Time Management.

So, yesterday.

As usual I had a ton of things scheduled. I actually finished my organic chemistry prelab the night before, so I didn't have any really urgent school work to do. xP

I bussed to school. That was awkward. It was (at least according to a group on facebook) 'sing on the bus day'. I was so excited to get on the bus and just have everyone singing. Did not happen... and I didn't want to be the only person singing... and I hadn't really prepared anything... So I was like singing really quietly............... awkward.

Physical chemistry lecture. boring.

Then I was supposed to meet up with LT for our one on one discipling time. Class had ended a bit early and LT is often a bit late, so I figured that I had time to go heat up my leftovers for lunch. It was like stir-fried vegetables and clam chowder on rice. Mmm. Ya. He arrived and we continued to try and set goals for the year. I am bad at sitting down and setting goals. Like, I see the purpose of goals, but I am terrible at setting them non-spontaneously. I say non-spontaneously because I do set goals based off of experiences and what is happening and what I want to happen.

Like, ya, so, this week was supposed to be 'the swan dive' and so I made myself available to the best of my ability for the other first year guys and stuff. I offered multiple time slots everyday of the week and told them to message me if they were able to / wanted to go with me. I did not hear back from anyone. The only time I went sharing was when me and LT ran into DP and so we went. So, I set a goal. Instead of them coming to me, which they still can, I will actively pursue them and (here's the goal) go sharing with each of the other guys in C4C by the end of the year. If that means 20 or so guys, let's go. We've got like 13 weeks next semester and a week left or so. That's plenty of time. xP (especially with only 3 labs next semester. yuss.)

Ya. So, I guess (if you can't tell) I have a lot of issues with time management, but I guess I don't really associate them with so called 'spiritual growth' goals. I guess I have in my mind divided how I live and treat myself from my relationship with God..? That, that's not really good. He is Lord of all. My life should reflect that and ya, every aspect should be worship to him. So, I guess LT challenged me to do something about my time management.

The challenge: Write down what I spend my time on for a week (or two..?) while also getting 7 hours of sleep each day (or trying to).

So, you know. I really want to do this, I suppose. I mean, it's something I really need to work on and so I want to be committed to it. So, to make sure I am committed to it I bought a notebook, a pocket-sized notebook. But not even one of those dollar store ones that I can just throw away or whatever. I bought a set of two mini Moleskine notebooks. Now I am committed. I didn't buy them just because of all the hype behind moleskines, but also because they were the smallest notebooks I could find in the bookstore and that they were expensive... T.T I am not one to buy unnessecary things, especially expensive ones. It was 8$. I am committed. lol.

So, ya. Let's see how that goes. I'm trying, like, down to the minute, but not quite that intense. Just like whenever the focus switches. I'll do a bunch of analysis later. (I like data analysis =D)

Yup. Then I got to meet up with KC again. I'm really glad I get to spend time with him and that we get to spend time reading the Bible and ya, to spend time thinking about these things. We read John 2 and did a lesson on growth and the essentialness of prayer and reading the Bible and obedience in growth. So, this week we are going to read the Bible daily before bed and hold each other accountable. He had to go to work, but it was another great meeting. I can't wait until our lesson on prayer. xP. I really want to see him praying passionately.

Umm. Organic chem lab. We watched clear liquid go from one point to another really slowly by evaporating and condensing like a million times. >.> Kinda boring, but we know what our liquids were! =D (which is the point of the experiment. Separating two liquids and determining which they were by testing them.)

Then me and NF went to Story of the Soul (after a brief chat with MC who played on worship team with NF at Getaway two years ago!). SotS was good. We watched a couple movie clips, looked at a painting and heard CW's testimony of hope in a difficult time. and JXW came! =D (even though the O-train broke down... >.>) Ya. There were a bunch of people there (I haven't heard an official count yet though. I counted 45 at the end, but people may have already left at that point).

Ya. Then 11 of us went to bubbletea in China town and played Apples to Apples in My Sweet Tea. lol. So fun. AG is hilarious and I think a lot of us hadn't actually had dinner, just sugary baked goods at SotS and bubbletea. lol.

Ya. I need to change. I don't want to be the one that makes you cry, but rather the one you can cry on.

I talked with CW for like half an hour before going to sleep. xP. I really wanted to do that like everyday the way me and DP did in EA. It's one thing I think good roommates should do. xP

Ya.

Ttyl. I've got to do my Phys chem lab now since I have work at 2... >.>

=D.Fa

PS. DS's baptism tomorrow!!!!!!! So exciting!

Watch this:



"That's upsetting"

Ya. It is.

Slavery exists today. People all over the world are forced into it and even when freed sometimes they go back because they don't have anywhere to go, or anything to do. They need a real change in their lives.

It's about more than just physical slavery, but even emotional and spiritual slavery.

But definitely even just helping them escape their physical slavery is a start, but by eternal perspectives, if you didn't just change their lives permanently, was there much of a point..? Not to be a cynic, but if you could share the good news and have their lives completely changed, coming into the knowledge that God loves them no matter what has happened to them, that He died for them and still is calling them back to himself.

I got to talk to a guy today about this event and about how him and his club can get involved. LT was also there. lol. LT is really good at telling stories. >.> In any case it seemed like God was really there and that T(?) really was thinking about what we were saying. He's going to Turkey next semester though. lol... Whatever, it was really awesome talking with him. He said that he had been to church a couple times, his parents are Buddhist and that he couldn't believe everything we told him right then, but ya, we can still pray for him. xP I still have a possible three more meetings this week with leaders to talk about the event. Exciting. xP

This event is gonna be great. Raising awareness for human trafficking and the freedom God has offered us.

Ttyl.

A late lunch

Hey guys!

Yesterday was pretty jam-packed with stuff. Phys Chem lecture, Discipleship meeting with LT, Discipleing with KC, organic chem lab, weekly meeting, and 'You had me at Bacon 2'. That is what was planned for yesterday and it mostly played out as expected, well I don't know. I didn't really expect some things either. lol

Phys chem. whatever. (lol... it's almost done. =P)

Now for Discipleship with LT I was supposed to have arranged something, sharing with a club leader or one of my friends or something. I was also supposed to have finished thinking about my goals for growing spiritually this year and starting to plan for how that can be done. I kinda lost the sheets and I didn't have time to work on it... So instead we just had a time of quiet reflection on a passage in the Bible. I read some of what I was reading earlier and it was so cool. I will post it in a separate post because it's pretty long. lol. [Click here! lol.] After that we talked about how we can reach out to clubs on campus and meet them where they are at. LT had talked to a leader of a humans rights club and he was really interested. Anyways, I sent facebook messages to the 'leaders' of M22 to see if we could meet up next week and discuss a collaborative event in January (the one about human trafficking) and they are all interested in meeting up, they are even going to talk to others and see if they want to meet up too. So, ya. I need to pray for those meetings and God working in their lives and me and LT sharing the gospel with four groups of possible like 1-6 people.

