if you've kept up to date with my blog since i came to calgary, you would already know how crazy the weather here can get. from a wild +30C days in the summer, to spine-chilling -45C in the winter, the weather somehow always never ceases to surprise me. i've been here for over 600 days now, and i still can't wrap my mind around how crazy the weather here gets.
anyhoo, it's officially Spring season. and it's been warm enough this past week to hit the streets in summer dresses (people here wear summer dresses in 5C and now i can say i do/can too (: ). i just took a break from work (i.e. staring at the computer screen), and at the corner of my eye, i see white stuff falling outside.
and to think, it was just a barely 2 weeks ago i could do this:
oh! i would like to dedicate this post to the TITAN.
oh you could've been so great. (:
i drove brett a few weeks back to Okotoks, 30 mins south of Calgary, so that he could say his farewells and pick up the important remnants/things of his ride.
the insurance company has written it off, and given him $47,000 for it. it IS a 2007, and it was pretty mangled up around the grounded light post.
i'm not sure if he's decided but i last heard that he is going to get a Yamaha R1, or a Lotus Elise with the write-off money.
my friends have asked me to do the same with my Celica and get something buck wild too, but i think i already have gotten into enough trouble with the ride i have. anything faster, and i better be able to drive fast enough to 'scape the cops.
