New face of Birmingham-Lovely sunny weather...

Now there are new topics for interaction for the past couple of days.

Guess what, it is all about the lovely sunny weather.

“What a lovely day!”

“Let’s enjoy the good weather.”

“Let’s have picnic by the lake.”

“Oh mine!  Let us go for a walk.”

“I will be going out without a jacket on.”

“Ok, let me get my sun cream, it has been ages since I’ve seen it.”

These present some new lines of interactions. For the past couple of days, the weather has changed drastically perhaps for a good one.

It is sunny, one can dress pretty casual, and of course have picnic around the lake of the uni.

Now my counts for not wearing jacket to the city centre have increased. Let us start, one, two, three, four, five ; ok I think today is the sixth time. This is how interesting it is to have a lovely sunny weather. We hope this will last for long. Fingers crossed. I love today’s weather!

Term 2 in Aston

After a busy and fulfilling term 2, we had a break for three weeks. The holiday was an interesting one especially during the Easter seasons. I joined the Stations of the Cross from St Michael to St Chad’s Cathedral. With songs and prayers, with the catholic community here in Birmingham, we walked through the city center to the cathedral where we had our final service for the day. There was social gathering in one of the halls at the cathedral where we had time to chart with lovely people from various parishes.

Interestingly, the city center was less busy during the season, which to some extent symbolises the solemnity of the period. In the evenings, there were social events in the city one could attend.

One may not have the holidays entirely free. I may sometimes have to sleep with one eye opened, thus not too much fun. Why? Deadlines are due just upon resumption. No extensions unless for exceptional cases . Sometimes, one may feel quite nervous when the days are getting closer to the deadlines. The available resources and the supports, however, give hope.

The vacation as a whole was interesting.   Meeting up with friends for couple of hours helps to relax for the academic work.
