Still can't believe..

Hi to all who is reading this humble blog of mine!! First of all, i have to apologise for the dull and unoriginal outlook of my blog, but give me time and i'll try my best to improve on it alright! Afterall, i am a noob blogger..

Anyway, i'm finally in Vancouver!! I still can't believe it, despite being on a 14 hr plus sleepless flight transiting at HK, walking out braving the icy cold winds to have lunch and buy grocery, unpacking my luggages and now typing out this entry in my new room, that i am actually here, embarking on my exchange program.

Remembered that when i entered NUS, exchange program was on my mind but it seemed unattainable. Yet, i am doing it now but the excitement that i have now doesn't seem to match that of what i thought i would have when i was in year one, maybe i'm just tired and not settled in *cross fingers*.

Whatever it is, now that i'm here (plus all the money and time i have spent preparing), i'm filled with confidence that this trip will be one of the most memorable, fun and enriching part of my life!! For the time being, no photos will be uploaded due to lack of nice photos and also, i have yet to figure out how to upload them *oops*.

Anyway, UBC seems like an old, laidback deserted town!! It looks so different from what i thought a university would look like, but then again, i have only explored a small part of it. Tmr will be exploring the other parts of UBC and school starts proper as well, so should be seeing more live injected into this prosaic place!! Also, i guess because it is sunday over here, most shops close early, no thanks to the laidback culture of Canada i guess.

My room is small and has a weird shape for its layout. It is neither square nor rectangular, it somehow resembles more of a triangle and this creates problem for me to place things around and to move around as well. Room wasn't that good though i have to praise its cleanliness and free gifts left behind by the previous occupant - hangers and lan cable.

That's all i have to say for this first entry of mine i guess, nothing fanciful or meaningful, but just what i feel like saying. Time for my long-awaited slumber...

Favourite part of my room..
Thank u =)
