Today's Commemoration Day... when wherever you go in Imperial you'll see proud graduates in their robes and gowns and some higher-ups wearing their Elizabethan-era courtsmen's caps. Most other departments let the students have a day off. But not for the biologists. Bah. It was only an hour-long lecture anyway.
I had an hour before the next activity on my timetable... so I went with Xi to the Natural History Museum. The BG Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2004 exhibition was just launched a few days ago. It's hailed as the most prestigious wildlife photography compeition in the world, and so undoubtedly the quality of the winners' photos would be of the best of the best. Since Imperial students can get in free of charge, I think I might visit the exhibition again. Just one look at each photo isn't enough. They are that beautiful.
At noontime... we were to hold the introductory meeting for this year's Major Event (for SingSoc). Only four freshers came. The rest were second-years. Disappointing, to say the least, but it was kinda expected. I'm confident that these four would pull their friends in. Gotta get more people for the main committee... I'm gonna be chairing this event with Lionel as the Vice, and we'll need all the help we can get. Last year, they had Flaggellah... the making of the agar-agar jelly flag mosaic which set a Guinness World Record. Well this time we're going for what they did in 2003 - "The RaRa Show" - a talentime involving the Singapore societies from the other London colleges. I can see a whole loadpile of work coming this way.
Prac reports and SingSoc matters aside, I'm back to my old habit of late-night gaming. Got hold of Unreal Tournament 2004 from some Virgin Megastore (some megastore... I couldn't find the new Operation FlashPoint release) in Camden a couple of weeks ago... Lu installed it on his (new) laptop and ran on crack, so we've been playing multiplayer on LAN. Fun!