Next was a meeting with KC. I was a bit late, but it was a great meeting. KC seems really happy every time we meet. We read John 1 first (I had intended that we read 1 John 1, but this is cool too. We ended up reading 1 John later anyways. lol.) Then we went through the old-school version of the Spirit-filled life booklet. There is a lot of reading in that booklet, which is awesome. We read like a part of like half the books in the new testament. Our meeting was really great, but also a bit long. lol I had to run off to my orgo lab. I really want to see God strongly change KC and see him praying aloud with a passion.

The lab was really boring. lol. we dissolved cholesterone in ethanol then cooled it and filtered it.... lol.

I finally had my lunch at like 4:30 and watched Naruto and Shakugan no Shana 3 (which I am not telling NC about. lol.)

Then it was weekly meeting and we went through how to share again, but with more depth. Like, the Knowing God Personally booklets are cool, but they also leave a lot of room for elaboration and interactivity, so that was cool.

Then we went to RM's house for the C4C guys' night 'You had me at Bacon 2'. There was a lot of meat. lol. The chilli was awesome and the nachos were the best. lol. LT shared with us about what it means to be a man and how Jesus was not a feminine man. Authenticity, Servanthood and Initiative.

Then I got a drive home to go to sleep for 6 hours. xP

Starting Somewhere

Yo. So. Did I tell you about yesterday..? I don't remember. It is doubtful... Actually I think I did..? Or maybe that was just a text message. >.>

Ya. It was a text. lol...

Wednesday wasn't the best.

I guess I realized again how prideful I am. I ended up selfishly trusting in my knowledge of phys chem and on the equation sheet I hadn't even really spent time on... I feel confident in my not so great mark on that midterm. ya. I was feeling really crummy the rest of the day I think, except that I got to play badminton with SC and JJ eventually/breifly. xP Ya. SC says I'm way better in front when I'm mad at phys chem. >.> My whole body is sore from yesterday. xP

Umm. I didn't do much. I think I met JXW's Malaysian biochem lab partner. I couldn't quite guess which ethnicity he was... I had narrowed it down to Hong Kong or Korean, but I wasn't really confident in that guess. It was mainly his accent and face that pointed me to Hong Kong. I realized afterwards that basically every Malaysian I know has been in Canada for a very long time and goes to my church.

I ended up leading a prayer meeting. RM kinda trained me..? I have some papers to read over, but ya, we prayed for Cambodia. MM and his family are over there right now working with Mercy Medical Center and New Life Fellowship and they are seeing God do great things.

Ya. So yesterday night I did some work on my biochem lab, well actually I stayed up until 3am doing it. This was after going to my parent's and buying groceries and talking to JH. I'm praying for him. My housemates enjoy talking a lot. Often about things I don't talk about. Seriously DK..? >.<

Ya. I figured it was a way better idea to work on my lab before today rather than not. At the same time, I know that I cannot wake up early, so I decided that since CW wakes up at 8:15 I would stay awake working on it until 3 and a bit so that I get 5 hours, not more, and then get back to it before class at 10. The plan worked pretty well.

Ethers are fun to learn about. xP. Then I finished up my lab with JXW. AG wasn't feeling well today so our language exchange meeting was postponed. Today was our last biochem lab, which is sad because I haven't had much time to speak with TZ and that's like the only place I see him. The prayer meeting was awesome. So many people praying to see God work on campus and for the students to realize that God loves them and is calling them back to him. Stats was ok. I met this one guy and we talked on the bus ride home, which was cool.

JS convinced me to go to YA and I got to see RL! Yay! I miss him... text conversations leave something to be desired when you haven't seen someone for a long time.

Ummm. So ya. This morning I stumbled briefly on a bit of sin, but I was so set on sharing the gospel with JXW today that I was like 'screw you sin. you can't hold me down.' and I just asked God to forgive me and that was that. Through Jesus we have been freed from our slavery to sin. In him we have victory over sin and death. If that is what Spiritual breathing is, then I want to keep feeling this victory over sin.

Umm. Ya. Two events in the near future. The first being Story of the Soul: Hope, which I am super excited for. During the prayer meeting we decided that we want to see at least 60 people at the event and 5 people come to Christ through the event and follow-up. This isn't something we can decide, bad phrasing, but we are placing our trust in God to do great things. I also had this vision that I'd be like, inviting a lot of people. Between classes just talking up some people and inviting them, webCT messages, texts, in person, a lot of invites.

Secondly, the date has finally been decided on the sushi event that has been brewing for a week and a bit. Nov 26th we will be having sushi. I don't know how many people will be coming though, but you have to start somewhere.

Anyways, Ttyl!

Organic, Physical and Bio-

So, it's nearly Wednesday... I guess the week disappeared. lol

Monday was all about my Phys chem lab. All morning working so hard to finish that on time. Then I had a lab, prayer meeting, a break and then we got ready to go to Dundas for a pizza outreach.

There were six of us going, so we met in Oasis and prayed. You see, as part of my DG we take turns organizing and implementing an outreach. This week MW planned to go onto DB's floor in res and have pizza, have open conversation, a game or two and build friendships from there. I personally had thought that MW is kinda, like, focusing only on DB as our main first year guy. Whenever he does this I think that he's like ignoring the other guys, SM, JS, MC, etc. I think I'm not fully loving of MW. It's really cool that he's taking the initiative and building into DB so much though.

Anyways, there were a lot of people. We knocked (politely) on people's doors and when told there was free pizza they positively and in an interested tone asked 'seriously?' There were a lot of girls. We only realized that we hadn't asked any C4C girls to come with us as of, like, 30 minutes before the outreach. xP...

It was cool. We had 5 pizzas. We played mafia and some people told some stories. LT basically told the prodigal son story, but it was actually the true story of this girl he knew, what was her name again..? Burnadette? Nope. Anne. Sure, that's easier to say! lol (He didn't know. Those were the names suggested). Yup.

