Just not a long time ago did I finish my blog about the unforgettable snowy storm that I had on Monday night in November. I got another big
36 in Seattle again. But this time, it's not snow, but the wind and rain. I have 37 seen such a strong wind before even though I had
38 the typhoon every summer when I was still in my home country.
That
39 storm was so powerful that it
40 the whole big Seattle area out of
41 . 700,000 people had no electricity, and
42 13 people have died. Seattle is famous for its evergreen trees, but those trees made a big
43 this time. They broke down the power line above the ground,
44 the road and streets, and
45 the houses.
As the last storm was still
46 in my mind, I had another personal 47 about this new storm.
48 , this time, it was not good either. I was
49 to have my TOEFL test on the second day of the stormy night. Since the whole city had no electricity, my test had to be
50 off, and I had to prepare for another one later. It was my last test for the
51 , and I already made a plan for the time after the test, but now
52 is changed.
I guess sometimes, the way that the thing
53 is not always what you
54 . And what I can do now is to fit for it.
55 , we got a free hotel room from my husband's cousin and met my lovely nephew from San Francisco.
