Last week

Posted on November 25th, 2007 by Sacha Chua

And if you’re wondering what happened last week and why I hadn’t
gotten around to writing a weekly review – my mom was in town for my
convocation! =D She flew into Toronto on Thursday with Tita Gay, a
family friend. They attended my convocation on Friday morning, saw the
UToronto lab and IBM at 120 Bloor East, and met about two dozen of my
favorite favorite favorite people in Canada. She flew out on Sunday,
which was far too early according to everyone concerned, but such is
life. I’m looking forward to seeing her and my dad and my sister again
soon!
