Another Fine Day

To those of you who live in Seattle, which is all two of you who read this blog, I hope you are enjoying this beautiful Seattle weather!

On top of the weather, I’ve had such a marvelous day so far that I figured it would be a crime not to share!

Fist came the bus. I take the bus to school from the Park & Ride. I normally listen to music through ear buds while I’m on the bus, and today was no exception. However, during the ride I paused a song I didn’t like to go find another one, and was a little surprised to hear some music still going on. I listened a little bit closer and realized someone nearby was sort of mumbling along with whatever music they were listening to. I couldn’t quite place this impromptu performer until I heard a very distinct, slightly above conversational level “Hit me baby one more time!” to my right. I looked over to see a very happy looking girl, who appeared to have down syndrome, listening to what must have been an original iPod (I forgot how darn THICK those things were!) and bundled up in a ski jacket, ski gloves, beanie, sweat pants and boots (Mind you, while I was wearing jeans and a short-sleeve polo). It was such a marvelous sight I felt I simply had to share it with you.

Second fun point of the day, after BCOM class one of my classmates invited me to grab lunch with him. He is a server at a Vietnamese restaurant in the international district and gets 50% off. Which means that I got a 3 course Vietnamese FEAST for $6. Not bad! I’ve decided I like Vietnamese food. They use LOTS of green stuff, so even after gorging myself I felt perfectly fit and ready to walk to meet my bus afterwards.

Next fun part of the day is future. Tonight a friend is coming over, and we’re going to cook Enchiladas, and then we’re off to see In The Heights at 5th Avenue theater with another friend. I’m excited!

Enjoy this beautiful Seattle fall weather!
