Hello New Place?
Hi,
I am really sorry for the super late post. I was suppose to continue about CPU, but after such a long time I became lazy to talk about the past and doubtful to think about future. Therefore, I give you the present.
After my graduation from Canadian Pre-University, I had two months of fun with family and friends. Now, I am in Vancouver, the best city to live in the world.
Being a first year science student in a renown university, University of British Columbia makes me to feel proud, responsible and scary at the same time. However, a warm welcome by the university during one-day orientation called Imagine Day boosted my confidence.
I never knew about this place very much. I didn't do my homework well. I never researched about Vancouver properly. I just thought of diving into the new environment and then start swimming.
After being here in 3 weeks, I learnt a lot about this place and life.
1- Vancouver is the most beautiful city I have ever seen.
2- The campus is gorgeous and full of trees. You can literally take a documentary about plants in this campus.
3- The sunset in UBC is the most beautiful one from the little collections of sunsets that I have seen.
4- People are so diverse and friendly. They can be mean or rude also.
5- No chili sauce, only tomato ketchup. :( But Heinz tomato tastes good too.
6- No tissue, but napkin. There are plenty of works I used to use in Malaysia are never used here. I can't think of any now.
7- One card for all public transportation services-translink.
8- It is not easy to transit into a new environment, especially new country.
9- Malaysia is awesome.
10- The phone plan here is very complicated
11- Inspiration is everywhere and it depends on an individual where to find it.
12- Listen to your heart although mind speaks the logic.
13- Friends will be there when I need them.
14- When I am lost, there will be at least another person in the same boat. After all, life is SIMPLE!
15- Home is just a call away.
16- Friends are just a text away. :P
17- Finally, I learnt that my heart lies here and I will definitely rock it.
p/s the building in the picture is one of the oldest building in the campus.
