It is out orientation day today, few of us who stay in ocean island gather on 7am this morning and move tgther to Uvic by bus. it take us about 20 min from ocean island to UVic by bus .
Its cool, when we reach there, there are a lot of people from all around the world. At first, we tot that there are only around 20 ppl, coz tht is the amount of ppl the join the exchange group in fb, but now there are abt 50 ppl from poland, French, Germany, Sweden, Spain, Mexico,Noway, Thailand,Austria, China, Japan, Korea, Singapore.....did i miss anyone??
well, what shock me is tht, there are 8 ppl from Singapore, 4 from NTU and 4 from NSU-a new Uni in singapore at orchard road. getting quite close to those chinese...haha...and also a few of fren from other country, which we have to conversate in english.....doing my best to brush up it....
during the briefing, our academic advisor, Braig ask us who can talk more than 3 language to stand up, and there are only around 5 ppl tht stand up inclide me and yann ni, and we found tht only malaysia chinese can talk so many different kind of languge included our dialect- hokkien and cantonies.
i am now truly immerse myself in an environment of cultural diversity. and learn a lot from experience of other in their country. exchange of our different cultural though on food, and some view and value, is quite an interesting thing.
after the orientation, we having our lunch at Ric's Grill, is quite a class restaurant, serving western and italian food. I had a steak Sirloin, i order medium but it come as almost well done...but still taste good for me..Braig was sit on my table, and we share a lot ....