I'm looking forward to 'Story of the Soul: Hope' next Friday night.

Anyways, I got home from the party and had to study for my midterm in organic chemistry this morning. TJN and I studied late into the night. It was actually the first time I had seen some of the material... I missed one lecture and it was a pretty important one. >.>

This morning CW's alarm went off at 7:16. It's just the radio, but he listens to the radio really loudly, so either I wake up or lie in bed with my hands full pressure over my ears to block the noise, which is no way to sleep.

Oh! I had a dream. NM was in my dream. I was at some Banjo and Kazooie convention of some sort (mainly playing levels that don't actually exist, but that I've played in dreams before) and NM and his girlfriend show up and of course we have a giant hug and he's smiling that ridiculous smile as always. That's as much as I remember, well there was also this part about a music note I couldn't find in one level, but that's unimportant. I miss NM... He was like the first guy I met in Vancouver before going to East Asia. He has this crazy haircut that's like really long on one side of his head and short on the other. He also has rainbow shorts that are shorter than his boxers. lol..... We ran together once during Orientation.

Anyways, ya. I went to school early. TJN had invited me to audit his stats class and study for orgo. Yep. I learned a lot in that hour and a half. I'm pretty sure I aced the test.

Then I managed to get a good deal of my Biochem lab done. Then I had a bio lab and got a plant! lol. We were cutting them up last week, but now we aren't so our lab coordinator was giving them away. I have this deep set idea that my lab coordinator was the teacher for my plant bio mini program in grade 8... I don't know. maybe. I really like plants. xP.

Then I got some work done on my discussion for the Biochem lab, prayer meeting, stats class, train and bus home, massive amount of rice and one piece, Fun with Dick and Jane (which brought back good memories with my brother), and now I continue to procrastinate instead of studying for my physical chemistry midterm tomorrow. >.<

大大前天 和 大前天

Ok, I've been pretty buried in light work recently. I've also been not at home during the time I normally blog, so ya. This will be a summary..?

Thursday:
I honestly don't remember much about Thursday. >.> I'm pretty sure it was a jam packed day of classes and labs. I think I wasted a lot of time again on facebook and youtube and was really feeling guilty and upset with myself for all of the time I have wasted this week. I still had a lab report due on Friday and I really hadn't done very much of it. By this point I was hoping to have been done and able to start the next lab report which was due monday. I don't think I stayed up too late..?

Friday:
I walked to school because I had planned on not biking home. My first discipling with LT. He had bought a new camera app for his new phone. Well, he also had this really cool smart alarm clock app that measures how much you roll around while sleeping and from that tells when you are in REM, light or deep sleep and wakes you up when you are almost awake up to half an hour before your actual alarm time. It seems really cool. We started going over my personal development plan. As JW knows, I'm not always the most responsive or thoughtful person, and when it got to the question about which verse or promise you'd like to claim for the year, or which command or exhortation to keep in mind, I had nothing. I prayed about it. I had two phrases come to mind: 'feed my sheep' and 'keep in step with the Spirit'. >.< Hmmm... LT thought that the first one might have something to do about loving God more, which is definitely something I need to grow in. I really don't know why these came to mind. I hadn't read those verses in a while. I intend to reread them soon.

I then left to go to my meeting with KC. Today's lesson was about our relationship and fellowship with God. Our relationship as children of God, offered to all who believe, is not broken ever. However, unconfessed sin can break our fellowship with God. When it came to 'repentance' and the definition given being 'a change in attitude which will result in a change of action', I asked if he could give an example. He, ya, didn't think the same way I was asking the question, I meant, like based on this definition is there a 'real-life' (meaning not sin-related) example that fits it? So, I gave this example about how I use microwavable plastic containers. My housemates keep telling me how it's not healthy. My change in attitude towards the plastic containers would lead to me not using them anymore. (Fyi, my attitude to microwaveable plastic containers has not changed, so kinda a bad example, but anyways...) I'm excited to continue meeting with him and I really hope God changes him and does great things through him.

Chem lab- shorter than usual.

Then I got to help LT carry pumpkins into the C4C weekly meeting room. Then I was official greeter. !!! Two of the guys I followed up with back in the beginning of September finally came to Weekly Meeting!!! Not that this is the only way to get involved, but it's the fastest way of integrating, making new friends, seeing what C4C is about and feeling the full experience. BS and MdS! Anyways, during Weekly meeting JB gave her first talk. Later we carved pumpkins! They were really cool and it was a lot of fun. Then we smashed two of the four pumpkins because no one wanted them. We went to Loeb and stood on the roof and dropped them like two floors. XP (We cleaned it up.)

Then me and AL bussed to EE's house. She was having a movie marathon. One reason we went was actually just so that we had somewhere we could be during another video chat with our EA family. This was done mainly for MC who wasn't able to join us last time, however, she couldn't join us again. lol. I got to see PW finally!!!!!!!!!!!!! T.T Typing this right now is making me tear too... I swear, that was like the saddest moment ever (recently), leaving her alone at the hotel and bussing to the airport without really having a good goodbye... and she was crying... T.T But she was her happy, crazy, super asian self again. T.T (tears of joy) We'll need to do it again for MC and because not everyone was on at once. xP

So, in the end, at EE's I ate a pile of candy (my main meal of the day), watched part of 'Psycho' and the start of 'the Shining', video chatted in EE's room, and slept through the rest of 'The Shining'... lol... We got a drive home from AL's nocturnal (I'm exagerating) dad at like 4am.

(more summary to come later)

Vulnerable

Exploitation of Vulnerability. That is the simple definition of Human Trafficking. Whether it applies to Eastern European women being abducted and sold into the sex trade, or children sold by their parents in Cambodia, or women who earn more by being in the sex trade so they can provide for their families, it's all exploitation of their vulnerability.

Yesterday I went to a Young Adults group out in Glocester because of a facebook invite to it. They were showing a movie about human trafficking and the sex trade. It was a documentary called 'Nefarious: Merchant of Souls'. It was a very powerful movie. They interviewed many experts in the feild, they visited different countries, they interviewed victims of abduction, prostitution, they interviewed johns and traffickers, they got a very unbiased view from every perspective and it really shows how wrong it really is. Some of the statements in the movie were pretty strong. Like prostitution of women is as simple as men masturbating into a woman and nothing more. The imagery and reality of what is happening worldwide is shocking when we live in a country so separated from most of the obvious symptoms, but it's very real in North America too.

