University of Waterloo 1999 - 2000 The shcool is maybe the best in Canada and almost like MIT, Harvard, Standord all in one place. Only thing it lacking is UC Berkeley layed back hippie culture cause maybe here they working hard and not smoking dope like in Berkeley. It is beautiful place to go to school. Is far enough from large city so I can concentrating on studies and close enough to my boyfriend (he become my ex by 2nd term there) so I not feeling too alone and one my sister is also student there. Plus, most of all my parents and siblings like elder sisters and brothers not around to remind me to brushing teeth, stay on diet, studying harder, and on by the way not nice for girl to have baby before is married. My goodness I was not even 17 years old yet and my family all ready worry about me doing something not nice. I choose go to University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada because they have very good reputation and strong facualty of science and engineering but I not graduate from there. And my working field now is nanotechnology/science but that is on big hold cause need to helping my elder sisters and brothers with family business for a little while. And this posting is for my friends from UW who wanna thinking about the time there. |

I guess that makes you partially a Canadian and therefore a fellow comrade. =P Something tells me that you're the youngest though. Too bad the sweet deal was not so much of a sweet deal since you still use the Bart. But I'm sure Bart is more convenient. Canada's too cold for me too which is why I moved down. I guess you had your taste of winter in UW. I wonder if that snow day that I had happened while you were here though. I can't remember. I'm glad you had found your diagnoses for your symptom and feel all better now. I wonder if you enjoyed Waterloo or Montreal more. I personally like Montreal more because of the culture there. Oh and you do know you can't turn right on a red there right? =P In regards to these nano machines that you put into the body, I wonder how you flush them out of the body and how can you ensure that they're completely out of your body. I prefer Montreal as the better city in Canada cause is sort of like the poor man's vacation in France even though Canadian French is not really French the way the peoples in France French is. I like the way the city is laid out cause it is in fact a walking city but the cabs are also convenient and the public transportation is really nice cause it can getting you almost anywhere in the city very quickly. The downtown area has lots of nice restaurants and lots of nice places to go clubbing. But I likes the old town the best cause I like walking on the streets without the cars and on the funny stone streets. And there are lots of nice pubps where can listen to almost any kinds of the music like jazz, blues, rock, and maybe piano bar with sing along. One place I remember is close to the water front and they have the sangria by the pitcher. Is taste so good. And in the summer time Montreal has the jass festival used to be the folk or the blue grass music festival. And I like watching the fireworks over the city on the weekends and watching from top of the Mt. Royal. Is so beautiful there. There is also the casino and has the nice food and cad do a little gambling but I not too good at that so just watching. The Latin Quarter is good too but I think is worth more then a quarter so should be called the Latin Peso. You often go back to Canada for the vacation? VICKY

You have lots of sibblings that went to canadian universities.... why is that? In your earlier post where you mentioned about how you were reminising about your ex and what it could of been like, I thought you had a sound of regret. However in this post it seems like you made (or it seemed to me) a right choice. Hmm... I was in V1 during that time when your ex was there.... wonder if he lived in the same house/quad... I was on East 4 and then went to South 2. It makes me wonder though if you moved out of UW because you wanted to run away from him or if it was strictly because of school. It's okay, I moved out of a company because of a girl. But here's one thing though that you shouldn't do.... never try and do things out of spite. It's okay to eat all you want if you wanted to eat, but to eat out of spite is a problem. What program were you enrolled in at UW? I was in CS myself. Hmm.... since Tied House is just really close by to work, I might just drop by and catch a beer with ya. Besides... I get discounts there anyways =P One reason is easy for us go to school in CAnada is cause my father immigrate first to Canada so he have Canada citizenship and USA greencard but when we immigrate to USA (auntie sponsor us) we kinda keeping Canada citizenship but when turning 18 we become USA citizen except my elder citizen who is still Canada citizen I think for business reason. Oh, I not eating out of spite at all. I have hyprthyroid problem so is causing me to gaining weight and retaining lots of water but we not understand that until I am 21 years old and really stress and then asking doctor then. I just thought maybe is natural for some girl to be gain weight but I try so hard to lose weight but still gaining. VICKY

It is better have relatives for chaperones then have flakey girlfriends who fall for the same guy, right? In addition, of course the guy is going to pay for dinner for all of my cousins and aunties so it is a free meal for my family. Moreover, it also shows how generous the guy is and if he can handle my family. However, really, it is a safety measure for me until I get to know a person and my family approves of him. You know when I was 16 and just finish high school (my B’Day was only one week before or really could have been 15 years old) I thought I knew everything but I don't. Well, if I gain weight to 140 pounds again I probably will not be able to run as fast. Nevertheless, if I weight that much, then no one would want to chase me. So maybe they would not want to chase a fat butt only a cute butt. VICKY Transcribed by Dragon Dictate Checked by MS Word grammar checker. Final edit by Vicky

