mean by storm is a wind storm.. Not a snow storm neither it is a sand storm but a wind storm.. I was quite taken aback when i saw the speed of the winds.. It's gonna be like 60mph(miles per hour) or in another words, 100km/hr..

If you're driving a car, tht'll be speeding.. The wind might also increased all the way to like 120km/hr or so.. It's really amazing.. But i thought it's not gonna affect us.. Then we saw like the news about trees falling down, crushing cars and houses.. I remembered on Friday, there were like 3 different reports on trees crushing school buses!! Wad are the odds of tht!! 3 different buses at 3 different locations!! Luckily nobody was hurt..

There were also reports of power outages in many areas.. There were like 500,000 ppl without power and we were quite thankful tht we had.. It was Friday then.. Then we happily went to our warm bed and slept.. In the middle of the night, Christina wanted to go to the bathroom and she was like making so much noise waking mi up and saying tht she cant seem to get the lights to work and it was totally pitch dark.. So i reluctantly got up and realised we indeed have lost our power.. I wasnt really thinking much about it so we went back to bed soon after..

The next morning, it was still alright.. But Grandma cant take it so she went to one of my aunt's house and Chris and mi went to a party with mom and Uncle Steve.. It was a pretty nice party.. Got like a American Idol kinda thing.. Though seriously, they all sucked.. lol..

Then in order to prevent going home to our cold torture chamber, we decided to go watch a movie.. And i guess most of you guys might have guessed wad it is... Yes, Eragon... It're pretty nice although the movie was too fast paced.. Like rushing through the whole story..

We decided to buy a gas-powered firewood and bring it home.. Thinking tht it might help warming up the place.. So Uncle Steve worked through the night to set it up and we all went to bed.. Today when we woke up, it was totally freezing... All of us couldn't stand it so we decided to all flee to our aunt's place.. And it was alot of fun over there.. They have this HUGE trampoline where we all jus kept jumping around.. Trying to do flips and stuff.. Landed on my face a few times.. whahah.. Then we went hiking into the woods behiind their house.. Made our way to the lttle river.. All the way, Christina was like whining and kept suggesting turning back.. But in the end we made it.. And i can tell you.. The wood's really like tough.. You gotta like bash your way through the woods and climb down slopes..

I really enjoyed myself at my aunt's place.. And my 3 cousins are really active and fun to hang out with.. So later at night we tried calling the house and the voicemail was back pn.. Indicating tht the power's back in our place.. I was kinda disappointed though.. Thought we can stay at my aunt's so i can like play all day long with them.. lol..

So now's about 1230am and i think im gonna slp soon.. My ear's are burning for some reason and neck is aching.. I think im getting old.. OK... So i'll talk to you guys soon!! Nighty.., And I love you all!!
