Finally the gloomy winter is gone...i wish the economy will recover quickly from the gloom and spring forward to better days ahead...
i love seeing more sunshine now...and the day stretches longer till 7pm instead of the sun setting @ 4pm...the skies are more clear and weather is turning positive...no more below zero degree weather ! the trees are starting to green...can even feel the air is fresher...but with dat beautiful sight...of coz there is a downside...snow is melting...u get wet puddles and sloppy, muddy roads and pavements...but i hope the warm atlantic air keep coming and keep the temp high, i'm sure i can be in my PAPILLIO in no time...!
with the great weather, we finally have the chance to bathe our beloved car...who has not had one thru out winter...and of coz its a long wait at the car wash...
its a very different system here compared to back home...in SIN, we can have the "ah nehs" wash ur car @ the parking lot or go to the petrol station for manual wash...and they even wipe down dry for u! but here...u insert coins and select the type of wash u want....like high pressure soap, low pressure soap, foam scrub, high pressure rinse, etc etc...and every dollar gets u 1 min 15 secs...and we could insert coins to extend time till we are done...so when the times starts u have to grab the jet spray or scrub and race time...! its so fun!
steve will do the scrubbing and spraying and i'll b the shouting to him...50 secs ! 30 secs! 10 secs! the intensity feels like we're in a kinda game racing against time...!
we jus wanna get the job done using as little loonies as we can...
i realised i have never washed Pinky (name of family car) in sin b4 coz i hate perspiring...and with dat heat and washing car...no way...! but i get to experience washing our own car here and it really feels good after seeing the car spick and span...but sometimes i give up wiping the car dry when the wind chills gets too cold...anyway it dries up real quick...
there has been many "false alarm" that spring is REALLY here...coz when the weather seems to turn sunny and temp rising...the weather forecast would say we might have snowfall over the weekend...duh...
*fingers crossed*