2007-2008 Because of family medical problem my elder sisters and brother all decide is important to helping my father this year. But I already have lots of nice offers so maybe in the summer I will start to do my research work. But I not stop looking for someone to keep me company on long journey through life. Maybe I am looking for a geeky kinda guy who can talk science to me and understanding my probems when I hit a roadblock. Like my blog saying, I just fortunate to be born this way. And looks not matter in life cause outside is gonna fade away before our eyes. But the mind if properly exercised will always stay sharp. Anyway, Thank Goodness It's Friday and I don't have to stay up late anymore this week. Next week is elder sister's turn to talk to China designers. VICKY

2007 I finish all of my studies at the UC and able to defend my work so now trying to decide if I wanna do this all my life, research in nanotechnology and biomedical field. I wanna design a nano vacume cleaner able to inject into blood stream and go looking for plaque in body. Place magnetic field in area where plaque build up and guide the nano machines there and then cutting away the plaque and reopen the passageway so not have to do the opeeration. After that happen the little nano machine get flushed out of body normal way.

Summer 2001 I got some grant money from graduate school to go to McGill University in the summer time to do some work in the biomedical program. I am lucky that summer cause a professor needing some cheap labor to just do his validation experiments but is also give me chance to meeting with other engineering students too to see what they doing. I also got a small job working at company called Zero-Knowledge not too far from the campus, easy to walking. Cause best news is doctors figure out what is wrong with me so I can start to losing the weight and the more I walking the more I looking like high school Vicky. When I go back to the UC in the fall some people surprise there is a little me inside the big me. When I go visit my sister in Waterloo I see my ex BF and he smile at me again and I thinking to myself what a shallow guy is only interest the physical and when I sick he not wanna be around me.

Spring 2000 This is when I learing that boy has an idea about what he thinking a girl should be looking like and of course I am upset so I starting eating more and then have to spending more for bigger clothes. We not know at that time is gland problem and is strange cause my normal diet should prevent the problem but it don't. So the guy one day is talking to me and not really looking at me like he did when in Catholic high school in San Francisco. I guess he kinda look shy the way he was avoiding me, the big me, but I know he was not trying to hurt me by saying he not want to see me the way I am. But you know I just said, hey, I too busy trying to keep up in my classes and my grades not too good so is best maybe I just study harder so not have time for you. And he said ok, and give him call when I am ready, but I know what he meaning by 'ready' and I know that I can never be ready cause I not know why I gain so much weight. So I grow up in the spring and realize that bf is not reason to plan life around cause maybe is only temporary situation, right? I mean if not gonna get physical until marry why guy wanna hang around chubby me. I go back after term is over to San Francisco and go to summer school at UC Berkeley and just stay there to graduate in 2001 and then planning graduate school to go to study nanotechnology more.

Winter 2000 I still studying the normal undergraduate stuff and class not a problem to me at all so just take a few extra cause you know starting to lose interest in BF or he losing interest to me. But I got the chance to looking at some projects they doing in nano lab and I hooked in this field. All I wanna do is finish fast, and I can cause already I have 2 years college and I turning 18 in the spring time. By end of the term I feeling more comfortable that I wanna go into science/engineering in nano science field.

Fall 1999 My younger elder sister is at U. Waterloo so I stay with her at Minota Hagey Residence and is nice cause lots of people smarter then me there to help me with my homework and give me insight on how best to do my classes and homework. My BF is there from California too but he is one year ahead of me and is living in Village 1 and my sister is very protective of me so nothing really happen to talk about. But campus is small and town is even smaller but it has some Asian restaurants and ice cream place. But my sister like to cook so not a problem about eating excepting I starting to gain lots of weight. Find out later I have tyroid problem so making me gaining lots of weight but now is ok after operation. Just taking the normal class for the undergraduate, not even get a chance to look at the nano science lab cause that is what I am most interest in. What, you thinking I wanna design Barbie Doll dresses?

Summer 1999 I went to Concordia University in cause I wanted to get some strong foundation in mathematics before I starting at University of Waterloo in the fall. Montreal is far from San Francisco but my elder sister is at McGill University already so I have place to stay while she go back to California visit her friends. I was just normal Chinese student getting normal grades, nothing unusual. But I love the city and the independence but kinda feel sad cause I'm only 17 and not much I can do if under 18 but that is ok cause there is chance to explore with new friends.
