I am 32 today!

It was my birthday. I enjoyed very much being a cow on my birthday. It was Jonathan's party. It's me and Jonathan. He got me a big birthday cake and huge teddy bear for me. He even called me in the morning to say Happy Birthday like my mom does. He is my great brother!!

On October 27, suddenly someone called 20 mins before the midnight saying I have only 20 mins until my 32nd birthday and also saying she is coming to my house right now!! So, it's me in the middle with a hat and gloves which Mariko gave me for my birthday. Chris, Hide, Ikuya, Mayu, Mariko and me. Thank you all for coming. It was fun!!

My new monkey shower sponge

This is my new shower sponge. I bought it at the Shaw's supermarket yesterday. It was $2.99. I was looking for a bottle of body wash because I was running out of it. I could not find the body wash I usually use but I found her on the top of the shelf instead. I am very happy with my new shower sponge and enjoying looking at it. I even go to the bathroom/showerroom just to look at her. Don't you sometimes find stuff in the store..something you think nobody really even dare to touch or buy and then makes you wonder where exactly those items go if absolutely nobody buys them. Will you buy it with the price of $2.99 if you need a shower sponge today? Sometimes we do have bad moments in our lives. This little new monkey sponge makes me forget about bad things for seconds and makes me happy and smile.

Foliage

I went back to New Hampshire to see foliage. This time with my friend, Jessica. Not with Chris. It is always nice to have a short trip with a girlfriend but not with a guys...sometimes. Girls do see and feel about things in a different way sometimes.

This is Jessica and me at the Flume Gorge.

Later that evening on the first day...we joined a "MOOSE Watching Tour"!!! This is a real moose's foot. We successfully could see 6(?) moose that night. The guys from the tour find the place moose comes in and out, stop the bus and put the light out. At the last try of finding moose, we could see them there for the longest time. We even went out of the small tour bus and saw moose very closely. We were supposed to be very quiet but I screamed every time I saw the different moose. It was too dark to be able to take pictures of moose but I videotaped them. The funny thing was that one car was following the tour bus because people in the car I guess knew they can cheat and see moose without paying. Well, they saw moose too. Unnn, I will do that next time I guess.

We were at the top of Mount Washington. We drove up there. Well I paid to do this but actually this was the very original reason I wanted to go to New Hampshire. They give me a bumper sticker says "This car climied Mount Washington." This sticker is kinda famous? popular? Many people know this bumper stickers here in New England. Right? I was not expected to drive up all the way like this in the picture. I thought just a top of a mountain where I can see foliage much better. Actually there were no trees. It is too high. It was great on the way though. I had to stop my car so many time. We were in a world of YELLOW and ORANGE.
