learning republican ways...

had my tour around seattle and the city skyline's beautiful... :) although i was a trifle tired and fell asleep whilst liz was driving but the hot cuppa mocha woke me up totally... I would be too pleased to try to get about a little to work out but seems that it's no opportunity since well... things haven't exactly settled around here...

just got news from my prof, he said that my registeration stuff have been more or less solved and that's a relief cause it means that i don't have to do too much administrative stuff...

drinking mocha in one hand and egg nosh in the other... which contains wine of course... :)

kathryn's not supposed to give it to me since i am under 21 and the age for drinking here is 21 and above.. which sparked off alot of issues since people are allowed to vote at 18... and you kinda become an adult once you start to vote...

and kathryn's telling me to join the college republicans and go for their conferences which they sponsor for free... :) over the weekend... and just nice for myself since i don't have classes on friday which makes me very available for all that!

the campus is wonderously huge and beautiful... it has nice old building structures which i fell in love with when i was looking through pictures for the unis for sep... (that's why i chose seattle- the uptown in the city) they have this california fitness like huge building called the ima for students to use for free... i only have to walk about a couple of blocks down to exercise... although in the cold winter...

am getting used to the weather here... been looking around and asking about how i should layer my clothing and all... not so much for fashion but it seems that the girls here are intimidatingly stylish in their clothing... which they don't impose on others of course... as long as one's comfortable... :)

and i am! thank God i brought my boots along... should do the trick of looking uptown... :)

ah and i might try to join the international students' organisation in its activities.. fiuts...

they are really active and i love the sound of it... i had signed up for the shopping trip with fiuts
and should be looking forward to it in a week's time... suppose would be trying to join them for all the other activities... heard they dance alot and hang out skiing and stuff...

i went shopping today, well technically window shopping... :) and i was trying to resist myself since i wouldn't want to use the money i could well spend on making this trip more memorable... i mean... i would rather use the money for skiing or something...

ah yes, i visited the starbucks headquarters... probably for the whole world! hehe... was nice..

starbucks is around every corner... around every bend...

ah yes i finally got in touch with the politics here.. and i finally understood why it's so important to americans... i only wish the asians would be more outspoken to voice their own opinions as well...

don't mind me speaking american... i think it's probably going to last a long time... !!!
