Wink Updated with more pics!

I copy pasted directly from gallery section, so please ignore all the intro of universities and stuff since we all live here .


So, the weather forecast has been saying that this week is going to be sunny. However, it was completely cloudy and dark in the city.

Today, I drove up to school, and found out that the weather forecast was actually right afterall .

Hope the sunshine will bring some comfort in this brutal winter (especially for those of us who get a lot of snow). Spring will be here...soon...

Just a little intro. I live in BC, Canada, and there are two large university in here: University of British Columbia (UBC), and Simon Fraser University (SFU).
UBC is beside the ocean, while SFU is on top of the mountain. Normally it's very depressing up here in SFU compared to UBC because during winter it's mostly covered in fog, and later you can also see all building's exposed concrete (it's by an architecture who built a prison).

Today was different though....

1. Driving up to the mountain from the depressing cloudy city and penetrating through the thick fog, finally I was starting to see the light of hope!




2. Snapped a couple of pictures of MY04




3. That's where I came from....the Silent Hill


4. Well, let's head up to school (please ignore the N sign )


5. Starting to clear up now



6. Snapped a couple of pictures inside the Academic Quadrangle





7. Well... while it's dark down there in the city, it feels great up here above the clouds







8. A couple enjoying their time


9. Snapped a couple of pictures of our school buildings... yes the concreteness




Called Academic Quadrangle because it's built in a square


Our Convocation Mall



More pics of ocean of clouds




Small mountains are buried in the clouds



10. Sun's down







I was supposed to study a few hours before, but I ended up taking pictures and uploading instead

Hope you all enjoyed

Lol, while I was perusing the pictures I was wondering why you didn't need to study!

The Academic Quadrangle looks like a big waste of space and the Convocation Mall is a joke! Overall though SFU is nice. I like the fact that everything is linked and indoors!
