I never thought I’d say this but

Summer in UK is hot!!

Before I came, I was thinking ah, my long sleeve shirts can tahan cold anot… where’s the best place to buy windbreaker… whether to bring scarf and fingerless gloves…

And those considerations prove to be valid for the past 2 weeks.
Yup I’ve arrived in Sheffield for 2 weeks now.
Weather is cooling on average days, chilly with wind. But today…. =.=
Please gimme back the weather under 18°C, and cool wind if u must have sun. 28°C with no aircond or even fan feel stuffy inside the room. Air is STILL despite window is open.
(window can only be open inwards maximum for about 15°) Needa get a fan soon…

Am still exhausted from party on Fri night (kinda lousy) and trip to Cambridge on Saturday. Love the cool wind and the old architecture there. There are many cobble streets and bicycles and ancient colleges and churches…
Cambridge students’ accommodations are those buildings that look centuries old…but I think inside have been renovated. If I were to live in that city, I’d feel all scholarly and smart too lol. Just that I’d be annoyed with too many tourists xD

looking very tired after only 3 hours of sleep

Met Simon during the lunch break =)

a miniature version of a castle

didn't manage to fully capture the entire castle though.
was too near

a corner of a college, which we're not supposed to be allowed into

Most of the churches and colleges either does not allow visitors, or require an expensive ticket per entrance. So we decided to take the punting ride to visit 7 colleges along the river Cam, and also the infamous Bridge of Sigh and the Mathematical Bridge.

Punting is a boat ride rowed by someone using a long stick.
Ok that’s not a very good description but ah, you get the picture.

The guy (this one below) rowing my boat wasn’t very careful, kept on splashing water on my back >.<

but Simon group’s boat was rowed by a hot guy lol. I think he heard my friends squealing from above bout how handsome he is, then he immediately rolled up his sleeves and looked up at us lol.

and this scene was captured by my friend.

Lol. He must have understood what lengzhai means and immediately responded.

ducks that avoid the punts

"that's Charles Darwin's house!" said the punter

That's Mathematical Bridge. Wiki for more info. I did, but lazy write here lol.

Bridge of Sigh. Named after the one in Venice.

Rumored to have got its name from the sighs of those pre-exam students who passed by this bridge on their way to exam.

Not many pictures taken 'cause my camera battery died halfway during the punting ride =.="
Been taking pics using ky's camera since. lol. ky faster upload!
Other pics are taken and tagged by friends in facebook, so can be viewed there.

Sleepy.
Tomorrow group discussion at 11am. Suppose to lead the discussion. But haven't really read new case study. Dai wok.
but never mind, sleep first then wake up earlier. haha.

(Don't know since when it started, but I seem to get more and more relaxed when it comes to deadlines... can't say it's due to over confidence. Maybe 'cause i'm already immuned.)

Anyway, good night! =)
