CANADA

I spent my kindergarden years there. So yeah, i only had proper education when i entered a primary school. hahas! Before that, i had 2 years to bum my lazy ass around Edmonton,Alberta. Like most foreigners, we rented a dormitory room. I can't remember much of it, save for there's a green lawn and a girl of my age. HAHA! We would buy sweets and share with one another, her favourite was the "honey lemon tea". It was only at the dormitory that i get to take the public transport. And its really like those you see in movies, metallic and simple.. (i like!) There was this one time when i pressed the bus bell at the wrong stop and my bro made me get down and walk to the dorm! EVIL

After some time, we got an apartment of our own and a car! The Dodge Caravan! ( i dunnoe how's it spelt) I tell you, its SUPER comfy!! The chair was covered with velvet so its really smooth and warm. We used the car to travel round the whole of canada so the chairs better not be hard and cold! The apartment was GREAT. It was cosy and had this really warm feeling to it. (man, i hate typing in past tense) The balcony was my playground, during winter, i would watch the snow pile REAL HIGH and then go bury myself in it! And during spring, i would play with the ducks at the lake behind the apartment. Its so damn adorable i tell you, esp whenever i throw bread at them.

Edmonton's great lah, esp the West Edmonton Mall (the world's largest shopping mall). It has a few thousands shops, a water park, dolphine lagoon, submarine, theme park with 360 degree roller coster/pirate ship rides and many many more! This is what i call LIFE! lets see.. other than the mall..i can only remember the "superstore" i love so much and this Jap restaurant near our apartment. Other than that...eh.. i need some memory refreshing.
