This has been a great few months. Stanford, New York and now Toronto.

The last few days has been great just catching up on rest and taking it easy. Staying with the Boersma's has been so relaxing. Since I arrived here several days ago I've been just vegging out and hanging out with Sih-Ee and Nate. It's been really nice.

So work starts on Tuesday and alot of work to do before my first day. If this were Ian2005 he'd be panicking but the last couple of years has taught me to take it easy and take one thing at a time. The bliss of growing up. Either that or plain ignorance.

The last couple of months has only reinforced the things I love about life. Family, friends and the need to be motivated and challenged in my work. I always feel grateful for the things I have and over the last couple of months I only feel more lucky. I only feel blessed because I have the support of the people I love.

So hello to all my pals in France, USA, Canada, Spain, Mexico and back home! Take care and see you guys soon.

Heya how's everyone been doing? I haven't written in awhile because there's been so much going on the last couple of weeks. The exams are on Thursday and by Sunday I'll be leaving Stanford. I haven't had the chance to take photos on campus but I will and you'll see why it is the most beautiful campus in North America.

Just when I was getting used to the laid-back life I realized there's tons to do. After spending some time here I decided it might be good to do a PhD in Psychology, so been practicing the GRE exams, finding more about schools, meeting professors and students. After my trip to New York I set up a meeting with the Dean of the PhD program at Berkeley so I'm really stoked and I will need to prepare for that.

As usual job applications, travel arrangements to new york, getting ready for my internship in Canada. The summer is officially over people!

It's been great here so I hope I get some time to enjoy, and I'll see you guys soon.
