let it snow...

it's snowing in denver! again. it gets annoying, and it's kindof the first time i got caught in snow as a driver (i've always been just a passenger so far at my work in denver).

then my rental car kindof looks like this (it's not the actual car but it's a sample one):

so i spend 15 min alternating between getting out to scrape ice off the windshield and getting back in to squirt windshield liquid (hopefully with antifreeze) and warm my feet up. by the end of it i was quite annoyed and tried driving off before the whole thing melts off, and i realised my visibility was too low for me to drive safely so i parked again and did somemore of the scraping and melting. so annoying omg. remind me never to live in a cold place like this, snow just complicates everything!

can you imagine, living a normal life in a normal city is already tough enough, now you have to deal with cold weather, low visibility, possibility of frostbrite and snow and ice and spending 15min heating up your car engine every time you want to go somewhere for half the year??!! what a waste of my life, and it's so dangerous to be driving around with snow and ice everywhere! you can skid! another car can skid! you cannot see easily when people are running across the road in the middle of the night!

anyhow i found icicles on the car too, something like this. who would have thought?!

on a good note, we did find ourselves some canadian geese hanging around despite the snow. they somehow can dig grass up under the snow, so cool right.

also, i've just been complimented on my nice beige coat (courtesy of my mum, who sent it over alllll the way from singapore last december! thanks mummy! ^^) twice in two days! so yesterday someone complimented on my coat when i was in the elevator at my client's place, and she asked me where i got it. i replied my mum bought it for me so i'm not sure haha.

then today someone else complimented on my coat when i was in the hotel elevator! she asked if she could touch it, seems like the coat had some texture to it, and i said sure! she touched it and was amazed by the texture of it hahaha.

 both of them are white females around 30s or 40s. seems like they've got good taste haha. i wonder why people suddenly started noticing/complimenting the coat only now, when i've been wearing it since december...maybe they've gotten tired of everyone else's black coats by now so my coat stands out to them hee. and i really like the coat myself too, it's classy and beautiful. my mum has great taste in fashion!
