This post is dedicated to my new jacket. Such an exciting topic eh? For me it is! I've finally got a new jacket after many...
many years of using the same one. My dad bought it for me as an early birthday gift since I'll be needing one when I'm in Japan. I looked through most of the stores in
Penticton and one in
Summerland and I wasn't able to find
any decent jacket. I found 1 I liked at
The Bay but it didn't seem warm enough. Then I thought I found an acceptable one at
Mark's Work Wearhouse but the sleeves were way too short. I had planned on going to
Kelowna to look for one at some stores there but on our way home from Summerland today, my dad asked if I wanted to take a look at
Canadian Tire. I said "sure" and we went inside. Immediately I found 2 jackets I liked - one more than the other. I chose one and tried it on and decided "I like this". I looked at the other one but it was
n't as appealing. I wore it around a bit to see if it was comfortable - it was great. So I decided to get it. Actually I made my dad take a picture of me so I could see it on myself. I thought it looked pretty good too. It's kinda long but whatever. The sleeves are long enough and and its warm. It's a down filled jacket so it should keep me pretty warm.
Here's a link to the beige version if you're interested for whatever reason. It's a North 49 jacket from the brand
World Famous of Sales. I don't think it's a very big name brand but it's a nice jacket so I'm not complaining.
Weather here is nice though. Today it was positive 1 but the snow stayed on the ground. I love the dry cold. I don't miss Vancouver's weather one bit. The picture above is near my place in Penticton and the one on the right is down mainstreet at the beginning of downtown. So this is a view of Penticton's downtown. Busy, isn't it?
This tasty looking treat is a shrimp dip my mom made to dip crackers in to. I'm not sure exactly how it's made but it has
guacamole in it. It's super tasty and I ended up eating quite a bit of it. She made a giant plate of it and it was gone in no-time. I'll have to get the recipe from her and bring it to Japan with me =D (if I can even make it).

See this is what is special about you, you're authentic and genuine in every way. I remember when I was a child, (and not to say you are this way) I didn't care what jacket I wore, where it was from or if it was compliant to what was being worn in paris or london. I'm so self-absorbed I primp my hair and do my make up every morning, I make sure my clothing is up to date for almost every season. I wish I could say that i've had this jacket for years, and that I haven't been consumed in this artificial lifestyle, I want to say fuck the latest trends, stop being perfect and just let the chips fall where they may. I think you're smarter than all of this which is why we're friends, and something I undoubtedly admire in you. <3