The movie kind of kept going in a negative spiral and it kept going until it got to this one point near the end and hope entered into the movie. A real life transforming hope and new life for the victims (not only the women and children, but even the men trapped in this system). God loves each and every one of us. He values us as His precious children. No matter what we have done or how far from him we have strayed, through all that He has done, He offers freedom and abundant life to all that believe in His name.

Ya, it was a really good movie and I recommend it. It also is getting me really excited for our January campaign 'iCrave Freedom' to raise awareness about human trafficking and modern day slavery.

Ya.

Today I went to the end of the month prayer meeting for the first time since June. It was good. We were mainly focused on our building search because by March we will have to find somewhere else to worship and gather, so we've been praying for God to show us where to go. This week a building on Richmond has come into our sights and so tonight we went there and prayed. It's a very warm and cozy building. It's very well kept too. The only thing is that it might be a little bit small. We can probably fit for joint services and stuff, but big meals where we invite other people too may get a bit crowded. Its definitely an interesting short-term option.

Ya.

Function and Form

So, whenever I don't blog regularly either I'm pretty busy or I'm turtling and hiding from sin issues in my life. This time it was business. Or rather, just not being at home this weekend and then being busy.

Friday. lol. Umm. Ya. Then I got to school and had things booked until Saturday at 3pm. What? Ya, Raven's Log meeting, A scheduled discipleship meeting with KC (he had errands), a lab with associated report I had to hand in and wasn't done because I slept in, Campus for Christ Weekly Meeting and then off to church. The RL meeting was short so me and TJN went to SC/RP's dorm and worked on our labs. lol. Good times. I managed to get the lab report done and get to it on time. The lab was pretty interesting. Liquid-Liquid extraction. =P Ended early, a bit. C4C Weekly Meeting was awesome. DP[not the same DP. a similar DP. lol we both went to EA, but this DP was on a different team] was there! and S(?)!?! He was in my Japanese class back in grade 12. I never really knew him very well though, so, I guess I don't actually know him. xP It's still cool.

Then we hung out in Oasis and when they were all going to McD's to get McFlurrys I was going the opposite way off to church. You see, we are still in a temporary location. Actually this March we will most likely be the very latest we can stay here. Although it's huge and has been a real blessing to have, it really is falling apart, so buying it was probably a bad idea anyways, so thanks God for not having that happen. Ya, there are a number of short term possibilities in schools or universities. There are also the two main long term possibilities now on the radar. 1. Buying a piece of land in Centrepoint and building a new church there. (The government is very very slow) 2. Buying a church building from another church who aren't able to stay in their own building at the moment. We want to ask God for his guidance, opening and closing doors and really getting us where he wants us to be, so all month we are having '30 days of prayer' for this and this weekend we were having a '24 hour prayer chain' meaning 24 hours where someone was always in the church praying for the building search. For the middle of the night shifts we just had a youth and young adult sleepover party at the church.

We played games and worshiped and skyped and watched a movie and prayed and worshiped some more and slept a little and ate muffins for breakfast. The movie was 'highschool musical China'. It was really funny. xP I had the 3:30-4am prayer shift, so when the movie finished I just did more 'late night' worship with FL and R(?). The way worship worked was that someone calls out a song and we use Ultimate Guitar to get the chords / lyrics and project it onto a large screen so that everyone could see including whoever was playing. xP So good. I got to sleep a bit. I wasn't really planning on it, but everyone else (except Z(?)) was asleep, and I was pretty tired after only getting 5 hours the night before. I got two hours from 5:15-7:15 on a cold carpeted floor. Z(?) is really nice. He gave me his hoodie and then his sleeping bag when I was super cold in the morning. >.< He's pretty mature too. and responsible.

Worship practice started at 10. I wasn't on team, lol. At 1 our worship leader study continued from where we left off in April (or maybe March..?), except that we will be going at a faster pace since reading one chapter a month would take us nearly three years... >.> Ya, it was good.

Then I bussed to school for a really bad audition. She seemed enthusiastic that I could sing though. >.>

Then I bussed home (so much harder this year and especially on the weekends), had a rather large meal and watched too much anime then apparently I passed out on my bed at 8 instead of doing my Phys Chem prelab and playing guitar as I had planned to do... I awoke at 3am to find that I had done as such. I continued to sleep until 6.

Worked a bit on my prelab then bussed to church. You have to leave an hour before church to get there with the current bus system, which is kinda annoying. But, ya, not that bad. Sunday school was good. Service was good. AL invited JC and she enjoyed it. Although it was a bit awkward sharing my Bible with her... >.<

I got a drive to work since JS and I neeeeeeeeeeeeded rice and DZ lives near there. I checked my schedule (no work this week! w00t!) and my coworker tried to pursuade me to work more since my 'replacement' isn't the best at working hard and getting things done. I did a bit of grocery shopping and in the end bought the last remaining Rooster brand bag of rice (40lbs) and bussed home with it.

I can't wait to stirfry. Hehe =P

Umm. Lunch. Prelab. One Piece. Bus to church again. Leader Study on the book of Acts. Pretty interesting. When I finally got home we had a house meeting. Very funny. lol.

I have a BIOL assignmnet due tomorrow, so Ttyl!

Sum it up!

So, guys, Summit was this weekend.

I guess I kinda kept comparing it to last year's Summit. In comparison, well it can't even be compared. I have changed so much through God's work in my life. I mean last year at Summit I was so focused on worship and couldn't even sing (which was actually humbling). I didn't really meet anyone other than the guys. I slept through a couple sessions. It was cold and there was a large competition between campuses leading to isolation rather than unity in many cases. Even through all that God really enforced that I should share the gospel with my friend KC and to just take a step in faith and share my faith for the first time with someone. So, I went for it and just asked him one day when we were walking in the halls. He accepted Christ into his life and he began an exciting new life.

He started going to church and Young Adults fellowship. He went to a discipleship group a couple times.

He began growing more distant from these things for reasons such as work or other things.

I wasn't in his classes anymore in second semester and I didn't end up seeing him very much at all the rest of the year...

We texted each other here and there, but I wasn't in Ottawa during the summer and ya... When I got the follow-up material in East Asia, I thought about going through it with him. God placed it on my heart. I know he hasn't really read very much of the Bible and has drifted from fellowship. God kept telling me to disciple him one on one.

