Skiing, Sailing, playing Lego

I am just sitting in the new Sauder Library after one of this unique Creativity classes, procrastinating learning - listing to good tunes and writing my blog instead. When I watch out of the window, I see the Canadian flag flying in the wind and the ocean moving. Ask me if I am happy in Vancouver and you will receive a pretty straight forward answer right now : Yeap.

The above mentioned Creativity class is actually very worth mentioning here. This class is all about getting some of the creativity back that we all had in our childhood and most people lose on their way to maturity. Last week, we had a two hour session playing with Lego. Everyone who knows me a bit longer knows about my passion for Lego. Consequently, I enjoyed the session quite a bit. I won't say, it has been the best class yet - but its close. Teamed up in group of four we build a story with Lego and told it to the class afterwards. Guess what our story was about?!


Last weekend wasn't so bad either. Saturday, I went night skiing on Grouse Mountain - you go skiing in fresh costal mountain powder and watch down to the city at night - pretty cool. Where else in the is that possible? Sunday, I was on another sailing trip over to Bowen Island. Skiing and Sailing within 24 hours - not bad I would say?!




The last highlight for today: my exchange application is approved now. From September to December 2012 you will find me somewhere on the Campus of CEIBS in Shanghai. So, hurry up to visit me here or book your flight directly to China.
