went to the US/Canada border today.. immigration actually coz the other homestay student had to get his visa sorted out! so yah.. quite interesting actually.. it is like the border between Malaysia and Singapore I think hey... like so easy access thru (like you can either walk or drive over) except now apparently you nee da visa to get into US since the 911 incident and the visa cost US$100 although it is valid for 10 years...
hmm.. then later we also went to shopping at this supermarket called T&T... it is some big taiwanese supermarket here acutally.. like it's like a normal supermarket except it tells all the asian stuff! pretty neat idea.. stuff there is not that expensive from what i can tell...
difference between perth and vancouver i have discovered so far:
1. i have friends and family in the former but not the latter
2. stuff is measured in kg in the former but lb in the latter
3. lefthand drive vs right hand drive
aiya.. anyway, later went for some chinese pastor prayer meeting thing.. it ended up being him praying for people... or well maybe that was the intention but at first i thought it was a prayer meeting. anyway.. he prayed for me in mandarin.. didnt quite understand all of it but bits and pieces i guess.. then it dawned on me:
God doenst only listen and speak in english.. can you imagine all the differnet ppl from the world praying and speaking to God in all the different languages? how amazing isit that God understands it all?!!! its like being bilingual is hard enough but think more incredible our God is huh!!! :)
hmm.. i think i should change my blog time to MY time even though it is 15h behind everyone in singapore and perth... but otherwise the dates im posting these won't really correspond with what;s happening here..
oh.. n it is summer here btw and like 16 degrees... i wonder how freezing i would be in winter!!
