Meteor

6th May 2012
Yesterday I went star gazing with some of my friends. We took the last bus to the University, slept there until three in the morning then head out to Columbia Ice Field. No one is there and I thought that some people must be there since the news forecast that there will be a meteor shower yesterday but I guess we were the ones that are excited with this whole thing. It was really cold out there. Even though I wore three layers of clothes but I guess that it is just not enough to handle the night whether in spring. We did managed to saw some of the stars moves and disappeared but I guess I was unlucky enough to miss the huge one with the tails. Two of my friends who saw it said it only lasted for about two seconds and they were lucky to be facing that direction that time. I wish I saw that but at least I was the first one to spotted three of the meteors last night and one of them are moving in the opposite direction to the rest of the meteor accompanied by another meteor parallel to it.

We stayed there until 4:30am when the stars are covered by the clouds. The moon is very bright that night as well so it actually make it hard for us to look at the stars. We also waited for the sun rise that was about 6:30am in the morning. Everything is tiring but worth it. We slept at the comfy lounge until 9:30am where Cedric woke me up to go home. I continue my sleep in my room but the temperature is so cold that I can't stop shivering.

Later today, we carried most of the luggage that we wanted to put at Kai Xiang house. There was so many luggage that it make it difficult to carried all onto the bus but me managed it after all even though the whether is super hot and I started to sweat after a few minutes of walk. When we were waiting for the second bus, I went to Starbuck Coffee to get some drinks but the queue is so long that it is impossible for me to wait in the line as the bus is leaving soon. But the deal is quite nice. Half price for the frappucino from 3pm to 5pm. Maybe I will go and get it tomorrow.

Finally tomorrow will be the day I left Canada and go back to Malaysia. It felt sad because going back is not easy. There are a lot of things that I need to pay attention and also a lot of other stuff to settle before I can really fly back without any worries. I hoped nothing goes wrong tomorrow...

I forgot to write a diary yesterday so I guess I have no choice but to deduct my allowance out. PD2 courses also begin already. I think I will try to finish the quizzes early so that I can have some free time at the end of the courses so that I can prepare for FM paper better. I did not go through C++ and FM for the past few days due to all the packing. But I am definitely taking it in August and I will pass the paper this time with a high score. Go for it and good luck!!
