Welcome to HHM Land!

I'm amazed that I've been in Vancouver for 2 months!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?

What crazy, wonderful things i've experienced these 2 months! Sometimes, i look back and I still can't believe it.

I can't believe i've been to the Rockies.

I can't believe that I had taken in all that beauty, all the wonders of the Earth, the majestic mountains, the reflective lakes.

I can't believe I've gone through half the term with assignments and mid-term exams.

I can't believe i've been cooking for myself for the past 2 months.

I can't believe how God had led me to UChapel and made me feel so comfortable about worshipping him there (singing familiar and favourite worship songs and hymns), how the sermons are so well-preached and speaks to me every single week.

I can't believe I'm surviving the cold winter. the -20 degrees in the Rockies, and the 2 degrees right now. The incessant rain and heavy wind.

I can't believe i've been swimming a few times a week and keeping fit.

I also can't believe that I've been doing some crazy shopping (prob not as crazy as my buddy's).

It's been an awesome 2 months and i really thank God for this experience. The next 2 months will go by fast. November will be filled with trips to Seattle and Whistler. December will be filled with mugging for mid-terms...and then I'll be home!

It's so ironic. I look forward to going home. But i know that when i'm home, i'm going to miss my slow-paced lifestyle here. Relax, skip classes, only study last minute for exams, go out and play every weekend, oh i love my life here!!

It's starting to get cold here. It's around 7 to 12 degrees but when it drizzles for the whole week, its awfully cold. There have been some things that I've meant to get down to blogging about, but didn't manage to.

First on the list is the christian camp that i went to a few weeks ago. It was a UCM (university christian ministry) camp at Camp Capilano in North Vancouver. It was inside the Capilano Regional Park, a very famous and big mountain park. We had a very good time of fellowship, prayer and encountering God. The highlight of the trip was knowing that I can be near God and that Jesus loves me very much. During the camp, we also had time to roam around the place. We went to see salmon spawning and the water dams which provides water to the whole of West Vancouver. We climbed mountains, explored forests and crossed rivers. It was a lot of fun!

The weekend that just past was Thanksgiving weekend. I went on a 4 days 3 nights trip to the Canadian Rockies. There were lots of mountains, rivers, lakes and beautiful scenery! I just couldn't believe it that I was taking in all the beauty with my own eyes. At every place, I was in awe of how beautiful it was and couldn't help praising God and believing that He is the creator of it all. Photos on facebook, go take a look! :)
