SEP Part II...

Yo yo~!!! Shall continue blogging abt my [SEP] experience so far... Gotta blog regularly or else the backlog will be simply impossible to clear...

Day 4 (Breakfast, lunch):

SEP (27) SEP (29)

Aiya, I know, I know... I should take the contents of what I had for lunch instead of the 'awesome' packaging... But I was simply too hungry and I wanted to attack my sub ASAP... Plus, I think I was still a little in awe over the mall tt I was currently in @ tt pt in time... My friends jio-ed me to [MetroTown] and according to them, tt's like the biggest mall in the whole of [British Columbia]... And boy does it live up to its name... It's simply HUGE!!! It's like [VivoCity] + [Jurong Point] + half of [Ion Orchard] can... Totally wow... X_X

Here's a little bit of the awesome mall...

SEP (30) SEP (31)

SEP (32) CUTE TTM!!! GAHHHHH~!!! ^_^

SEP (33) This is self-explanatory... Cheap, cheap!!!

Day 5 (breakfast, lunch, dinner):

SEP (34)

SEP (36) SEP (35) The donuts are simply nice!!! But till now, I haven't gone back for 2nds as I've been busy trying other stuff... Shall try other type of donuts real soon!!!

SEP (38) Okay, this is like the closest to [Chinese] tt I can get last wk... And when I 1st tried the noodles and the soup, it reminds me of what my grams would cook for me once in a while... And it's kinda make me miss home... Awww...

Of course, towards the mid of the meal, my gawd... The mushrooms are totally TASTELESS I TELL YOU... So I've effectively been tasting only noodles, soup, more noodles and more soup to the pt tt it's making me feel like puking... UGH~...

Day 6 (Breakfast, lunch/dinner):

SEP (39) SEP (48)

As I've missed orientation and [Day 6] was my free day, I've decided to join the campus tour tt's held on a daily basis @ 1100 hrs & 1400 hrs... I chose the 1100 hrs slot so tt after the tour, I can nua -, I mean, chiong my assignments... =P

Snippets of my sch!!!

SEP (42) SEP (41) SEP (40) SEP (46) SEP (45)

SEP (47) It's been so cold tt the pond actually froze and ppl were seen playing ice hockey on it... Wow!!!

SEP (44) The sci labs... Haha... I find this intriguing... It's like the students are some experimental mice doing experiments and we're all observing them... LOL!!!

SEP (43) This is the biggest LT in [SFU]... Machiam like [OmniTheater] like tt... Haha... =D

Day 7 (Breakfast, lunch):

SEP (53)

SEP (51) OMG... I had [Meatball Marinara] and it's considered as a [Classic] sub, unlike in [SG], where it's under [Premium]... This means tt it's cheaper... Plus, the meatball are tastier too!!! HAHA!!!

This is the day classes are canceled because IT'S SNOWING!!!

SEP (50) SEP (49)

For the 1st time ever, I'm not seeing artificial snow from [SnowCity], but real snow tt fell from the top of the sky and coating everything in a sheet of white... It's a nice sight... Of course, now tt I've actually seen snow, I don't need to see it again le... HAHA... Yep, I want back my warm [SG] weather le... Heke... XD

Cam-whoring in winter wear is fun!!!

Me (191) Me (190) Me (188)

Day 8 (Breakfast, dinner):

SEP (55)

SEP (57) I think this is my 2nd worse meal ever... The tomato sauce is SOUR TTM!!! But for the sake of filling my stomach and not waste my $$$, I finished it all up... BLEAH... @_@

Day 9 (Breakfast, dinner):

SEP (59) SEP (60)

Day 10 (Breakfast, lunch, dinner):

SEP (61)

SEP (74) Apple & cinnamon crepe!!! *Drools*

SEP (99) Yes, I had burger again... Unlike yesterday, which I had [Beef Burger] & fries, I chose [Bacon Cheeseburger] again cause it has cheese and bacon on top of a beef patty... What else can I say??? The beef is really yummy!!! HAHA...

Okay, [Day 10] was an awesome day... I managed to get on the [Vancouver City Highlight] tour @ the last min as I was hanging around with my friends who're going and it seems like there're some no-shows, so I took over their place... It's a total eye-opener!!!

SEP (62) Chinatown!!!

On the way to [Stanley Park]...

SEP (66) SEP (65) SEP (64) SEP (63)

And while @ [Stanley Park], we took a 15 mins break and it's time for some major photo-taking...

SEP (67) Melvin Me and Melvin Me and Friends (125) Me (194) Me (193) Me (192)

Our next stop is @ [Grandville Island], which is really a huge town of shops... We were only given like 90 mins to wander around... Me and my friends didn't explore much cause we were busy looking for lunch... But the place where we were walking in - [The Public Market] is amazing...

SEP (69) SEP (68)

SEP (71) A very busy market indeed...

SEP (70) They have pastries!!! But they're freaking ex... $30 for 2 of those tarts, I think... WTH?! -_-"'

SEP (76) Interesting-shaped veg... But I've no idea what it is...

SEP (75) SEP (73) SEP (72)

Me (195) And I finally managed to get a pic with the sch bus tt's driving us around... It's the [Yellow Magic Sch Bus]!!! ROFLMAO!!! =P

SEP (82) We were told these are the props used for by the [1st Nations] whenever they're organizing something similar to a pot luck... Those aren't boat, mind you... They're actually used to place food... Heh... Imagine the amt of food tt'll be served!!! Totally suitable for ppl who have black holes as their stomachs... =P

SEP (86) SEP (87) NICE... XD

Well, I guess tt concludes the awesome [Sat] tt I had...

Day 11 (Breakfast, dinner):

SEP (100)

SEP (101) [Triple Cheese] pizza!!! I thought I wouldn't see such a thing... HAHA... And after having this, I didn't feel full... So I ended up having an [Apple Triangle], something I had back on [Day 6]...

Gawd, I felt sinful after tt for eating too much... *SOBS*

Oh, and I did some mandatory shopping as well... Decided to pick up a laundry basket & detergent cause I've to do the laundry... Can't have all the clothes not wash for the entire 4 mths tt I'm here what... GROSS!!!

It turns out tt most of the shops are closed on [Sun], except the supermarket... So I managed to grab the very impt detergent to wash my clothes with... And guess what else did I stumble upon???

SEP (102) Converting back to SGD, giving today's rate, it's approx. $7.80... CHEAP ISN'T IT??? ROFLMAO... [SH], jealous much??? =P

Haha... O-k-a-y... I shall stop here... Part III will be out next wk... Heke... =D
