Isn't fall lovely?

Had a chance to relax a little today and went for a walk around campus with CY to take some pictures of the Fall season. This is my favorite season of the year. It's comfortable enough to walk around without having to bundle myself in thick, bulky, suffocating winter coat that makes me look like a sack of potatoes and not warm enough to make me sweat after 10 minutes of walk. The scenery is also very breath-taking and makes me stop to remember that life is beautiful if we just take some time, pause from our busy schedule to appreciate what we've been blessed with. I also loves to see the colors of the leaves change from red to orange then to yellow and finally brown before they fall off. The picture above was taken from a bridge looking down to Red Cedar River, a river that runs across MSU, separating into the north campus and south campus. It’s a really beautiful addition to the campus but unfortunately, the pollution level of the river is beyond repair.

After the walk, we went for lunch at Ria Restaurant, a new Chinese restaurant in Lansing that also serves Malaysian food. I ordered Char Kuey Teow which amazed me that it was close to home but unfortunately, my appetite disappeared halfway through as it was too oily. CY ordered nasi lemak and it was really good! I might actually get that the next time.

We went to watch Saw II after lunch. It was short but I would give it a rating of only about 2/5. It was gruesome and kept me in suspense but I still like Stigmata better. I then intended to get a winter coat after the movie but I ended up buying two sweaters, a vest and a top which I don't need. Not forgetting, a GameBoy Advance game, A Series of Unfortunate Events. But since I haven't shop for 3 months or so, I think it is acceptable right?? :P

Oh my Goodness!

Your university is so much more natural :)

Chalmers is smacked in the middle of the city ;) Nothing like yours :) No river no nothing :)

UTP has a jungle in the middle of the campus... As a matter of fact, I dare not venture beyond those woods :)
