Ah, it’s good to be back to blogging. I took a well-rested break and now getting back to school is awesome. I suppose you all want updates?
1. For the summer I traveled to places in Asia. Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and South Korea. It was a culture shock for every one of them; and I enjoyed immensely all the time I’ve spent (and also the food. omg.). Though strangely enough I found dimsum in Hong Kong to be on par with Vancouver’s dimsum. And meeting family, especially those you didn’t know they were family, is always a happy moment.
2. Imagine Day was, again, a blast. It was fun meeting the new first years and talking to them about expectations and what to do now that they’re in UBC. MUG Leaders were really helpful in that regard. Hopefully they’re still in touch with their muggies..
3. On Sept. 17th, 4:30AM, I submitted my med school application to UBC. I really have got to stop doing these things last minute.. But since I’ve done the application last year I didn’t feel any pressure to complete it early. Now that it’s done, I feel like I got some weight off my back. And I only applied to and will only apply to UBC.
4. 2 days ago I got notified that I got the Orientations and Transition Coordinator position! Really really excited to work with Student Development Staff to make Imagine Day better than ever. Can’t wait to meet the new squad leaders this year!
