Miss Kasper and I went to lunch,

as a local of the neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen, she led me walked along 10th Ave,

we walked deep into "5 brothers" grocery shop and kept marching,

"trust me"   "i'll"
at the very end of the aisle, a small window showed up with shining green little lights bulbs around,

"here-"

The Taco was REALLY GOOD, so was the corn-pancake.

I love the spices of Mexican food, thus i tried all the different kinda pepper and sauce.

especially the hottest one - jalapeno

Today's project is to build my first snowman.

It snowed a lot a few days ago, when i walked by Columbia, just realized that i haven't built any snowman

so i was thinking, before the snow melts completely, i should have my first snowman.

We went to the park across the street, and we decided to do a small guy-

who can sit one the bench

"we only need 3 snow balls"

HERE HE IS!

Miss Kasper picked up the little fruits for his eyes and mouth,

i got a stick, broke it into two as his arms, and a beautiful branch of leaves as his hat.

When we left, the little guy sat on the bench with the sun in the winter,

he looked so little that i was not sure how he would handle this new world,

God spent 7 days to create the world, and we might spent 7 minutes to create him

on the way back to the office, we decided to name him Mr. Jalapeno-

the hottest chilly pepper for a icy snow man

I walked by the park later that day in the night,

the park is still open so i went in,

Mr. Jalapeno was gone, i could only pick up one of his eyes and his hat, then put them in my pocket.

beautiful things, or even ugly things (Mr. Jalapeno was beautiful to me but might be ugly to others...)

will fade away equally at the end whether in a short time or after a long time

the laughters, sun, the temperature and weight of Mr. Jalapeno (when i hold him) are still real to me,

but all have disappeared, vapored in the air..

made me even wonder, the memories that i carry with, might just vapored from the earth someday

and what does that exactly mean to me?

Good day and good night! Mr. Jalapeno!! I've loved you as my first snowman!!

(i shall say it before the feeling vapors too...)

This is the last scene that i saw  Mr. Jalapeno.
