An unfortunate day
Howdy folks.. havent blgged in awhile.. I'm now in Vancouver BC studyig in Emily carr.... and the ice and snow is finally melting.. TO begin with ice and snow is rare here and this has been teh heaviest in 40 years!!!
Okok.. I'd like to upload photos but havent really done my editing so it'll take time...
Before that I'd like to talk about our unfortunate day....
The morning started with us trying and un familiar round to school.. Well it was essentially the same route ome but on the other side so we thought why not...
Turns out we had to walk 2 streets past several blocks just to navigate our way to the right bus stop (god knows why the busses dont follow the same way) and we were finally on our way.,
Coming home it started to rain.. it was about 5? but was already pitched black.
So here we were in the rain and we thought hey.. lets go to the dollar store on the way back to get some cups and tupper ware for food packing etc....
the bus system works here by timing. meaning... you pay for the ticket ($2.5 CAD) and u can board any bus or train for the next 1.5- 2 hours.
Normally we'd have an hour to spare by the time we're home so we could drop by the store and get something and simply hop back on....
Today we waited forever and when the bus came it was jam packed..
Or ticket lasted till 648pm and by 530 we thought. hey... forget about the tupper ware... we;re starving and I need to cook... But at 545 it was pretty near our place already so we though.. hey! An hour to go.. why not?. So we conveniently mised our own bus stop at 33rd ave and moved on to 45th ave for our stuff... and as we got closer i checked the time again...
545... pleanty of time....
Wait.... 545??....
OMG..... my watch's dail was out so the time stop ticking... must have been hooked onto my coat in the crowd... Ok... still not so bad.. I whip out my phone and its GASP... 630!!!... 18 Mins to go before our ticket expires.
We run across the street and wait....
18 minutes go by and we think.. what the heck... since the dollar store on 45th was closed and the bigger store is on 47th we'd just walk down to get our stuff since we had to pay anyway...
so we walk down 2 streets just to see the bus come in fornt of our faces in front of the dollar store and whoppee!! we hope on.. 648 exactly!....
Since we're hungry who care... suddenly there was an announcement " this is the last stop.. the bus will terminate at 41st to the garage....
everyone got off and now we're on 43rd ave.... ridiculous..
we walked up 2 streets to end up down 2 streets...
We've had enough.. we're WALKING HOME...
so finally dinner was done and all was well and i go.. where is my phone?!!
GOD.. this is worrying.... yiz tries to call me and we search the whole living room... suddenly we hear a vibration....
*bzzzzzz...bzzzzzzzz..*
it was neear the sofa... we literally flipped everything apart and went what the hell? why cant we find it... Turns out.. it's on my desk in my room (which shares the wall to my living room).. and we could hear the vibrations from tere.. lol...
powerful hearing? or thin walls.. lol...
will update on life here in BC!
nights!
