Better Hot Than Cold

Yesterday saw me shopping like mad. Was in Castle Rock visiting shops; Geoffrey Beene, Coach, Ralph Lauren, Nine West, Gap, Borders, Eddie Bauer and the list goes. Didn't manage to take any photos cos were too busy shopping. Moreover, we already have a list assigned to us by the original Miss Shopaholic who were left at home breastfeeding. Heheh.. (Saty, beli barang dlm senarai kau adelah yg paling memeningkan..)

We were at Castle Rock from morning until the sun almost set which was around 5 pm. Dumped our shopping bags at Pearl's, had a simple dinner. Mak masak, so I felt right at home. Pearl makan tambah 3 kali. Wahaha...you'll turn from anorexic to obese in no time, babe!

After dinner, we simply went out and jalan-jalan at Pekan Golden*, had a stroll by Clear Creek* and went up Mount Zion*, saje-saje sebab boring dok rumah.













This morning on the other hand is a slow one for me. Outside is snowing and I just did laundry with Pearl at the Community Center next to her block*.










Later we're planning to go to Boulder and Denver. Think I should go get ready now. Them people are waiting for me.

Golden - Day 3, Updated Version

It's already the 3rd day we're here in Golden. The 1st day we arrived, we didn't do anything accept stretching ourselves out and recovering from the lengthy travel. Furthermore, it was already at night.

The 2nd day we didn't do much either, we just went to the Asian Market to accompany mom get some groceries. I don't normally do this back at home, but it's different here and I'm determined to see every nook and cranny of Golden and if possible, Denver.

We cooked dinner and had a bunch of Pearl's friend over to join us.

Today, day 3, we went to Colorado Mills to do some merchandise scouting. Didn't purchase anything though, cos we're planning to go to Castle Rock which, according to Pearl is a better shopping district than the Mills.

So, after a long walk around the mall, we just had coffee at Seattle's Best.











Then Pearl and I bought some English Toffee Apple from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. Yum, but lots of calory!

And oh, we also went to Belmar, jalan-jalan*,

popped in at Walmart and bought some bagels* and cream cheese for my dinner.

Entry From The Other Side

After a journey of more than 24 hours of flight time, transits and road travelling, (KUL-TPE 4 hours, TPE-LAX 12 hours and LAX-DEN 3 hours) we, my parents and I are finally here in Golden with Pearl.

We arrived last night, at around 8 pm and now it's only 4 am. I went to sleep at 11 pm, not so many hours ago, but I could only sleep for a few hours and am now wide awake and feeling hungry too. I guess my body is registering 6 pm Malaysia time and it's calling for DINNER! Arrghh..semakin gemuk la macam ini.

The weather here is like what I've dreamt of. Sangat jakun lah aku kan sebab first time tengok snow yang sangat cantek. The temperature registered -18 degrees Celcius. Vurrrrrry cold for a typical Malaysian like me.

Pearl's apartment is a pretty little thing. It's a 3 storey building, small and cosy and sort of lovely. Umm...eventhough Pearl has somewhat convert most of the absolute niceness into her standard 'sarang'.

I'm writing this with hope that I'll become sleepy and will finally be able to sleep. Tapi macam tak je. Furthermore, mom is also awake now and outside I'm hearing Papa turning on the TV. Poor Pearl got to be awake too to entertain us.

Hmm..I'm feeling real hungry now, will go look for some pizza from last night in the kitchen. Perhaps I'll make some hot choc too and sit by the window pane and watch the snow. Wahahaha...sangat over...
