PS I love you.......

Before coming to Vancouver, Canada I read the book "PS I love you" which is a romantic story. The book shows how a woman, whose husband died at the beggining of the story, tried to get over becoming a widow. Her husband left her several tasks so when he died, she could find a meaning of life. Every month she had to open a different letter which has a task for her and at the end of the letter she always found "PS I love you". I remember the first task, which was to buy a new lamp because when they were together at night they always fought about who would be the one to turn off the lights and almost all the time she was the one who had to do it, and after she'd turned off the lights she'd kick her finger toe with a small table near to the bed. So, with this new lamp she wouldn't have this problem anymore.

After she finished to open every letter her husband left her she started to feel better, and she found a new reason to live.

Speculation about taking the bus number 7

Last week I had to take bus number 7 and I knew I could take this bus on Howe St. but while I was walking on Burrard St. I saw a bus stop with a sign which had the buses' number you could take in there. So, I saw number 7 and I decided to wait for my bus. It was 2:40 p.m. and I had been waiting for almost 20 minutes and the bus never arrived. I started to think that maybe the bus was taking too long because something might happened to the driver or to the bus; probably the bus had a flat tire or the bus got broken but then I took a look to read the sign again and it said "Bus #7 Dunbar St. " and with small letters "only Peak Hours". It was obvious the bus would never arrived until 3:00 p.m. !!!!! So I walked toward another bus stop.
