ROAD TRIP! we're going to Lethbridge today!
calgary's one day behind singapore. so though it may be saturday where you're at, it's friday here. somehow, it feels like fewer days have gone by without you guys.


lethbridge is 2 hours drive down south from calgary. 2 hours may not seem really long, but IT IS, considering we're speeding down the highways at 120km/h (speed limits here are 110km/h) - and overtaking on the left... 2 hours is still too long.

remember how i told you calgary has lots of cows? well cos i'm living in the city, there aren't many cows. but once you're out of the inner city, hello cows! brown cows! black cows! white cows with black spots, brown spots, grey spots! cows! cows! cows! hahaha.

OH OH OH! i saw SHEEP! and horses too! hahaha. my brother ryan and girlfriend jo thought i was a little loopy because i was strangely excited to see sheep. i blame the long car ride. grin.

p/s: i miss you guys.




we had to drive closer just so we could read 'wide load'. ain't that silly? (:

the reason why we went to lethbridge;
i wanted to check out the university there. they have the canadian behavioural and neurological sciences course i'm interested in. i think the campus is made up of a total of 5 buildings. seriously.

check out the SPACE! this is the university.

our road kill. Father, forgive us. hahaha.
poor butterflies. at night, when we're driving and we don't hit them, them butterflies look like shooting stars. (:

it gets cold at night. i love my new socks. yes, they're fluffy.

my first home cooked meal before we set off for lethbridge - beef noodle soup! no, no one fell sick after eating my cooking. don't you wish you could try it! yum. (:

i miss singapore food. i have to thank those who obliged to travel the island with me to enjoy all those singapore treats before i left - for eg. the crew and my last past-midnight supper at KTM for some mee soto! grin.

to the crew: i hope you guys kicked ass at the soccer match i missed. you know i'm cheering for you from all the way over here. (:

frivolous moments: jo and myself in a boutique.

i swear shopping here is insanely cheap - think zara or a warehouse EVERYWHERE! once you've shopped here in calgary, you'll prolly never want to shop in singapore again. haha. i bought a belt for CA$5. you can get jackets/tops/dresses for CA$15-30 (which is no more than S$40!). are you jealous now? (:

btw, i bought my first pair of boots from a mall in lethbridge. i'm gonna wear 'em tomorrow! (: (: (:
