Started with a very frustrated morning. First, I couldn't pray. No matter how hard I tried, I simply couldn't pray. It was agonizing. I even skipped the Bible reading this time...which is pretty bad. Then more frustration as I tried to read this paper in preparation for supervisor meeting...I simply couldn't understand it. Then even more frustration as I was totally lost in the matroid class. So that wasn't a good start to the day... It got better, I guess, with a lunch with C&O people, a super quick supervisor meeting that wasn't entirely terrible, 2 hours of dinner preparation, 5 people enjoying it, and xbox with projector. I enjoyed the dinner and games, even though I hardly play any video games, really. I suck at tennis, but somehow I beat Li Zhen in hockey...who knew... Anyway, nice to have some "bonding" time...

What is forgiveness?

Strange weather it has been...cloudy with rain off and on...cool temperature, like around 13 as a high... Meanwhile, it's around 30 degrees near Vancouver, record high temperature...
