The last week... East Asia Night, Cuban Party and Running in the Rain

Yes, once again, it's been a fabulous week!

Last weekend we attended the East Asia night which was organized by our friends from Singapore. We had such a good time! The evening began with a demonstration of crafts... and yes, we did try everything! Then, we had a delicious dinner in the dinning hall which was so well decorated that it was beyond normal recognition! The Chairman of the East Asia week, Dr. H., and his team did a fabulous job! We were also seated at the head table with the director of our college and the Warden of our residence. Yes, we were honorary Singaporeans for the night! It was so much fun!

Then, that same evening... off we were to our neighbors Engagement Party. He is originally from Cuba and she is from Ireland. It was quite a party indeed. The Cuban music and salsa dancing were all part of the evening. It sure was fun!

The rest of the week was monopolized by the library... but that's ok... I'm quite enjoying studying! Then, yesterday Greg and I went for a fabulous hour long run in Regent's Park. When we left the College, the sun was shinning and I wore shorts and t-shirt... but then, the clouds came out... the wind picked up and it pored rain! Typical London weather! Then, just when we set foot in our flat... of course, the sun comes out again! Really, we can't be complaining about the weather... it's been georgeous the past couple of days... averaging 10 degree celsius almost everyday! Either way, there is nothing that I love more than running in the rain!

This weekend we plan on attending our College's multi-cultural evening... it sounds rather promising and tonight off we are to a play organized by our College... which should be tons of fun! Although, I do desperately need to get out of Mecklenburgh Square! There is so much going on at the College... that it is sometimes difficult to venture out for fear of missing another exciting event!

Below are some pictures of the East Asia evening...

A friend of ours wrote: "Mr. and Mrs. Koster" in Chinese!


Throughout the evening there were musical performances given by College members...
