Almost finished

Yes! 5 months have been pasted! Incredible and amazing! If I wanted to partition these months it will be so easy:
August - Holiday
September - Introduction
October - Questioning & Regretting
November - Conceding & Hard Working
December - (Expected) More hard working ...

Now I'm writing some of the stuff that will finalize most of my works the course because there is no final exam. Nevertheless, I do have two final exams one from 505 and 344 (ehhh!) And still have to finish two projects and one assignment. I learnt a lot and explored both myself and revealed another 6 months of my future. My expectations and decisions are starting to take more shape and I'm so glad for that.

I'm flying to New York on 20th December and I have no doubt that holiday is going to be a great energy refill for me! More fun and work will be waiting for me in Vancouver. I can't believe that now I have spent the same time as in my exchange. If you'll ask me, I probably had chance to do only 25% of things this time compared to 2007. Next term I'm expecting courses to be more balanced! Will seee! I'm guessing that I won't be writing here until January.

Happy new year! Happy 2010!!

A must-have list of a typical grad

1. big chunk of ice cream - there should always at least one while depressed with work
2. pack of tea or coffee - for sleepless night before deadlines
3. pasta - for cooking during the sleepless nights again
4. addictive tv series - there is always one although you won't need it
5. pair of extra glasses - in case being out of lenses and throwing last one
6. good friend outside of school - when life sucks, you don't want to see anyone from school
7. emergency market - to buy something late night such as pack of cigarettes, coke, ice cream, coffee
8. lots of photos of loved ones - to keep yourself sane and reminding a backup plan of going back home
9. place to drink on friday nights - fridays are always best for drinking
10. headache pill - you never know when you need it

will add few more if found necessary.

Ambulo: Walkabout Phase II

Our project presentation of course CPSC544 Phase II. Our presentation is also recorded. I will try to post that video as well.

Can't control my hands

I guess I am swelled up around these days so that I can not hold myself writing on a paper or here! However this time it is somewhat different. I feel like my hands are aspiring to express something, but my mind can not control them and I can't write something meaningful.

I watched the movie 'Sweet November' on the tuesday night after cooking some meat and later two chocolate soufflés. It was an emotional movie for me and sometimes I lost myself in that perfect world. After few hours watching movie, I was still in its spell that I didn't realized it was too good to be true. I never met people like Sara who can pull you out from an augmented reality and show you what you are truly capable of. She was totally an extraordinary person but not real. She had principals, pride, strength and patience -she was also very good looking but this has got noting to do with it's reality- but ....

I was going to end this sentence but I believe I am too young to complete it. I hope I'll never be able to complete it because I do still want to believe in Sara. Life is too short to wait, and to fast grasp all.

I seriously want and need to go somewhere where no one can reach me as well as I can contact them at least for a year. I know that this will only slowdown life in my eyes and will not change anything. So why do I want to do it then ..?

Maybe I should also consider keeping this blog private?

Chilliwack

Rafting photos arrived at last ! This was probably 2 months back... Marine Drive Event which I initially registered Shailen and Gordon too but they got some health problems later on and missed this great trip. The water levels were pretty low but it was still a fun experience. I do still keep the clay I took from Chilliwack.
