Ok, so.
This morning I woke up. There were empty beer bottles all over the place. Honestly... they were not there when I went to sleep... 0.o Where did they come from..? Apparently there was a "social gathering" last night at my house after I went to sleep. Unfourtunately for RL who had stayed up playing video games, they were too loud, so RL couldn't go to sleep until 4 am.
We both woke up at like 8. We didn't have to leave until like 10. He was going to go back to sleep, but I persuaded him not to. I mean, you feel more tired if you go back to sleep. In this free time RL learned how to tie a tie from google / youtube. He was going to be Tae Yang for Halloween. He had a dress shirt, a vest and a tie and everything.
KC came to OCBC today. That was cool. Being worship leader for the first time was cool. J(?) from my DG was also at church. He's in the Asian Christian Fellowship thing that DZ is in. He was also with this other guy which I thought was very familiar. He is in my MATH class and I was so sure he was that I talked to him. So, that's cool. Another asian friend! AND he's christian! score. xP I will work on that. I will soon have 3.5 asian friends in my MATH class.
Anyways. After church we missed the 95 barely, so we took the 96. We ended up at PineCrest station or something like halfway to kanata..... I had to be at work in half an hour at that point. We managed to take the 96 back to Queensway then the 86. KC lives near St. Laurent which made me wonder why we met at Baseline. That's a long way to go just to go halfway back.
So, like. It is possible for me to complain about a lot of things and it is also possible for me to brag, but I don't want to be that kind of person while at the same time I kinda want to. Do you ever feel like you want to do something, but you don't want to at the same time..? I think I inheirited the ability to complain from my dad. He will often complain about the smallest things... Like once there were, at most, like 5 pencil crayons slightly spead out on the living room floor. Or once there was rolling thunder and he thought that the furnace was making those noises. Actually my dad almost always / maybe half of the time thinks that noises are coming from our furnace when they are almost always not.
Anyways... Pumkin Spice Dougnuts are tasty and about a month from Dec 31 2099 I will be 108 years old.

Oh. Snow. Oh No!
So, ya...
Today I seemed to have done some work. Not nearly as much as I had hoped to, but it's a start I guess. I'm almost done my BIOL lab... xP......... That means I still have all of my CHEM lab, a BIOL quiz, my PHYS lab and hopefully some CHEM readings to do.
Anyways, today worship practice was interesting. I was 'leading' and it's gonna be my first time tommorow. So, ya........ xP
Then we had a worship leader study.
Then we had 'Saturate' which is our monthly night of worship for all YF / YA. SB and MM shared a testimony with us. I didn't actually really get to talk with MM, but I don't know what I would say...
So, this is the point where I would type up that testimony I had lost and then found, but I have once again misplaced it... xP
Anyways. When AL first invited me to YF, we did this 'Alpha Course' and MM and SB were my group leaders. MM has been a missionary in Cambodia on and off for a long time, so right after Alpha he went back to Cambodia and I havn't seen him since.
You know, a lot has happened in the last couple years. I noticed today. Especially when Pastor DB said "Dylan's going to be a discipler!"
Since grade 10, I have gone from knowing pretty much nothing about faith and christianity, to the Alpha course at YF, to going to church, to joining the worship team, to graduating to YA, to being baptised, to sharing the gospel with stangers, to being worship leader, to helping someone accept christ, to becoming a discipler. "Can you believe that quiet kid is now singing on the worship team?" It's like I've gone from knowing nothing to being able to teach others. While still actually not knowing anything. There's a lot more for me to learn, a lot more for me to surrender to christ.
A couple of weeks ago I was thinking "Whoa. in like two years or something I'll be leading a DG like TM or RM. That's so soon!"
Apparently that's not soon enough.
God does crazy things sometimes.
Anyways, it snowed. !!!! It's winter TT.TT so sad... now I should probably wear a coat / get shoes that are meant to be worn in cold/wet weather.

"Toothless!"
So, hey.
I am now laughing at something that has happened in my house.
So, there is only one shower in our house and five guys. This is often problematic in the morning. So, I would have a shower and then eat breakfast and then brush my teeth. However there would often be someone having a shower, so I would be unable to brush my teeth. Ewww.
So the other day it hit me. Why not put my toothbrush in the other bathroom..? I would never have to wait for someone to get out of the shower.
So I moved my toothbrush.
Yesterday I noticed a second toothbrush in the other bathroom.
Today there is a third.
It's just funny. XP.
You'd think that after living here for a while you'd have already thought of this.
lol.

