There are nearly 10,000 different kinds of plants at UBC Botanical Garden. UBC Botanical Garden consists of two main gardens called North Garden and Asian Garden. The Moon Gate and Tunnel connect the two gardens. One of the special parts of North Garden is the Food Garden. The volunteers (also known as Friends of the Garden) harvest vegetables and fruits and donate the food to local charities.
Greenheart Canopy walkway, which is located in Asian Garden, makes the garden even more fantastic. The 17.5 metre high and 308 metre long walkway helps people enjoy the beauty of nature while walking along the canopy track. Also, the garden provides information for all the plants, which is great for people who want to learn the science of botany at a closer level.
So the day before I went into surgery in November, I walked across the stage a second time at UBC. This time, I was picking up my master's degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering. It took me four years of part time work, and it was a real struggle, so walking across the stage finally was a big relief -- I was so happy it was finally over. I had a pre-surgery eye exam about an hour before the ceremony, and they were forced to dilate my eyes for some of the tests. So after four years, I couldn't even really see the ceremony I had worked so hard attend. I had to get someone to help me find my place in line since I couldn't read any of the paper work, and I basically had to follow the blob ahead of me and hope they were leading me in the right direction.
When I got home that night, I dropped my degree in the corner of my room and went to sleep so I could wake up and head to St. Paul's for 8am. I basically forgot that it was on the floor in my room for the last few months until my dad mentioned to me today that I really should hang it up. Since I was at UBC already, my dad offered to pay for a frame from the bookstore so I could finally put it up on my wall and get it off the floor.
So, after more than two months, here it is, finally framed.
That is the Sitka building in the background. This park was created a few years ago during the construction of the Sitka building.
