Qing Ke... XD

[Spring] has finally arrived and the weather is finally getting warmer!!! Even the sun is taking forever to set lor... It now sets @ 8 pm can... Super love it man!!! Haha... *Megawatt grin* XD

Anyway, crazy stuff still happens... Like last [Mon], it actually snowed for like half a day!!! And I heard tt there was like hail on [Wed]... It seems like tt strange event happened when I was in my lec, which was a real pity cause I've never seen hail before...

*Tries to imagine bouncy small ice balls falling from the sky and bouncing on the ground but failing miserably*

SEP (285) SEP (284)

Sunny day, but not hot @ all!!! Awesome!!! =D

Well, the other day I was mourning tt I've wayyyyy too much credit on my meal plan card and tt it's impossible for me to spend all the credit by the 26th on my own... So...

I ended up treating 4 of my friends to a 3-course meal @ [The Dining Hall]... $21/person is no biggie...

Jealous much, anyone??? WAHAHAHAHAHA... =P

SEP (288) FINE DINING!!! i should've paid more attention to tt workshop tt [Biz Career Services] organized... -_-"'

But since it's with friends, heck it la!!! LOL!!! =)

The menu...

SEP (286) SEP (287)

SEP (289) Appetizer...

SEP (290) Main course - [Beef Wellington]...

SEP (291) The person preparing my dessert... Ooohhh... Fire!!! XD

SEP (292) Desserts... Shiokness TTM!!!

Camwhore time!!! Yayyyyy~!!! ^_^

Me (238) Me (239)

Me (240) Trying to zi pai myself looking @ my dessert and failing...

Me (242) Heh, with some help from friends, it's perfect!!!

After the dinner, I accompanied my friends to the sch's pub cause they wanted to get 1 dude drunk before playing poker so tt he won't go on his usual winning streak... Tt plan didn't work out in the end as he broke his winning record and I lost like crap...

Maybe I should stop playing poker after all... ~_~

Me (243) Me with my [Cosmopolitan Martini]... Just when the angle's good, the lighting suck... Zzz... Dotzzz... -_-"'

The martini doesn't really taste tt awesome... Like tt pink-ish antibiotic tt I was forced to take back then when I fell sick as a kid... Ugh...

Nvm... I shall try the [Chocolate Martini] the next time... *Grins* =D

Speeding Time Up Or Slowing It Down???

Yesterday was my free day and I've set my mind on camping in the com lab (as usual) to catch a movie, stalk a few friends and play [RC]... Sounds like an awesome plan to kill the time doing everything except studying...

However, I was so, so, so, so, SO wrong!!! -_-"'

Time was moving damn slow la... By the time I completed my movie and my [FB] routine, it was only 12.30 pm or so...

I didn't wanna watch another movie as it's no fun movie marathon-ing alone...

Back in [SG], it's like 3 am, so not a single soul is online and available for me to bug... =\

I can't remember exactly what I did in front of the com after tt, but I ended up walking around aimlessly around the campus and hoped tt I could find some nice scenery to cam whore with...

It got sunny sometime around 2.30 pm, but the weather is still too chilly for me to stand outside for too long to take much pics...

Not to mention tt I was in my oversized jacket AND MY ZI PAI-ING SKILLS ISN'T EVEN ON PAR WITH [SH] LA...

So much for being inspired to camwhore after seeing all the kirei kirei pics tt [K] took during [MFW2011] as well as what [Yutaki] is capable of achieving... *Depressed*

So before I headed to grab Chinese for dinner, I decided to stop by [OOC] and checked tt club out with my excuse of checking out their resource lib...

Once I'm there, I found tt the place is really a good hiding place and maybe, just maybe, I don't have to be so discreet...

Then again, if i let my guard down now (a form of change), I've to build up my guard all over when I'm back in [SG] (more change)... Frustrating TTM~!!! X_X

Anyway, my eyes landed on this novel - [Rainbow Boys]... And after reading the 1st 10 chapters or so, it's totally an awesome read... I mean, I've always read normal romance novels tt's always revolving around straight couples in the supernatural context, but this... This I can totally relate to...

