Back to School Season

I'm back on blogspot!! ... Yes, after four whole months.

Summer just came by, but I've been busy for most of the time working as a full-time Co-op student at the Vancouver General Hospital research lab.  It's an 8-month work term, so I won't be going back to school until January next year.  Weekends were fun though, since I got to spend some quality time with my friends and family. :)

Grouse grind was one of the more frequently-visited places for me this summer. I went for a total of four times so far this year! (It's not over yet though, I might be going again sometime later this month) =]

Of course, Grouse grind is not fun unless you go with your friends ~ :D

I love my friends.  They always brighten up my day whenever I see them lol. <3
Incase anyone was wondering, my friend was trying to demonstrate a nomnomnom pose for a photo.It's really more difficult than you think!

Celebration of light was also a highlight of summer 2011!

Needless to say, I went to the one by Canada. I just had to support my own country~ Unfortunately, we did not win this year. =(

Beach was also a must-go location for the sunny weather!

A friend of mine introduced me to a youtube singer, Clara C, whose concert just happened to be in Vancouver two weeks ago.  Although she is relatively new, her voice was amazing even when she's singing live! My friends and I bought the meet and greet tickets, and so we got to take a photo with her (third one from the right in the photo below).

She's so tall and pretty and talented!

Those are pretty much some of the things that I did over this past summer. Oh, and of course, I had my birthday!! :)

Sorry, but I'm keeping my age somewhat of a secret here. ;)

With September already past and October now in session, it's back to school  season again for most students out there! Of course, this does not apply to me until January. :P I'm still taking a distance education course though~


Rachat01


Working hard, or hardly working? :3

Meet Rachat! He was made using a size 8mm hook for his body and male kimono and a size 4.5mm hook for his nose using 100% acrylamide yarn. It's a bit hard to see his kimono in these photos though, maybe I'll take a full-length photo of him next time!


Rachat03


Rachat was made based on a pattern given to me as a present from my friend, Joyce.  Thus, I did not design him. I did add a pair of theatre 3D glasses on him to make him look sightly more handsome though! X)


Rachat05


His head is just as big as mines!! or maybe even bigger.. ^^

That's it for now! I'll try my best to update this blog a little more. I think I'm losing most of my followers with such slow updates (not that I have a lot to begin with). :S

For more photos of Rachat, visit my Rachat set on Flickr!

I have to say, that Christmas Chess Set there is pretty darn awesome!!
