Hello everyone,
Stanford is SIMPLY AMAZING. Everyone is so happy to be here, and everyone is very laid back. ISO was fun, of course, and overall there is this whole super positive vibe about the school.
The weather in Palo Alto is quite similar to Singapore weather except that it is more extreme. For instance, it can get to about 16 degrees at night and it can go beyond 30 degrees when it's very hot (like now). But the weather is great relative to all the other US people and the whole positive vibe here is just amazing.
I havent gotten used to the food yet though, been eating hamburgers and hot dogs for my meals, but I know there is Chinese food at some dorms so I dont think it will be that bad. Of course, the portions of food are huge.
As a sidenote, everyone here is all so friendly and helpful, and they all greet you with such a big smile that you feel quite overwhelmed at times at their friendliness. When you try to jaywalk, all the cars on both sides of the road will stop just to let you cross.
Oh yes, the campus is VERY VERY BIG. It is known to be the most beautiful campus in the world and the 2nd largest campus too (the largest being some campus in Russia). It's full of greenery everywhere, trees and such, and yes, people bike all over the place.
Come to Stanford! :D You will be hard pressed to find another place where everyone is just so enthusiastic about their school.