I'm finally reading my 1st queer novel... ^_^

LOL... Anyway, the story is abt being queer, coming out, falling love & surviving thru sch... And the way it's written... It sorta mirrors some of the thoughts tt's going thru my mind every now and then...

I heard tt apart from the book tt I'm reading now, the story continues in another 2 more books... OMG LA... With so little time left in [Canada], I can only cross my fingers and hope tt the books exist somewhere in [SG]... *Prays hard*

A Foot Away From Zi Nan-ness...

Ha!!! A couple of days ago, I decided to hide in the library & watch [Inception]... It's really an interesting show with the whole dream within a dream concept and tt ideas when implanted in another's mind, are like viruses tt'll slowly grow and spread...

Just like when I heard [Rebecca Black]'s [Friday] again on [Singapore]'s national radio - [987 FM]... It kinda stuck in my head now and I can't stop thinking abt the absurd chorus...

It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday
Everyone's looking forward to the weekend, weekend

What. Is. Wrong. With. Me. O. M. G...

3 days ago was [April Fool's] in [SG] and my friends decided to play a mean prank on me... I actually wanted to post up the [MSN] conver here, but [XP]'s chat log was in the .xml format and I've no frigging clue how to open and edit it or whatsoever... So bo bian lor, have to type everything out... ~_~

The culprits were [Cass] & [XP]... They claimed tt they've to think long & hard for it... Well, the gist is tt when I was chatting with [XP], she told me tt there was a mass conver the previous day and [SH] actually told everyone tt 1 of his friend is interested in me and has been stalking me online... However, he has a strange & disgusting habit of picking his nose while watching TV (WTH?!)...

@ this pt in time, with my low self-esteem & cautious nature, I was naturally doubtful... After all, I'm not exactly BF material with my zai nan-ish character and absolute disinterest in almost everything guy related (cars, sports, etc)...

However, before I could ask any further, [XP] had to leave for sch and so, I was left with [SH] & [Cass] to question... Even before [XP] asked me to check with [Cass], I've already made up my mind to ask her... Somehow, I've never felt comfy chatting with [SH] abt my insecurities and everything... It just feels... Awkward... Zzz... -_-"'

[Cass] was even more power... She told me tt said admirer is rich & hunky... Now, 'hunky' is really subjective, so to make me take the bait, she said tt the guy looks almost like actor [Elvin Ng]... Okay la, what she said was [Huang Jun Xiong]... I've to [Google] to check out the pics as I don't really remember [SG] actors names...

Weird thoughts started forming in my brain... I was still really doubtful as from personal case study of [K]:

1. Hunky guys will never be interested in me... Period... Sparkly ppl will hang out with sparkly ppl...
2. Bloody rich bastards will hang out with equally rich counterparts... In addition, with them sleeping in $ beds, they'll be sparkly too cause they can buy tons of kirei kirei clothes... This links back to pt 1 above...

Part of me was still secretly happy la... I mean, despite the odds being against me, there's still a small probability tt miracles can happen one what... So as I was tell [Cass] tt if [SH] didn't really tell me in person, I shall take the 'rumor's as false...

[CASS] THEN SAID TT IT'S NOT [SH] TT'S BLUFFING ME, BUT [XP] & HERSELF...


I was sordidly disappointed tt my 5 mins of happiness was all for nth... And I was initially furious for them to play tt kinda prank on me... Come to think of it, it's also very embarrassing la!!! My despo nature is revealed lor... *SIGH*

[Fri] was quite a happening day for me... I couldn't ta han my long & thick hair la, so I decided to chop it off... I've realised tt with a long fringe, it's IMPOSSIBLE to see when the hair is covering the eye... How do girls stand it?! Do they have a special x-ray ability to see thru their own hair??? *Puzzled*

Me (236) Me (235) Me (234) Really short hair cut & styled by the hairstylist...

Me (233) [JapaDog]!!! Wow, if not for all the cai @ the side of the hotdog, it'll be even more shiok lor...

Anyway, I heard tt [JapaDog] will be setting up a temp booth on [Tue]... Time for more awesome hotdogs... XD

SEP (276) Me ish a glutton sia... After tt hotdog, I couldn't resist and bought a crepe to go... [Nutella & Bananna Crepe]...

