31st (Monday)
Myle a sweetheart this morning. Liked my hair short
Told me she bought only one pair of shoes in Seattle,
& asked if I'd ever worn the T-shirt from Hong Kong
she bought me. 'That's what it's for.' Bought her a
couple of smoothies from Joyeaux. Long talk with
Heather, & Vesna, on the phone. 'You're so funny!'

Girl from Brazil, an english student, comes up to me,
above the Canada Line pit. A sheet of paper with 18
questions, do we use 'colour' or 'color'? What animal is
this? - 'A buffalo.' Quite amusing actually. Ady called
tonight from Africa, followed a minute later by Vesna
Sunny, but still very chilly

Myle very charming this morning. Talked about how it was her

Masters this afternoon won by Immelman. Talked to Belraj for
about 20 minutes this morning at 7-Eleven, as she quickly
dispensed with one customer after another. Late this
afternoon walked across Burrard Bridge with Vesna. Tea
outside at Starbucks, Cornwall in sunshine which was milky
cool