Have You Ever IV
Have you ever stayed up until 1:30 playing guitar when you know that you have to be at school for 8:30..?
I deffinately didn't have to stay up that late. I just wanted to make sure the setlist was done by today so that everyone could figure out the keys or whatever.
A reason that I stayed up so late was that I needed to see which key I was going to be singing each of the songs in... I don't really know how to transpose... XP I know how to transpose when I'm not the melody, I just sing harmony in whatever key they are singing in. And I know how to transpose on paper or when I play bass I can sight transpose, but I don't know what key I was singing in...
So I mostly just sang for a few hours... XP... I also learned a few chords for guitar.
So, ya... I almost decided to skip CHEM again. It's just so easy... You get 2 more hours of sleep, all the CHEM lectures are video taped and I was going to be late anyways...
I wasn't late actually.

1 John 4:19
Hey.
I could not wake up again.... I didn't get out of bed until like 7:20. xP
Pro-tip: Oatmeal is a very fast meal to make. This is especially true when there is a kettle in your house. You can put the kettle on and do other things in that time, which is very short, and then eat oatmeal.
So, on the bus this morning I scrambled to read a text book and write down equations. I then went to my PHYS tutorial a couple minutes late and did my midterm (pretty easy, but I just don't understand elevator problems...). In the remaining two hours of my class time I went to Loeb Cafe and did some more Worship related things. Yesterday AH and VS were at our house and we watch "How to Train Your Dragon" (It is still very good) and talked and played ping-pong.
Apparently VS has difficulty singing without adding twang to the song. If she ever became a singer, it would have to be country music. She even does this in church apparently.
In an attempt to find songs for this weekend I have been asking people what their favourite worship songs are. I also looked for the song VS supposedly (as in I may have heard incorrectly..?) twangs to. It's cool. It's actually really cool.
So, ya. I only have like 3 of the 5 songs for Worship right now.... but all this time just listening to music, reading lyrics, singing to myself, praying, reading the bible in search of 'call to worship' passages, etc. has been really cool.
Anyways. I talked to KC today. We had MATH class together then we went to a med school workshop on applications, then we walked for a bit and I shared with him. We didn't sit down anywhere, we just walked through the tunnels. People were going by, it was echo-y and it seemed to me to be ... idk. xP. It was cool. It was kinda like sharing in front of a bunch of people. Everytime someone went by I'd be saying 'Jesus' or 'faith' or something.
I won't be going to Sunday school this weekend. I'm meeting KC at Baseline station around 10.
I should thank you guys for your prayers.
Thank you.
I should thank God too.
Oh heavenly Father, Lord, I thank you for just being in my life, that I may know you, that I can sing your praises. Lord, I thank you for pushing me outside my comfort zones and Lord, I thank you for sending your son to pay our debts. We could never pay them ourselves, no matter what we did and by your mercy, grace and justice we have been freed from our slavery and brought into a relationship with you. Lord, I thank you that you can work through me and through all your children to reach out and bring other brothers and sisters back to you. Lord, it isn't by our strength that we can bring others to you. It's not by our works that we can save others. It's not by our words that their hearts are changed. It is all because of your power and love for us that we can live a life in which we can know you personally. Lord, I pray for KC that he would grow and that you could show him more than I could ever tell him. Lord I pray that in everything I do it is for your glory. Lord. Thank you.
Anyways. Ya, I should be working on this set list / cleaning the kitchen / making supper..? / idk.

Follow-Through
So, hey.
It is 5 minutes until my 'FILM test' and ya, I don't really care about this. xP... I keep hearing it was really easy and I did study, so it shouldn't be that bad, right?
Anyways... I never got around to sharing per se... At 4:30 I went and walked around looking for someone to share with. I kept thinking "No, I only want to talk to one person", "Oh, they look busy...", "Hmmm..... maybe not them..." or other stuff.
I kept walking around and I ran into YA nad RM in the food court. I do feel like I should share with YA eventually, so I stopped and hung out with him. I don't really talk to RM very much, so it's kinda awkward being around him... xP They went home on a bus. So I lost half an hour.
So, I went walking around again and I ran into BC. Literally. Almost. I was walking around a corner downstairs in the Unicentre and he was also doing the same but in the opposite direction. I hung out with him for like an hour. I invited him to this C4C thing on Friday. It seems that Friday nights is abad time for C4C events because there is usually a party of some sort, especially because it is Halloween on Sunday.
So, ya..... It was an hour until my test when BC went to his Music midterm.... Not really very much time... So I went to the building of my class and was going to talk to someone there, but there was no one alone or not busy. Just people cramming for the FILM test.

