Hey =)
Haha i seem to be in a better mood. Or I guess just happier =) Which is pretty good I think. It's been a good day. Relaxed. Hopefully there's no last minute homework that i forgot =P
Yesterday I went to Uni fair with my parents. I couldn't go with my friends or my church friends because public school people (most people =P ) went on Friday and then my school friends went today at like 8 in the morning and of course i wasn't going to miss prestudy and some good old fashion sunday service =) It turned out alright. Going with my parents. They were kind of like "go ask some more questions!" and so i guess i did. Which I guess was good. Except I realized yesterday that I'm not ready to pick. I probably don't WANT to pick =P at this moment. I'm probably not capable of making an informed choice either because i haven't taken all the 3 sciences. But i'll get to that point =P where i'll be informed enough. But it was a good experience. Kind of far going downtown. And was tired by the end of it but altogether, it was good =)
Today was another Sunday. You know how Sundays can be kind of long =P Today wasn't a bad kind of long. it was long. But it felt good =) And despite the fact that i should be really tired, i'm not. Strangely =) It's crazy. Maybe because it was just so full of energy. I loved it =) So this morning I got to church and I made the snacks, did AV and sat through Driven. The message...was one that I guess to be honest was a little strange partly because i missed the rest of the road signs series. And I kind of wanted to hear Lou's continuation but still it was good. A little refresher I guess from what I already knew or what I've already been taught.
Afterwards, I experienced a piece of true fellowship. sadly i had to miss sunday school. But I think it was good. Having that time. of vulnerabillity with one another and i learned something about myself today. Rather not learned something but rather, it felt like he was going through almost the same things i had gone through. To some degree. And I realized that I had thought i was over her a lot of times. And sometimes it results to the fact that i'm not. When I see her on Fridays and Sundays. But I realized that maybe it's not as distressing as I thought. That maybe God's teaching me something through the experience. That He's letting me use it right now even as a way to encourage others because i've walked down that path. I'm STILL walking down that path. But God has His ways.
I was reading about Saul/Paul and all of Acts for the past couple of days. It's a pretty epic adventure. It's like crazy just how the Spirit works. And one of the big things that hit me was that Paul was put in prison for 3 years while was like waiting to appeal to Caesar I think. It's crazy. THREE years. None of it's in the bible. They just said it was 3 years. And i'm pretty sure in those 3 years it might've had it's ups and downs and maybe a lot of joyous moments happened in there and at the same time maybe there was pain but after that, so much more happened. So God's plan is AMAZING. it's also huge. and spannning through like...SO many years =)
And afterwards we had some lunching with a couple of k-cab people =) It was alright. Just talking about some school stuff and u-fair. Nice chilling time =) Prestudy was pretty good. First prestudy of the year and we brought up some really good points. And I really like the end how a lot of people shared. Just made me so honored because it means that God's really bonding us through Tuesdays and just in general. I'm so excited to be with these people =) It's just amazing.
And then AFTER that our awesome cell group except calvin because he was at u-fair went into a room planned out what our schedule is for this friday. We talked about how we weren't quite sure about the talking level of our cell group but Brian was totally like "it was only the first week" and it's so true. We can't already judge them like that. And so we figured out the way we're going to execute it. It sounds awesome. Nat Tay and Brian are so awesome =) Calvin is too. Cept i haven't been able to plan and talk with him. So we have a schedule planned out =) Not following the original guideline fully. We didn't really get some of the parts so...we cut them out =P but the main message is the same =) So I guess this week i have to be just that much more aware of how God's moving in my life. and to meet Him there. excited =) for bible study.
And then being a GM and not feeling like going home to an empty house, I decided to stay at church and clean up the old basement. Use some tetris skills, clean up the storage room and stuff. So i hope it looks better. I certainly hope it does. Threw out some papers. Recycled that crazy Arizona bottle that Simon can't clean up =P. Made the stage look cleaner and just tried to tidy stuff up in general. It looks better i think. Or at least Nat told me so =P During that, Nat and PY were having their good ole accountability time. By the time i finished cleaning up, they had just about finished. So we kind of chilled together =P
They were supposed to write their blog but it ended up that we all kind of jammed and just had fun. Singing some old school songs like "from the earth to the grave from the grave to the sky" haha forgot the name =P but it was just pretty great. I ended up going home like....4 hours later than i had expected but that's alright. It was some great times =)
So i'm excited for the school week =) PTL =)
