Yo.
It's been a couple days, eh? Ya. It has been. lol.
It was a couple days where I didn't get back home until like 12.
Friday there was no Alpha course at night so I told FB we should do something. He had been sick all week, so it was a long time. We went to Costco and then back to his house. He made spaghetti and we watched Bleach. lol. Filler episodes. >.> Then we ended up watching Superbad. The trailers made it look way better than it actually was. The last five minutes were okay though. lol. I don't think too many people cared, but the moral of the story seemed to be that you shouldn't do all this stupid stuff to impress the girl. Just be yourself. But that kinda gets lost among all the highschool drunkenness and cops who should never have received badges. >.> Not recommended.
So I got home late. lol. Sleep. Immediately.
Next morning. Saturday. Wake up at 7. Picked up at 8 and away we go. Alpha camp weekend. xP Drove like 20 minutes away, a small town called Aberdeen. Apparently, a couple who had been going to SCAC had moved out there and opened a restaurant which also has a large room suitable for us. We watched three sessions with two group discussion times. It was really good. YF asked a bunch of good questions and we really discussed the work of the Holy Spirit. It's a little funny how cultural norms are just different. Like I would feel awkward having a conversation about each of our thoughts on premarrital sex, but not our group. lol... But ya. Good talks about the Holy Spirit.
At lunch I got to meet this group of guys that I thought were all in highschool. Nope. All in University. We went bowling after. This 19 year old killed it. He got like 158. lol. it was fun.
Later that night we were going to go for KTV with some of the others that hadn't come with us. So we chilled around downtown for a bit. Art gallery. Chase a rainbow. Dinner at a vietnamese restaurant.
KTV was good. I learned so much Chinese. lolll
Today was pretty standard. Well, for me anyways. lol. I read a lot of awesome things, but I'll save it for tomorrow.
Ttyl.

lol KTV. I can only sing English songs >_> and I'm using the word 'sing' verrry loosely
ReplyDeleteHaha. Well, in my church here we have trilingual worship, so I am often singing about God's love in Mandarin. lol. It's not too far off to sing cheesy love songs. lol. I'm also pretty good at cheating off of other people singing to get melody and lyrics which can apply to songs that I don't know in English or other languages.
DeleteMy rough estimates were that I could read and say 40% of the characters, read and know what 20% of them meant, and then be able to write in simplified 10%. But those are probably high estimates. lol
That's pretty good, considering that I can probably recognize around 35%, read and know about 30%, writing in simplified comes and goes according to when I am in the school year (summer vacay is a lot point =P), and I've been taking courses for two years now.