My friends jio-ed me out for dinner and I joined them despite being too full to eat a proper meal... This time, we headed to [Earl's Restaurant & Bar] @ [Gilmore]... Wah seh, the restaurant is located along a highway and it looks uber ulu lor... The exterior of the restaurant also looks damn shady, cause it's a black building... Machiam like warehouse like tt where kidnappers stashed their victims... LOL...

Once we approached the entrance, 4 waitresses wearing spaghetti dress & showing TONS of cleavage opened the door and welcomed us...

My thoughts: *Peek beyond cleavage land* Shit-face/piang, so dark, how to see??? Si...
XP's comment when I told her abt the waitresses: Wah, the door damn heavy is it???

SEP (277) Yes, they do have loads of nice alcoholic drinks too... Should've tried the martinis cause I heard they're quite sweet... XD

I couldn't eat much, so I ended up ordering [Sundae] ($7) & garlic bread ($4)...

SEP (279) The garlic bread... Machiam like those [HK] cafe french toast lor...

SEP (278) The waffle biscuit is coated with maple syrup... Even I find tt it's a little too sweet for me to handle... Opps... =X

Disregarding the waitresses, the waiters are also very nice to look @... But I was trying to be discreet abt it, so I paid more attention to my food instead... Haha... the only prob I have with the restaurant is tt the staff are WAYYYYY TOO FRIENDLY... Every 10 mins someone'll walk over to check how's our meal... LOL...

Okay, moving on, yesterday the sch had this exchange student briefing for the local students who're going on exchange and I decided to help out and chat with the students who're going to [SG]... Had the usual discussion as to what mods are tough, what're the recommended mods to take, etc...

I initially didn't have much of a concrete plan as to how I wanted to explore the interesting places, so [S] 1st brought me to [Surrey Central], where the other [SFU] campus is located... Amazing how I've never been there after so long hor...

The architecture of the campus is nice... Kinda had the [MRB] & [SMU] feel... And what's cool is tt the mall is located just below the campus can!!!

SEP (280) Classrooms @ the top floors, shopping centre @ the ground...

After having a short tour around the campus and the library, we traveled to [Richmond]... Checked out the 3 malls situated in [Aberdeen] and I've set my eyes on 2 shops in [Parker Place]... Shall return back there to buy the bag and perhaps some clothes too, nvm tt it's really not worth it to shop in [Canada], with everything being so freaking ex...

A previous shop @ [Aberdeen Center] tt sells rather unique tops have to tops going for anywhere from $240+... Got 1 even $400+ can... SIAO RIGHT?!


Or maybe [Asian Canadians] are just loaded... -_-"'

The final stop for the day was back @ [Robson St]... [S] recommended [Benkei Ramen] and it's really awesome!!!

SEP (283) [Curry Ramen]!!! The chicken is really tender and the curry is nice too!!! YUMS... =D

Passed by a choc fondue shop on our way back tot he skytrain stn and I'm tempted to try it!!! You'll be sure tt I'll return back to [Robson St] to try tt out!!! And I heard tt [English Bay] promises even more delicious food... HA!!!

And i love to camwhore... =D

Me (231) [Thurs], before haircut... Image: Disheveled detective look... Awesome image for a presentation, huh...

Me (237) How clay saved my hair... ^_^

Dr Food Expense, Cr Food Expense Payable...

Okay, I know I've just blogged yesterday... But hey!!! Considering tt I haven't been blogging for quite some time for the past few mths, let's consider this as backlog clearing la... Haha...

Actually, I did plan to blog abt this yesterday... It's just tt the previous post's content amuses me by so much tt I totally forgot abt it...

Not to forget [SHINee] fan fics...

Before I digress further, yesterday I actually checked my credit balance on my meal card... It initially had $1,350 for me to spend on anything in the [Dining Hall] and some other places with food...

After 82 days, balance = $670.68...

This implies tt I've spent around $679.32 on food, which is like approx. $8.28/day (3 s.f)... Give and take here and there cause there're some days when I actually decided to head elsewhere to have food other than pizza, burgers and poutine... Food such as [Subway] sandwiches, [Chinese] food and [Jap] food...

