Life in Cambridge

Came back to Cambridge on the 29th of Sept for my second year. It has been a couple of hectic weeks ever since.
Took Qantas here, and was thoroughly bored to death. There is no entertainment on demand and even the service and the food was lousy. I miss SQ.

1 Oct 2006 (Sunday)
Went for Matriculation dinner. Met my college kids - Neranjana and Guy, and the juniors from Singapore. There are so many of them this year!

2 Oct 2006 (Monday)
Corpus Mayball meeting.

3 and 4 Oct 2006 (Tues, Wed)
Hung out at the freshers' fair manning a couple of stores and talking to everyone.
Joined a couple of societies too. Am motivated to be more enthusiastic this year.

7 Oct 2006 (Sat)
CUMSA Freshers' Squash - met even more people.

8 Oct 2006 (Sun)
CUMAS Freshers' Squash - haha...now I am a loyal member of CUMAS.

11 OCt 2006 (Wed)
Sidney Formal with Vanessa, Jac, Michelle, and a few other people. Food was great and the formal only cost 5 pounds!

15 Oct 2006 (Sun)
Dinner at Nandos with Yaoyu and Aloysius.
Went to Funkyard - music wasn't great at the beginning and the place was overbooked, but it got better towards the end and I quite enjoyed myself.

17 Oct 2006 (Tues)
Freshers' Formal at Pembroke - 4 courses!
The food was quite nice, so was the company. But this formal was super tame, no one got drunk, no one was pennied. So unlike last year's, which I didn't attend though.

20 Oct 2006 (Fri)
Preethi's Deepavali celebration party.
She made an indian cuisine which I can't remember what it is called, but it was sweet and very delicious. There were random people, whom she had invited coming into and going out of her room. =)

21 Oct 2006 (Sat)
Oxbridge Games at Oxford.
Took the bus at 10am to oxford and the whole journey was 2.5 hours long. Won netball 18-0 but lost pretty much the rest of the sports.

Oxford is pretty much like Cambridge in terms of the colleges, but it is a much bigger town, more urban and less eccentric than here I suppose. But I do prefer Cambrdige. haha.