When I got back this year I found out we had a class together! Yay! We have been talking a bit after every class. He has developed a social anxiety and has trouble with people now. This put a halt on my plans to reintegrate him into C4C or church, but reemphasized the one-on-one discipling... I was kinda scared of the idea and didn't know how to bring it up. I prayed for it semi-reluctantly, but kept pushing it off.

I was doing follow-up of people who said they'd like to meet up with someone from C4C and I was going all out and burning out. No time for KC.

Then it was Summit time again. I'm so glad I got to go and fellowship with everyone. Although I didn't know anyone from the other four campuses, everyone was warm and welcoming (there was no stupid balloon competition and the rival schools were in the same cabins as each other so there were no pranks) and it was a great weekend. The new national director spoke about Thessolonica as a world-changing community and God was there that weekend.

At the end as usual were the faith barriers and asking God to help us break them down. There were a bunch of smaller things, but I didn't know what to do. I ended up writing a huge paragraph of ways I could be more faithful than I am now and then writing a similar, but different version on the front of my Bible (I will post it seaprately). Oh, also I got to see GS grow in his walk with God and JH too. They both didn't know where they stood or what they believed, but they came to summit and I'm sure they were changed.

Anyways, one of the things I wrote down was to disciple KC. I need God's help on this. I am not a natural teacher. However, there is hope and God has given us his Spirit as helper. At summit there was this girl from Carleton who gave her testimony. Last year she wouldn't have been able to come to Summit, let alone speak in front of 100 people. She had social anxiety, but she prayed that God would heal her. She couldn't keep living the way she was. God can heal KC.

Yesterday I had class with KC. I accidentally forgot I had it and was half an hour late. >.> Way to start. After class we were talking. I had (short notice) invited him to Summit. He ended up playing video games and doing readings and staying home the whole weekend. But we ended up on the topic of the discovery groups were were having or something and he said 'I don't really know very much about the Bible, so I wouldn't have very much to say' or something and so I asked 'Well, I actually have some lessons I was thinking of going through with you, if you'd like. Do you want to?' or something and he enthusiastically said yes with a smile on his face!

Awesome!!!!! Day 1 back from summit and even though I was late to class, dying tired and pretty hungry the only conversation I had with him ended up with the discipling lessons even though I was not the one to ask him directly out of context, what he said led to it.

My God is awesome, yo.

My Friends' 'Poetry'

So, my friends/brothers DP and TL enjoy sending me long texts one word at a time.

This messes with my phone (and I will not tell you this again because I feel I have already told you and it is not a fun explaination). It usually does not recieve the messages in the correct order if sent rapidly. Also, duplicates (if I don't read the text before the same text is sent again) end up stacking into one text. TL and DP who were at the UoT Summit (more on summit in a different post) wherever that was decided to text me one text message one word at a time, but alternating who was sending it, so it got really messy and abstract.

Here is the first 'poem':
Hi This T(his name) Sunshine And D(his name)? How is? Awesome Your Toilletries :) Summit We Hung Are An At Time Our W/ Did You Shave Today? Transformers Shirts :) :) Long? :-) I Wish That Had Some Keep Warm Me :) How Is Your Chest Fur I Some to Its Here Freezing :) Is How And A(AL's name) R(RW's name) Shi Ni Ba Ba R(RW) De :) (and then they laughed quite a bit such as Ha Hahaha Ahahaha Tewehee Hehe Ha etc.)

'Poem Two':
I Tried To Shave Fur But I Have No Down South Are How Those Those Pasty Yeow!

I have no idea what they meant by that second one... There's no noun for pasty to describe... >.>

Anyways. I love TL and DP. I miss them, but we'll see each other soon enough and for eternity. They are my awesome (however sometimes ridiculously crazy) older brothers in Christ and they have impacted my life.

More stuff.

Yo, school is crazy. Have I told you that my Chem partner is NF just like last year!?! Pretty crazy. We were gonna do infared spectroscopy on our salicylic acid crystals, but the lab coordinator is 'an early bird' meaning he gets to school at like 7:30 am then leaves by 4pm. We are supposed to do that by our lab on Friday, but our schedules don't mesh well and so the only available time we have is after 4 or before class on Thursday at 8am. >.> Whatever.

Umm. My Tuesdays are basically identical to MJ's so I've been spending a lot of time with her.

Next week me and SC are playing badminton again. He says I need to remind him because he will not remember. Also, I was talking to JC and he asked if I play badminton, so I told him about my playing with SC and so next week he will be coming with us! Yay! I found out recently that he isn't 'a frosh' in the full sense. He is a first year at Carleton, but he's had a year at Brock already and had some credits transfer.

Ya. Summit! But I need to do some of next weeks work in advance...

Ttyl.

PS. A girl who came to C4C the other week who only found out about it through my roommate doing follow-up in a blue C4C shirt is in my Phys chem class. lol.

24.9.11

Where we left off.

Hey guys.

Today started off awesome. Even though I had to wake up 'early' it was well worth it. Worship practice at 10am was awesome. Starting my day the right way. Prayer, praise and worship with my brothers and sisters, and God. (I had actually only solidified the setlist last night at 1am. lol.)

The practice went really well. Like, nearly perfect.

Anyways, I got a drive home and instead of free hamburgers at RBC I had KD at home. lol. It's not jsut KD though. There were hotdogs and onions and carrots and part of a hot pepper. Then suddenly my nose was on fire..? My left nostril was on fire. It hurt quite a bit. So, I borrowed some milk and drank it, through my nose. lol.... Also ice cold water... It was kinda so painful that I couldn't even eat properly. lol. I googled 'hot pepper juice in nose' and came to the conclusion that I should borrow some yogurt. lol.

I had to run off to work. I have to bus now. lol. My first time back at work in four months. Everyone was really happy to see me. So weird being back. TM is a cashier now. The funny thing is that basically nothing had changed. I prayed that I would see one of the YA this evening and funny enough I saw ED! She had no food left, so she had to buy some groceries. She has a lot of competitions coming up so I won't be seeing her for quite a while. I'm really glad I got to run into her before she disappeared. lol

Also as I was starting work, BJ was appeared! She is visiting for a week. I got her new phone number (she has a tendency of losing or breaking her phone I think...). She's kinda drunk right now though....... lol. I missed her.

I miss my East Asian buddy that TL and I met on the first day.