There're also days when I headed out with friends for dinner (remembers abt boomz crepes from [Cafe Crepes])...

Heh... Initially, when I did the calculations, I thought tt 8 bugz isn't really a lot... But on 2nd thought, IT IS LA!!! Because of the HUGE ASS serving and my non-existent stomach, I've been surviving on 2 meals daily... If you think abt it, tt's more than $4 per meal daily...

Back in [SG], I can have:

2 bows of ba chor mee from [Arts Canteen]
1 meal from the western food store in [Biz Canteen]
1 plate of cai fan from the [Biz Canteen]

And best of all...

4 red bean bread from the drink store in [Biz Canteen]!!!

Mind you, for all of the above items, I'll still get back a few cents change lor... -_-"'

Aha... I guess this post goes to show just how much I miss [SG] food...

Durians
Chicken rice
Char siew rice
Mos Burger
Chawanmushi

And above all, home-cooked food... =\

Inspiration To Blog!!!

I initially wanted to whine abt my pathetic love life... However, after a few days of procrastinating by doing everything apart from studying, I was inspired to blog abt something else instead...

And amazingly, the inspiration came from reading [XiaXue]'s blog... Yesssss... I was really bo liao to the extent tt after reading her few latest posts, I decided to look thru her past entries as well...

Call her entries crap or whatever... But it has to be good crap for it to attract so many readers, right???

Anyway, for the last few times tt I was clearing my e-mails from my [NUS] acc, I noticed tt some random biz ppl (okay, they're not totally random, just acquaintances) who're in [Biz Connect] have been sending e-mails to me with regards to their upcoming initiative for some networking of some sorts, I think...

Heh, from my vagueness in describing what [Biz connect] actually does, you can deduce tt I'm obviously not involved in it so I don't know what it is and I don't intend to really care... I have much more important things to do... Like ogling @ hot eye candies sitting all around me in the sch's lib... LOL...

Well, since the e-mail didn't really take up much of my space, I've decided to just ignore it and hope tt those ppl will realise tt they've been sending their e-mails to the wrong person and hence zi dong stop...


E-mail




Apparently not... ~_~

IDK how some of those ppl who sent the e-mail have the misconception tt I'm involved in this whole discussion... And it's quite absurd to say tt you mistook me for someone else can... I mean, when it comes to this kinda discussion, you should know the ppl you're collaborating with, no???

And if you were to think further, this is uber fail la, to send multiple e-mails to the wrong person... What if this is some boomz biz proposal and I'm actually your rival??? PWNED liao right???

Moving on, the contents of the e-mail said tt this was CC-ed to the alumni, blah, blah, blah... If you look @ the addressee next to my e-mail addy:

wouldyouliketogooutwithme@yahoo.com

wouldyouliketogooutwithme@yahoo.com


wouldyouliketogooutwithme@yahoo.com

This could...

Be a spam addy: Now how did tt get in there??? Added by mistake??? Wah lao, send impt e-mail never check addressee one arh??? TSK...

Or a real person's personal addressee: If this is the case, then CONFIRM this senior MUST HAVE PONNED EVERY SINGLE BIZ CAREER SERVICES WORKSHOP liaozzz... Muahahahahaha!!! =P

*Inhale, exhale*

Now tt I've gotten my amusement under control, I should reply to tt person and get him to stop including me in the discussion... =)

Attempting To Grow Fat Fail...

Heh, due to me being so busy doing other stuff apart from mugging, I've been putting off blogging till now, when I actually don't have the urge to watch any anime... Rather, I wanna listen to [987FM] and kill time till the lib closes in another 81 mins...

Tt time isn't sufficient to cover like 3 eps of anime anyway... =P

Well, a couple of wks ago, my friend was raving abt how awesome pasta @ [Anton's Pasta Bar] was... How huge the servings were and tt it's totally impossible even for a hungry ghost to finish 1 bowl of pasta... How the waiters auto will ask you whether you wanna tabao the leftovers...