Today has been really cool so far.
Except for that whole waking up and getting to school thing, but ya... xP
Atomic Bonding Theory is pretty cool. Physics is boring. Meiosis is the same as it's always been.
Aside from that I've been trying to do something about the set list for Worship this week. I'm going to be leading for the first time...... I just don't know what to choose. Every song AL chose last week is a song I could have chosen. I know that doesn't matter. >.>
So, I've been listening to worship songs all day and aside from the previously mentioned reason there are a couple other reasons. On Monday at work S(L?) asked if I knew of a band called "Seventh Day Slumber" and she said I should listen to them. Also, I have been meaning to make a Worship playlist. xP (And you Have to keep promises you make to your blog, yo.)
The last few times I tried making a playlist it wouldn't save, so I lost the playlist and I hate recreating things....
So, ya. I decided to add one or two songs at a time to make sure it saves and to have a playlist in existance.
I also don't know whether AW will be playing guitar or piano. Neither are really a favourable choice if I intend to play a new song this week...
Anyways, I've been 'studing' for my 'FILM test' and not really doing much... I intend to go sharing today. MB forgot and RM is busy...... I may end up going alone, but I might go with CW. Either way, I want to make sure I go. By 4:30 I will go. For sure!
I found this song while I was on youtube. I started at 7th Day Slumber and following the suggested videos I ended up here. Kinda like the wikipedia game, but about 3-4 minutes between each click... >.> So, ya. A Million Miles by MercyMe:

I'm Pretty Sure That Busses Suck.
So, ya.
I left the house half an hour later than usual today. This happened because I just could not stay out of bed....... I kept sleeping 10 more minutes for like and hour.... XP...
Then I decided that I should make lunch. So I did. It looks really funny.... XP... A sandwich and a giant carrot in a ziplock container.
Anyways, normally I take the bus that is two busses early so that I get there like half an hour before I have to. Ie. I would still get there on time, if it were not for the bus being nonexistant and so I was forced to take the later bus..........
Ya. I'm gonna be late. Grrrrr.
Whatever. At least I'm not skipping (which I could do because the lectures are recorded.)
so. Ya...
I don't understand pomegranates. They just don't make sense to me. How would such a weird 'fruit' ever come into existance..?

Before BIOL
Hey.
So, I felt like biking to school today. So I did. It took longer than last time, but I didn't go the same way. I went along Viewmount until Fisher instead of just going on Meadowlands. I saw Mr. RT biking to school...... xP.......
Right by Bethel an older lady waiting at the bus stop asked me if I had the time. She had apparently forgotten her watch at home. It was 7:33. I thought that I would be at school very close to that time.
My legs hurt. xP
I've also finished blog stalking JB and now I have nothing to do in my free time...
I should get going soon...
So, yesterday I had school until 1 and 4-11 I had work, but yesterday was also the day of the Mayoral elections, so I had to vote at some point. I went on the way home. It was my first time actually voting. "You know how a Scantron works?" So, I have voted, but I have not driven. Should that not be how it works..?
So, ya. My DG (Discipleship Group) was last night 6:30-8 or something. I couldn't go... >.> At like 5 or so I heard "Dylan to the Bakery. Dylan to the Bakery". RM (my DG leader) had come to say hi and breifly talk about what was going to happen in DG and stuff. That is pretty cool I think. (He does live just across the street from work, but whatever. xP)

Have You Ever III..?
Have you ever voted without knowing anything about who you were voting for..?
Well, I kinda just did... XP....
I had really only heard anything about the mayoral candidates from my parents and my brother. I only knew that no one likes the current mayor, the Andrew Hayden (who named the park) had some plan for busses and that my parents were both voting the same way...
I knew nothing about the councillors or the trustees...
xP.... Whatever... It's one vote.