Oh, also, I miss MC's laugh. I heard someone with a slightly similar laugh today. >.>

It's almost Summit!!! w00t!

PS. On the way home a really wasted guy asked for help to find his way to his friend's house. He had taken a lot of drugs and alcohol and was apparently passing out in random places...... He was supposed to be at his friend's for 5pm. It was 10:30. >.> I hope he is okay.

Oatmeal and Sodium Napthalate

So. CW is describing the way I listen to one song until I'm sick of it then going to the next one in an analogy. I'm like an alcoholic who goes from one drink to another. He is also analyzing the lyrics and assuming I 100% relate to them. In David Choi's Uneasy he says 'he drives a better car, he's better looking than me' the song is basically about him being jealous of his girlfriend's friends who are male and CW thought that I was threatened by DZ and his BMW stealing 'my love interest'. All hypothetical though. CW keeps dissing all of David Choi's songs saying they are all cheesy love songs and that David Choi has no guts if he's just gonna avoid his ex (Re: Won't Even Start).

Anyways, last night I finally had to go buy groceries since I was all out of food and ya... I got out of my stats class early. So I bussed to work and bought groceries for an hour. lol. Only 50$ though! 5 big bags of food and only one cent of tax (on the bags. >.>) Then I got a drive home and signed up for SUMMIT using CW's credit card. lol I still don't have a credit card. No big deal.

Ya. My prelab was super long. I was up until 2 and woke up at 7 to finish it at like 8:30. Then I finished my Biol prelab and Biol assignment, which although both are way more simple than the Orgo Chem prelab, they were still making me stress a bit.

Everything worked out really well though, so no problem. I'm a bit tired, but it's a new day. lol.

I had oatmeal for breakfast, but I packed a lunch! So, that's good. lol.

Ttyl.

D.Fa

PS. I got a call back..? o.0 I thought they were going to call me on Monday. They called me during phys chem and since I have caller ID now it showed 'Carleton Sexual Assault Services' since I had that number on my phone for frosh week and it's all extensions from one central Carleton number.

12.9.11

Excited again!

Hey D.Fa! Don't ever forget that God is amazing and answers prayers!

When you ask him of things he will answer! When you ask for things in accordance with his will, he will give them to you! When you seek first his kingdom and righteousness he will provide everything else! When you don't know what to do, trust in him and trust in him to guide you!

I wanted to help out more at C4C this year and have God use me. Suddenly I'm doing so much more without even really asking to. I get to do some follow-up for the survey campaign contest. I get to lead worship for tomorrow's prayer meeting. I get to see all my friends from last year and still be their friends as if nothing happened to separate us during the summer. I get to come back and be changed and be used to change others. I'm so thankful for the people I have met this week, for the people around me, for everything really.

Today I had two lectures and a tutorial. All my profs are pretty zany. (except my stats prof) My classes are gonna be awesome this year! I just need to stay on track and everything will work out.

I'm glad I got to spend some time with KC and help him out with his prelab. I hope and pray that God would be working in his life. I saw that he signed up for a DG, so I really hope that he comes out to those and really participates and that God changes him too.

God doesn't just take sinners and leave them the way they are. Although he loves them for who they are, he doesn't love our sin. He payed for our sin through Jesus' death on the cross, but just as Jesus was raised again to new life, so must we be transformed to a new life and grow into the person we were meant to be. It's exciting.

Today we were calling some people for follow up. I got 10 guys. I called like 5, set up 3 meetings, emailed the rest, probably not much there, but really, there are almost 100 first year guys who are interested in meeting up with us for a brief chat about God or Spiritual questions. I pray that God would really be using us in the little time we have and change other lives.

God is awesome.

Peace.

Getting Back on Track

Hey. Today, or rather this weekend I hope to do all my prelabs for the coming week. I have done none today. First I had a large helping of No Name Quick Oats which I bought 2.25kg of the other day. I also have a kilo of sugar, so I should be okay. After breakfast we went to the Food Court on 2nd floor University Centre on campus for follow-up training and data entry. There are so many people interested in meeting up with us again! It's so exciting! And I get to help! Both scary and very exciting. I can't wait to meet these people and talk with them. I'm kinda worried that my schedule will kill any free time I have though, so I may not end up being able to help very much... We had pizza for lunch. Don't ask about the last four pieces. I don't know what happened to them. >.> I put them down at the bus station then chased after a bus. Anyways, I bussed a really long way around the city to get to worship practice.

[I just realized I wasn't finished posting this. lol]

Worship practice was really good. It was me, AL's brother AL, PE and NE on worship team. We went through the songs quickly and went home early. They drove me home. Then I was going to go play tennis with my brother. JS had asked if he could borrow my racket. It wasn't home yet, so I made Kraft Dinner for supper. I ran off to tennis. I thought the courts were way closer than they are... We played. It was a lot of fun. I went to my parents'. Ate ice cream and got a drive home with leftovers. xP I need to go buy some food...

First Frosh Finale


Hey guys!

Super crazy week this one has been!

Saturday 8am-5pm

We were on campus moving half of the students into residence. It was a really great time of getting to interact more with my team and getting to work together with the other facilitators. The main thing that made me think was just how much of a great service it is having all the facils helping move people into res. You pull up in a minivan packed to the egdes with bags, boxes, clothes, books, etc. with just you, and your parents. The task of moving in might take a while. 5 minutes later you are done. How? The 20 facils that grabbed a box moved it all in one trip! All of them with smiles and a desire to help welcome you and give a hand. I really enjoyed this day and just getting to see all the excited first year students got me really pumped!

Sunday 8am-1am

Repeat of yesterday. I wore different shoes because I got blisters from my converses. lol. By the end of the day everyone starts getting really tired. There was a meal for off campus frosh and we got to meet them for a bit although a bunch didn't end up participating in most of the week. At 7 or something Ravenpalooza happened. It was like a pep rally and there was also Second City doing improv and sketch comedy. After that was the much video dance! I got to meet a couple frosh and patrolled around the room. The dance was really fun. We also walked people home, either to res or their cars or a little further. Safety precautions. I was dead tired when I got home. I got a drive home which is awesome because it started pouring. lol

Monday 8am-2am

Roundup the frosh by pounding on their doors and chanting Slinky cheers! We got to meet and talk to our frosh for the first time. Asian guy with super British accent, what?! It doesn't work in my head. I think he's impersonating a Beatle. >.> Umm. A workshop and a play. Also at the same time we were scrambling to move in the last 500 students into the new incomplete res building. Then we all went off to the canal and had canal games! Fun carnival style games pitting team against team. Always included a cheer off and then we'd switch stations and do it again. Games included inflatable obstacle courses, a dunk tank, a real life battleship game. Then we prepared for the team dance competition. LOL. E(?) was so stressing out about our choreography. At the end of the dance was a cheer and they all did really well. All 17 teams used a different song! Except for 'Teach me how to Douggy'. >.> Then dinner time. Afterwards was CU@Night! Two dances, BINGO!, Trevor Boris, and Karaoke. It was a lot of fun too. Afterwards me and AL walked a couple engineer students most of the way home. They live a little further than me, so we walked together to my house then split ways. So tired. lol.

