For example if somebody scribbles a series of short, straight horizontal lines, that signifies he is a reliable person or someone who draws rising stairs has got qualities of leadership. So we wanted to find out the meaning of our doodles, which was quite interesting. We also learnt that you can find some German words like Schadenfreude or Angst in the English dictionary and the English people know and use them. That’s really astonishing.
Moreover we had a discussion about the surveillance state or better known as Big Brother State, which has become an increasinglyimportant topic. Did you know that in Cambridge you are filmed 200 times a day? That’s a bit concerning, isn’t it?
In the afternoon our teachers offered us the opportunity to go to Ely. Ely is a medieval village with a giant church and it took an important role in the Middle Ages. The students who visited Ely told me that it was full of tourists and unfortunately you had to pay in order to see the whole inside of the church.
Other students that didn’t participate in this trip enjoyed their leisure time. The weather was brilliant, it was certainly one of the hottest days in these two weeks. So I could go to the city and relax and I went shopping while enjoying the sunshine. Besides all this, a few of us played some sport, they went to play squash.
In the evening I went to a club with some friends and we partied. I like the clubs in Cambridge very much; they are so amazing because each of them has got its special style, something for everybody’s taste. Some of the students also went to a pub and had some nice conversations there, some of them went bowling and others just spent the time with their host families. On the whole it was a great day!
