Moved to Wolfville, NS in September and have been busy since then. I am teaching 4 days a week now, which is quite a change compared to my life of doing research everyday for the past 6 years. Still struggling with it, but hopefully it will become easier. Today, I finally got around to applying for a local plate for my car. This is probably the last step of my move. I have gotten a local driver's license, a local heath card, a local insurance policy, etc. Now with this last step done, it seems permanant. So here is the town I am living in, a college town with a population of 3000, excluding 3000 students.168 days ago
After all these years, I finally received my PhD. I can be called "Dr. Wang" now! Not as excited as I thought I would be. But it is definitely something worth celebrating. Check out my hooding video here: https://sites.google.com/site/yingleiw/convocation489 days ago
Today when I came to school, I found I couldn't use my card to enter the PhD area where my office is. Phoebe told me months ago that this would happen. By default, a card becomes invalid after 5 years in the program. OK, I got the message. Just get it done and move on. This place has had enough of me and vice versa.

It is nice to drive with windows down. Saw a guy drive a Porsche convertible today on the road. That must be fun.