Tuesday 8am-11pm

Wake up! Then we all went off to that grassy area by the uncovered teepee and had a 'Spirit Roundup' where every team did a lot of cheering and there were two competitions (I think) the Burp-Off and Pudding Eating contests. Either way, afterwards we all walked along the canal down to the beaches! It was beach day! The main events were sand castle building and cheer competition, volleyball, and dodgeball. There was free redbull and other stuff too. We spent a lot of time working on our castle. We got to work right away and made an amazing sandcastle! (Ours was the only castle!!!) All the others were really good too. Umm. After we went back and had dinner. Then we rounded up the frosh and went to the concert!! Stereokid and Down with Webster! 'Whoa!' It was a lot of fun. I was in the middle of the crowd with NC and JC (same last name. lol) great concert, but Stereokid may have been better musicians.



Wednesday 6pm-11pm

Ok. Wednesday I woke up at 8 and got to work. I had to prepare for school. I hadn't bought any books or even knew where my classes were yet. I got a lot done. I went to the bookstore and I don't really remember a lot of it. lol. Then I had dinner with JC and one of his friends. Also a trombone player! Then I had to go roundup the Slinkys to go to the Expo! What is the Expo? It is where pretty much all the organizations, clubs, Societies, and campus groups get together and show the frosh what they are, give out free things and have contests. It was pretty wild. So many people in such a small space. I didn't get very much free stuff, but I got to see a bit about Foot Patrol and a number of other groups. After that was a (really bad) talent show of a couple groups from Carleton. The South Asian Alliance Dance group was okay. They won 500$ for their club. Last of the night was 'MTV's The Buried Life'. Reading this on the schedule I thought 'Oh no... MTV. This is going to be bad.' They are really cool four guys who in their own circumstances came to think about their lives and what they wanted to do before they died. They wrote a list of 100 things and started getting to work completing them. It started as a two week trip, but it got extended over and over. They also along the way decided they should help others achieve their dreams. They have helped a lot of people with a number of really cool projects. One of the things on their list was to have a television show. Eventually they signed on to MTV when they were approached, but they told them that they'd be in control of the episodes and filming and everything. So it's still a good show, just on MTV. lol.

Thursday 10am-1:30am

First day of classes! I had one lecture in the morning. Organic Chemistry with my prof is going to be awesome. No textbooks. Just the lecture slides and schedules all printed and bound into an 80$ book of things we actually need. He's a really cool prof too. I got to help JS with the current C4C outreach contest '$1000 in Change' campaign by handing out short surveys and talking to people a bit for a couple hours. Later I went to get more books. The bookstore's lines were sooooo long. Then I went home to see my mom. She has been back since Sunday morning and she is much better. She is having a bit of a vision problem, but she is mobile and eating and feeling much better. She had been off her feet for a long time though, so she's getting readjusted to walking. This is a chance to start over. She's lost a lot of weight, lost a lot of pills, is eating better. Keep praying for her. Then I got a drive to school for some follow-up training for the campaign. Then I had Stats at 6. It ended early and there was no lab that night. Then roundup for the Ravens basketball game against California. There were so many frosh that the facils were kicked out of the stands. I read the Un.Cover magazine which speaks about our cravings and how they can point to there being a source of these cravings and something that can satisfy them. We won the game! Then we went off to Alumni Park on campus to watch ToyStory3! I ended up talking with two of the frosh most of the time though even after the movie was done. One of them is from Iqaluit and has a lot of crazy stories. They both like curling and theyb talked about that for way too long. >.>



Friday 7am-11pm

First up, pancake breakfast! It was really good. I kinda slept in a bit, so I didn't do any round up. After it was time to Shine! Friday was Shine day. You see, every year Carleton University donates a large amount to Shinearama, a foundation that does Cystic Fibrosis research. Today's schedule was empty except for shining, meaning going and collecting spare change donations from people all over the city. I had chem class at 10 though, so I went to that. KG is in my phys chem class. We went to Haven to get some books. 'They are upstairs and there is no room on the shelves right now until these books are sold. Come back next week.' Kinda annoying, but the design book I was reading in the check-out line was interesting. Then I was caught by another slinky who was shining, so I helped her for a couple hours. When another slinky came and took her place I left too and did some homework. Then C4C had their first weekly meeting! I thought I was excited for the frosh I had met so far, but it was super exciting getting to meet frosh who already are ready to do ministry and join C4C in helping other students discover Jesus. Summit is at the end of the month and I really want to go! Lastly was the Closing Ceremony. There was a Shine Auction. Things were stolen from Vice-Heads and sold back to them for Shinearama donations. lol. A bunch of awards, three bands and a lot of stuff. Tympanic was really good. A latin feel, good vocals and good playing, a SAXOPHONE! They were really good. And that was it.

I got NY and AM's cell numbers. I still need to get S(?), M(?), T(?), S(?) and R(?)'s cell numbers. I have a very irrational idea that if I don't get some contact info from the frosh I met, that I will never see them again. I know they are in Prescott, but I can't just walk in. Also I feel that my schedule is hard to work with. It seems I have 8 labs every two weeks instead of the 3 from last year. >.> It's gonna be an experience, but God will be doing so much this year! I can't wait!

This was my first frosh week and it was so good. I can't wait to do it again! (if I can) I'm pretty stoked at how much God has changed me since this summer started. But now it's fall and it's time to keep changing. lol.

Ttyl.

13.4.11

The palest ink lasts longer than the sharpest memory.

So, this week I have been really encouraged.

The thing though is that I have been encouraged by the past, more specifically by things that have been written down when God was really working in the lives of the authors.

