Frisbee, CF Cell, StAG, Grantchester Walk.

Yup, the events since my last post.

Frisbee
Went for frisbee after saturday lectures. Was a good workout. Had to change sides and start behind the goal everytime there one team scores, so we ran at least 30 laps back and forth the playing field. Cos there were at least 30 goals. It's very pleasent to exercise here in Cambridge, the weather is so cool and dry, you hardly sweat. So I could continue with my day after the straneous exercise without changing my clothes whatsoever. Went back to Darwin with Ben to collect the keyboard from Lesheng for cell after.

CF Cell
Was alright, had a good meal, with curry chicken and lots of vegetables. The portion of vegetables I ate that night was comparable to the kind of portions I have back home. Had songs to the tune of a keyboard, and had bible study. Sharing was good cos it helps to unload whatever concerns are on the mind. Also took up some one off responsibilites: Going to help with preparing dinner tomorrow for CCCF meeting. Gotta meet Charles at 1630 outside Sains. I am quite worried about commiting to responsibilities, so this is a simple one to begin with.

StAG Service
On Romans13 on the subject of subordination to authority, don't feel it is particularly applicable at the moment. Still enjoying the music at church. Gathered for a walk to somewhere supposedly scenic, called Grantchester, after the service. The group broke up and adjourned to the residences various church members for lunch, then met up at parkers piece for the walk. It is so interesting living in a small town, the experience of everyone living within close proximity of each other, and being able to make such arrangements.

Grantchester Walk
Grantchester is along the river Cam, south of the heart of Cambridge. Met a few people along the walk. Chatted for most of the walk with Silva, a 2nd year Physics PhD student from Robinson, from Switzerland. Share a lot of things in common: he was from the swiss army, in charged of communications the equivallent of our signaller, talked about our army experiences, quite interesting to see what common in armies across the globe. Also talked physics. A random fact I took away from the conversation: fractals are of non-interger dimensions, how is that possible??

Also met the people I first saw when I visited in June. Angelia and one other guy, cant remember his name :S. Walked back with him, and since he was a mathmo, I had quite a fulfilling conversation with him. Told me about how run down the math faculty was like before moving to the new location. Also found out that the river Cam flows from South to North, not from 'top' to 'bottom' as seen on the map. And saw one of the floodgates controlling the water level of the river. And learnt of the occurances of the river Cam bursting it's banks.

Returned to room, tried doing some work, but knocked out due to fatigue. Had dinner hosted by Hong King at Queens, now in room and now trying to study, but obviously distracted by blogging.