Amused by the claims, I've decided to check the place out on my own last wk after my lec... To prepare my stomach for the onslaught of pasta, I even had a light breakfast... In fact, I was kinda starving when I finally made my way there...

SEP (267)

SEP (268) I think I know why most ppl can't finish the pasta le... The bread is a hidden part of the order... OMG... O_O

SEP (269) My [Agnolotti Cardinale]!!! According to the menu, it's a dish of 'meat stuffed pasta in a creamy tomato meat sauce'... And notice how the bowl is filled to the brim with pasta... I could hardly mix the sauce and after eating like 3/4 of it, I'm really uber full... Ha~...

And I didn't tabao the leftovers cause I know I won't be eating them till like exactly 24 hrs later... And this is a decision tt got me condemned by my friends... They felt tt I was quite foolish to abandon & waste such heavenly pasta... I could've packed for them... ROFLMAO...

One thing is for sure though, I'll definitely return back to satisfy my ever present thirst for pasta... XD

After my pasta adventure, the next day, I headed all the way to [Richmond] for dim sum with my other SEP friends... I didn't take much pics and the pic tt I wanna post here refused to rotate even though I already rotated it on [Photobucket]... IDK what's the prob la... Zzz... -_-"'

Despite not being able to locate any [XLBs] on the menu, as a whole though, the dim sum was delicious and relatively cheap... After the horrible 12% tax & 10% service charge, the bill came up to like $17.50 per person... Quite reasonable IMO... Haha... ^_^

SEP (273) But, but, but!!! I did take a pic of this!!! This is the dessert tt I had after the dim sum brunch & me & my friends' mini adventure in [Richmond]...

It's not really ice-kachang, but it's good enough with all the fruits... I just don't really like the ice cause they simply used the ice-blender to crush it, causing the ice to be damn coarse... LOL...

SEP (274) A pic of the [Asian Food Fest] which took place today in sch... Tried the beef and pork skewers and cheesecakes... OMG, if it isn't tt cold and i actually layered more, I think I would've bought more cheesecake instead of the 2 slices tt I had la...

Haha... Disclaimer hor... It's not because the cheesecake's nice... It's simply because there's no other better nearby alternatives like the one in the next pic, which can only be found in town and cost a freaking $7.21...

SEP (104)

Me (230) Me (228) I still camwhore once in a while... LOL!!! =P

Okay, the lib's gonna close in another 30 mins or so... Guess I should stop blogging for now, even though I do have some thoughts tt I would like to pen down... Ha~...

R/s Status: Forever Alone...

Now tt I've actually completed [You're Beautiful] and before I embark on another dramathon, I guess I should blog a little...

@ least this is a reminder to everyone out there tt I'm still alive and kicking, and haven't got swallowed by some bear looking for food... -_-"'

Anyway, I'm in the process of trying to upload all the pics tt I've accumulated for the past few wks... It's really gonna take forever considering tt there're like 247 pics... How on earth did I manage to take THAT many pics???

Okay, I guess for CERTAIN ppl, 247 pics in 3 wks is like child's play... La-la-la~...

*Ahem* I guess I should get into the content proper le, since I've only limited time on the sch's com... Gonna join my friends to play with snow later and I hope I don't freeze to death while playing... Tt's gotta really top the list of my epic fails... =P

Well, seeing tt I don't have a laptop to entertain me 24/7, my wandering mind has decided to think abt the various reasons as to why I will most likely remain single...

1. Night-blindness. This is perhaps the fundamental reason as to why I won't be able to find a BF... The inability to check out the gay scene in [SG] or even when I'm in [Vancouver], where society's really much more open to the [LGBT] community, means tt I couldn't really network and know more PLU... Of course, I can also network with all the straight ppl tt I bump into on a daily basis and hope tt one fine day, I'll hit jackpot and meet someone who's gay... But tt's like finding a needle in a haystack, isn't it???

The other thing abt this genetic flaw tt's in me is tt I can't really function well when light intensity is low... I'm like a reverse of a normal vampire, or [Cinderalla] with an earlier curfew... In other words, even if I wanna spend quality time, I've only till before the sun sets and really, now available am I during those times when there's sch to be content with???