So, I was thinking and I realized I still haven't posted about my Campus for Christ Sharing Testimony from the week after Summit. So here it is. lol.

"Random Evangelism":
"My name is Dylan. I have been going to OCBC for a couple years and I have heard some things about C4C. My general impression is that everyone went out alone and just talked to as many people as possible in a quick, random evangelism.

I am usually very shy when I meet people for the first time, so talking that much with, basically, strangers really scared me, on top of which I feel I don't know enough to properly share with others. So basically, I never really shared [my faith] with anyone until these last couple weeks.

Summit and C4C in general really encouraged me and pushed me to go outside my comfort zone. There was training and I got to meet a lot of other C4C members.

After Summit was 'the plunge' where everyone was encouraged to break a faith barrier and take their faith a step further. For many first years this meant sharing the gospel with someone on campus for the first time. That is what it meant for me.

The first time, me and [SS] went to the food court. We talked about the usual way [SS] shares with others and then we prayed that God would lead us to the right person.

After praying, we turned to the person sitting right beside us. His name was [J(?)]. He was an international student and had been taking philosophy. Recently they had been thinking about the meaning of life and he was interested in speaking with us. As we went through the 'Knowing God Personally' booklet he recognized Revelation 3:20 [Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.] He said that he had seen a movie and after [SS] had inquired, it had almost definitely been "the Jesus Film". [J(?)] didn't accept Christ that day, but seemed interested in follow up.

Afterwards [SS] told me more about "the Jesus film" and how in China to see the film you have to be in a private screening with headphones. The fact that [J(?)] had seen it is amazing. God had already been working in his life.

My second attempt at sharing was on Wednesday. I again asked to see if anyone could come with me and everyone who responded was too busy. So I was left alone and was pretty frightened. I wasted like 40 minutes reading my email and blogging before I made up my mind. In an hour if I hadn't already gone sharing, I would go. I prayed that God would calm my heart, give me courage, that He would guide me to the right person and that He would give me the right words to say.

Less than 3 minutes later BC walked over and sat down with me. BC was someone I knew from highschool. We had very similar schedules throughout highschool, but we don't really talk too much. However, I had felt before that I should share with him and I felt it again.

I'm not very good at explaining things usually, but we went through the booklet and there were a lot of questions to answer. I think I managed to get most of the point across. BC had heard most of it before when I invited him to a youth outreach event. If BC hadn't shown up when he had I probably wouldn't have shared that day.

These two sharing experiences I've had since Summit have shown me a number of errors in my image of C4C sharing.

1. You are never alone. Whether you go sharing with another C4C member or not, God is there too.

2. You don't need to know every point in the Bible to share the gospel. The Holy Spirit will give you the words and the booklet gives you focus.

3. There is nothing random about it. You make an effort to set aside an hour and a half, you ask God to guide you and God will provide you with someone. [Although this point can also be expanded past a strict 1.5 hour setting into a more daily walking with God with your whole life open waiting for the opportunities God gives you. (Don't compartmentalize God!)]

4. It isn't just about getting to as many people as fast as you can. It is about having an actual conversation with another person.

2 Timothy 1:7-8 For God has not given us a Spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline. Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord... but join with me in suffering for the gospel according to the power of God."

Yep. That is it. 3 pages of graph paper written in pencil on a bus ride from home to school on a friday afternoon. God really was showing me that He does great things. Whenever we take steps in faith, He helps us along and does great things.

Ya, I thought this might encourage someone. It's hitting me. lol. I read today that the first thing Jesus said to his disciples was that they would become fishers of men, ie bringing others to Jesus. The first thing He said. If you aren't fishing, you aren't a disciple. That line also hit me.

The Past / Present / Future

So, right now I still haven't done much of the stuff I need to do immediately, but I did do one thing. I applied to be a facil next year. Then I found out there was an interview. lol...

It turns out that the interview is the same day as Getaway ends. My interview is at 5 and we get back 'around 4'... sketchy. Also, I'm now thinking, what if I haven't had a shower all weekend..? >.>

Ya, I went 'sharing' with CW today. I use quotations because it didn't really end up being too spirtual, more just talking, but that's cool. lol. I found out that KG goes to church. I should talk to him more in the future about the gospel and the spirit filled life and tell him about C4C and stuff. lol.

Also, today I went to my parents, had dinner, and went to watch my brother and a number of other people his age play Jazz in Kanata. I miss playing trombone. and yet it is still under my bed... They did pretty well.

Ya.

Ttyl. xP A day full of worship tomorrow! Awesome!

Bulk Barn Punch

TODAY!

T is for Trifle
O is for OCBC
D is for Dylan wearing a bow tie
A is for Asia
Y is for YA

So, today was pretty amazing and there is no way I can summarize into a cheesy acrostic, so I will elaborate a bit.

First was Sunday school, then church, then we played and recorded this amazing song that I will not go into detail about, but I could have played it all day I love it. lol. Then we went to McD's. I played with TONKA trucks. We went to PETAG and by peer pressure I ended up wearing a bowtie. It was a pretty sweet bowtie I'm not gonna lie.

We then went back to the church to start setting up. FYI, I am not a neatfreak, I am a freak who is neat. This is the most interesting type of person. Anyways, I swept and mopped the whole sr. parlour and then we set up tables and got the food and all that and when I got back it looked so nice. I then got to have the most fun ever serving buns to the married couples. I had to ask if the were having the fish and chips. If yes the response was 'your fries will be coming with you meal later'. If no, I was to ask if they would like a white or whole wheat bun. I played this up for a while until I got to AW and DW at that point AW was just cracking up and so I also cracked up.

Anyways, we made the salads and put the entrees on plates and made the deserts and it was a lot of fun being a waiter. I wish I was a waiter for real. It was a lot of fun.

We got pizza and leftovers for supper.

I also got a call from JC, a C4C staff in Toronto, about my project application. I don't have any medical things, so it appeared as if I had just not seen them becuase I didn't write anything, so they wanted me to verify that I had seen it by actually answering them. It was also a bit about the confidential question about purity and clarifying some stuff. The main point is I'm going to East Asia for 6 weeks on a missions trip! Yay!

Also, I recently found my testimony that I shared at a C4C weekly meeting a long time ago, in late October..? So, look forward to that.

Also, I got so many random comments about this sweater and the bowtie and my haircut today. 1 I hate the sweater. 2. It's just a bowtie. and 3. It's just a bit of hair.

Ya.
