The Weekend in Toronto January 31, 2009
So we didn’t see a lot in Toronto, though I never thought there would be much to see anyway. Checked out the CN tower, Kensington, St Lawrence Market, Chinatown and Eaton center (retail therapy ftw) mainly, and retreated back to our rooms at night to chill. We stayed at the courtyard, marriott, a bit of a squeeze for 6 of us, but the story of the lives of poor students. Not traveling this weekend cos we are all kinda broke plus I have a midterm and 2 presentations the upcoming week. Which explains why I am in the library on a Saturday afternoon, waiting for my next meeting to begin, having just finished with one. Sounds like smu? You bet. Watched slumdog millionaire 2 nights ago which was a really good! Wanna watch the curious case of benjamin button and revolutionary road. 2 people have told me that revolutionary road “fucks you up” and is more depressing than Schindler’s list. Off to read my case, have a good weekend friends!
Toronto Food! January 31, 2009
To satisfy our cravings for chinese food, we stuffed ourselves silly in Chinatown in Toronto. Here’s some of the stuffs we binged on in merely a span of slightly less than 3 days!
The Weekend in Tremblant! January 27, 2009
Happy Lunar New Year! I miss all my CNY goodies, especially pineapple tarts. Haven’t really been taking peektures since I have arrived for the sole reason that I find it too cold to take out my camera. Nevertheless, I’ve managed to steal some from my friends, from that weekend in Tremblant where we skied and got into FOUR car accidents all the way back, and ended up being slapped with a C$1800 fine.
The snowman was built outside the window of our bedroom by the guys in the morning, and that house was our comfy home for that 2 nights. Learnt how to ski over there, with my fair share of embarrassing incidents including once when I couldn’t break and basically threw myself into the arms of a random stranger. There are more pictures, but wordpress is being a pain in the ass to upload photos, so that’s all folks. Hope everyone is enjoying themselves in this festive season!