2. Introverted nature. I take quite some time to warm up to ppl and in this community, this is really working against my favor... There's this unspoken need to really hit it off on the 1st date, which is really WTH... And is it really a crime tt I prefer to take it slow??? Come to think of it, the rush for the guys to be in a r/s is giving me the impression tt they've a ticking biological clock akin to females approaching the age of 40...

3. Wrong priorities. No matter how I rank it, I somehow place whatever I can do with my com immediately after my studies... Or on par with my studies and everything else will rank below it... So, unless I can find someone as crazy as me to really log into [FB] on a daily basis simply for [RC]-ing or spamming our walls with game posts of different sorts, I guess I'm on my own for the time being...

4. Loner. I can really do social events on my own... Eating, shopping, catching a movie... In actual fact, I like to window shop alone... @ least I can walk around, own time, own target... And I'll usually target what I wanna buy 1st before returning back another time with another person in tow to give me opinions as to whether I should really buy it...

5. High expectations. Okay, I don't sparkle like [Edward Cullen], or have a bod like [Jacob Black], but I sure as hell would like my other half to be as romantic as [Kang Shin Woo] or as adorable as [Jeremy] from the [Korean] drama [You're Beautiful]... Yeah, TV has really instill an unrealistic ideal BF in my head such tt normal guys all pale in comparison in my eyes...

Hmmm... I thought the list could go on, but I guess my brain has indeed turn a bit mushy from the lack of protein in my diet tt thinking for an hr is really hurting my head... Woah, is this how I can devolved to a himbo??? o_O

Accelerated D-day...

I guess being on [RC], [Cafe World] & watching a whole lots of dramas totally beat blogging... And the reason why I'm doing this now is because I'm debating b/w heading downtown and checkout the gay bookstore and doing ep 2 of [You're Beautiful]...

With snow and rain falling down in campus, I've a feeling tt it's raining everywhere in [Vancouver], and this is the kind of weather tt's not nice to walk around in... Just think freezing fingers and toes... Brrr...

Anyway, I know I haven't been uploading any pics for quite a while... The reason is because I totally forgot to bring the cable to transfer the pics... Of course, I could rely on the SD card, but after it gave me the BSOD after I tried to force my lappy to read the darn thing, I've decided tt screwing my com just because of a few hundred pics is a price tt I can't afford to pay...

Well, tt was a couple of wks back... And just 4 days ago, I found out tt my com did indeed died on me... It now refused to boot up... The only indication tt it's not totally dead is simply a flashing num lock light...

*Sigh*

Just great, all this happened when I'm having my reading break, the perfect time to actually stay in my room and nua the entire time away just like I've always done... Not to forget tt I'm totally dependent on [FB] to kill the time... How am I suppose to survive w/o [RC], [Cafe World] and constantly stalking ppl tt'll easily take up like half a day???

MY ENTIRE LIFE AS I KNOW IT, IS OVERRRRR... *Screams*


O-k-a-y... Tt's like a little kua zhang cause obviously, I managed to survive 4 days w/o destroying anything in sight or mourning like some retard... The bright side of this is tt I'll finally be forced to really mug...

Like real...

4 days have passed and all I've ever did was to head to [West Mall Complex] to use the com lab and play with my [iPhone]... Of course, there's also [Tue] when I decided to head out to [ChinaTown] on my own for some dim sum... And speaking of tt, it was really a good experience, trying to locate any restaurant tt sells dim sum... I think I did walked like 3 circles around [ChinaTown] before locating a random restaurant to satisfy my cravings and even then, being a puny eater tt I am when it comes to normal food, I couldn't eat much... =\

Next time, if I could find anyone to accompany me, I'll definitely wanna try more stuff... Tee-hee... ^_^

Hmmm... I think tt's abt it for this post... I think I'll just continue with my drama watching for today and head out tmr... It's kinda sucky to go out on my own when I've a time limit hovering above my head... No matter what, I've to be back before the sun sets or I'll be in trouble... The street lighting around here isn't tt good as compared to tt of in [SG]...

Of course, when friends are around, they shall be my eyes and I'll usually stay out till much later... Ho-ho-ho... =D

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!!!
