Tonight, I will start my 2-week journey to various places in Canada and USA. The first stop of my trip would be Edmonton, where I will spend 2 days. Then I will go to Calgary and spend one day. From Calgary, I'll be flying to Las Vegas. After spending 2 days in LV, I will travel around USA Southwest and California, before visiting my father's friend, Uncle Danny, in San Francisco (my last stop). I will fly back from San Francisco to Vancouver on 3rd January. Then, finally, I will fly back to Singapore on 5th January.

Yesterday, I moved all my luggage to the house of my father's friend, Mrs Poon. At night, I came back to UBC to spend my very last night in Gage Residence... My room looks very empty now, since all the luggage was moved away yesterday. This morning, when I was walking to Fairview Residence to return something to my friend, I saw frost everywhere. Almost everything was covered in a white layer. (The water vapour in the air condensed onto a surface and freezed to form frost.) The sight was very pretty, but it was very very cold... (Unfortunately, I left my camera with my luggage, so I didn't have a chance to take a photo. I also left my gloves with my luggage, so I had nothing to cover my hands. After a few minutes outdoor, my hands became numb.)

Today I will spend my last working day in the lab, followed by a Dim Sum lunch with the people in my research group. (This is probably the last meal I'm having with them.) In the afternoon, I will go back to Mrs Poon's house to pick up my luggage for my trip. Then, in the evening, I will be leaving Vancouver on a Greyhound bus to Edmonton... From then on, I will be on my own, until I meet my father's friend Uncle Danny in San Francisco on New Year Eve. I'm praying everything will turn out fine for my trip...

Book of Days...
Here's a stanza of a song from Enya to start u off ;) One day, one night, one moment, My dreams could be, tomorrow. One step, one fall, one falter, East or west, over earth or by ocean. One way to be my journey, This way could be my book of days.
