I miss dragonboat, I love the smell of my room, I have great new friends (we braved the rockies together!), I want to row, I love my soci lecturer, I need to sing Karaoke, I have to start (preferably finish) reading, I love my soci lecturer, I’m waiting for salsa to start, I just got back from the ROCKIES!, I think my life is right on track! =) arhahahahahaha…

The above musings were made in an exceptionally sane state of mind after being notified that:

I’m in the team for Day of the Longboat,
My soci lecturer’s idea of a proposal is a 1-sentence email stating only my topic,
I suddenly have time to do my readings,
We have a karaoke outing on Friday,
I have a Psychology subject pool slot,
Salsa rocks!,
There is a massage course on campus that’s super cheap (and hopefully good),
My friends are willing to loan me notes for the lessons I missed…

Isn’t my life fantastic? That’s not all… For the uninformed, I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE CANADIAN ROCKIES! How was it? extremelyfantasticthemountainsweregorgousthefriendsweregreat!
In short, I had a hell of a time. =)

It was a 4-day trip with 8 crazy people (more like 8 kids, as the rest of the group were aunties and uncles... who seemed to have great interest in us, and pretty much liked us alot too!) We went to many mountains, many of which we didn’t even know names of. We were up the Columbian Icefield, which was literally, a h-u-g-e area covered with ice even in the middle of September! I cant even describe how excited we were. =) We had packed meals almost everyday, thus saving us money to buy nonsense like fresh apples, apple juice, apple ice wine and pizza! =) We were so lucky, cos we caught SNOW on Mt Sulphur in the middle of September. To me, no place should be snowing in the middle of September. But to our surprise and Christine's delight, it really snowed. *sighs* It was so pretty and calm and suddenly, you feel that the world is really a great place.(right ms chen?) =) Lake Lousie was the other place that really struck me. The water is turquoise, seriously. Not the redang blue, not Singapore brown, but this perfect shade of blue-green that left me shocked... =)

And how can i not mention my crazy friends... From the Pyramid game (we really played it...why did we entertain you cheekian?!), to our endless cans of tuna, saLmond, butter, peanut butter, bread, bread and more bread (YX was like chef of the trip, all that was missing was his tall hat which he tried to replacate with some cups stacked on each other. haha), the endless bus rides (with Joe puking and the intro to the virgina bitch..), the corny movies (Joe and his spiderweb to keep a certain Butterfly out after watching Spiderman 2), the stupid comments (you heard one every 2 seconds - large contibution by CK and Dan), the lively banter (largely bitchy talk between Ck and ms chen, sometimes selena and yx even!), the times the gals crashed the guys' room (like every night... we're smart!), the little girl-talk sessions we had in the room (predictably, it was about men... right cass and ms chen?), the 20000 photos we took (imagine the same group shot taken on at least 5 cameras, that's why)... wow, what can i say... it's the company that counts? haha...you bet! Thank you guys for making my trip so very memorable =) Where are we going next?????!

I don’t think my pictures do justice to the scenery, but i tried... just know that I really enjoyed myself, and I cant wait for our next trip out! =)
