Coming home!

hello....just came back from my 10 day trip to the US....visited 4 cities, namely boston, philadelphia, washington dc, and new york city.....it was a tiring and 'schedule packed' trip involving lots of walking and navigating....thankfully, the entire trip ran really smoothly with all the buses departing on time and arriving according to schedule...it was a fun trip, took lots of photos....but wont have time to upload it...will only do it after i reach singapore....but honestly, US really not as safe as canada...

ok, leaving montreal on 29th dec morning....6am flight...have to be mentally prepared for the 30 hours flight...if not, sure will have serious jet lag problem...have to go and pack my stuff now...
and do last minute souvenir shopping...=)

ok....see ya...my good friends in singapore and kl, see ya soon!!

so much to do....so little time.....

hello...

the past 4 days have been extremely hectic....crammed for 2 consecutive test with only a day gap in between....it wouldnt have been so stressful if i started earlier...hmm...being last minute again....last night, crammed for my financial statement analysis test held this morning....had hardly 4 hours of sleep...then have to wake up to mug some more...headache the whole night, waking up every 1/2 an hour coz i was paranoid that i might oversleep and be late for the test...lately, i been busy juggling between studying for my test, and preparing for my US trip...coz i m going right after my exam which is next week, so this week everything must confirm liao.. spending 2 days to study for an entire sem is crazy lar...damn tired...served me right..

so today's tuesday, hence, i have tomorrow and thursday to prepare for 2 tests on friday!! oh no...
i'll be cramming again...summore, one of the course i've been skipping classes for quite a # of times, havent been keeping up.....well...sigh....

anyway, today, it was snowing cats and dogs....haha....it's really like raining, but instead of droplets of rain, it's snow....but it was really cold when i rushed to school this morning for the test...but the snow doesnt really make u wet...i couldnt really see clearly coz the snow keep falling on my face..

there's a thick layer of snow oredi....easily a few inches...can play snow later!! actually i showelled the front entrance when i got back, but it snowed again....waste all my effort...=(
but yesterday was the coldest since i've been here...-20 degrees...getting out of the house is a pain in the ass...why??? coz i have to

1. wear longjohns inside
2. then long sleeve tshirt and jeans..
3. thick socks
4. gloves...damn impt...this one really cannot forget, coz i was lazy to wear my gloves when i brought the rubbish out, my hands hurt even after 30 minutes...
5.hat...
6.winter boots..
7.thick winter jacket..

basically, my whole body is covered except for my face...actually if wear a scarve, maybe can cover the mouth, then wear sunglasses, then practically everywhere is covered...=)

It feels like walking on very fine sand or flour.....actually it looks more like icing sugar....
pure and white.....but the roads are dirty and brownish...coz the vehicles run over it..

btw, i found out how i 'kena' the antivirus 2009 already....i m very sure it was from one of the pop-ups when i log on to friendster.com....coz after that incident, i went back to the site, and the window just closed immediately.and my AVG says it detected a virus...i even tried using the school's desktop, the antivirus thingy pop up at that website....so those using friendster, must be careful....well so far, my laptop hasnt been giving me any major problems..but it's lagging a bit...

ok...bye..