The Leaves Win!!!
So, hey.
Today was cool.
I had church this morning then we went 'leafing', in other words we raked leaves for some people who live by the church.
I may be too much of a perfectionist sometimes and possibly also too mechanical when I do things. So JS, RL, R(?), AL, DZ and JC are working on the front yards of two houses. I worked on this one house's back / side yards. I made like 10 piles of leaves. We didn't have enough bags for it.... xP It took like 3 bags for most of it...
There were like 7 bags of leaves for that one house. (She probably needs 2 more. xP So fun.)
We had pizza before leafing.
When I got home I was gonna do some homework, but there was lots of time and I was almost done a book, so I decided to read it. Around 4:30, 3 guys walk into my house. None of them were my housemates, which just happened to not be home, so I had to fend off a gang of beatniks which were searching to swipe a free meal off some sucker who forgot to lock their front door. I used my super ninja skills that I learned from my former teenage genius slash secret agent friend JB and pwn'd them all.
They had called for back-up, so it ended up being 8:15 when I was done with them all. RL just walked in the door completely unaware of the gangster war that had happened in our house moments ago.
Anyways, if you are unknowledgeable about sarcasm or wild stories, there is a blog you should read entitled "Sometimes Logic Eludes Me" located here: http://juliebainard.blogspot.com/. It is written by JB and I am almost done reading all the old posts. I only habe 10 more posts until I get to the current posts. A number of posts deal with the unimaginable happening to a seemingly average Carleton student and her wild McDonald, Smartfood, Coke and nap-taking addictions.
Speaking of naps... After I had finished reading that book, which I finished reading in my room because the piles of unconcious gangsters all over the first level were in the way, I kinda fell asleep by accident. I awoke an hour and a half later and could no longer hear anyone downstairs, so it turned out really well, until I fell asleep before going downstairs... In the end, I woke up 4 hours after I fell asleep... I kinda have some stuff due Tuesday.......
Me and RL are gonna watch OP at 9, so I havn't watched any anime yet today. I increased the anime toll to 4 chapters per episode because three chapters was getting to be too easy now that I only have 4.5 series that I am watching, so I only have to read like 2 chapters a day to watch 3 of them and I always read at least 1 chapter so it's not that bad. At the same time anime is no longer taking over my life, so I don't think increasing it any further would really accomplish more change. It would just stop anime altogether and I wouldn't be reading any more than one chapter anymore.
So, ya. I've had a lot of candy in the last couple days. xP...
I'll ttyl.

PS. I really thought Singapore was somewhere near Italy for a really long time and I will still say it even though I know it isn't. In other words, Singapore is so cool no matter where it is on a map!
Today was cool.
I had church this morning then we went 'leafing', in other words we raked leaves for some people who live by the church.
I may be too much of a perfectionist sometimes and possibly also too mechanical when I do things. So JS, RL, R(?), AL, DZ and JC are working on the front yards of two houses. I worked on this one house's back / side yards. I made like 10 piles of leaves. We didn't have enough bags for it.... xP It took like 3 bags for most of it...
There were like 7 bags of leaves for that one house. (She probably needs 2 more. xP So fun.)
We had pizza before leafing.
When I got home I was gonna do some homework, but there was lots of time and I was almost done a book, so I decided to read it. Around 4:30, 3 guys walk into my house. None of them were my housemates, which just happened to not be home, so I had to fend off a gang of beatniks which were searching to swipe a free meal off some sucker who forgot to lock their front door. I used my super ninja skills that I learned from my former teenage genius slash secret agent friend JB and pwn'd them all.
They had called for back-up, so it ended up being 8:15 when I was done with them all. RL just walked in the door completely unaware of the gangster war that had happened in our house moments ago.

Of Bikes and Midterms.
So,
These last couple days have been up and down. Up and down mount Tiverton to be exact. It seems that my posting has been procrastinated by a series of more pressing matters / unfourtunate circumstances. I either have tried to start blogging and my laptop kinda restarted or I really had to study for my CHEM midterm... but in my free time while I should be studying Friday I biked to school after bussing home for lunch.
So, ya.
Yesterday was the first time I'd biked anywhere in like 7 years or something.
1. It is true, you never forget how to ride a bike.
2. You don't get any better at riding a bike by not riding one for 7 years.
3. Your legs really hurt after riding a bike to school after not biking for 7 years.
4. I'm still not good at going up hills on a bike.
5. Riding a bike on the roads is soooo scary.
6. It's kinda cold. My head and hands were kinda cold after biking.
7. I still am really scared of taking my hands off the handles.
8. My parents didn't like the fact that I had biked without a helmet.
9. My mom bought me a helmet.
10. I have a bike lock so that I don't have my bike stolen again.
11. It's like being able to 'drive' a two-wheeled car without a license.
I actually just went to buy milk. With my bike it takes like a couple minutes. xP
So, ya. Friday I had CHEM at 8:30-9:30, PHYS 10:30-11:30, a CHEM tutorial 11:30-12:30 and a CHEM midterm 6:30-8:00. Some people studied in every spare moment they had. I just cannot study on the day of tests/exams. I just can't. So, I went home at like 2 so I could eat something before the midterm. I decided to bike back. I actually had the chain get off the gears like a block from my house... xP After that everything was cool... except the hill and the fast cars flying by me.... xP
Anyways, the midterm was okay. Short answers had a lot of random stuff because our prof is really into atmospheric chemistry, but other than that everything was okay. Just before we started the proctor was like "If any of you has a cell phone on your person, you are currently in violation of the standards for exam writing. If this is the case, please stand up, walk to the back of the room and put them in your bags quietly." Half the room stood up.
After the midterm I went to CW's and we hung out. We had pasta, played Forza (I completely failed at it...... I could not go like 20 seconds without crashing and I was always spinning..... xP...) and just talked with JS and DK. They talk about really weird things.... xP
I biked home and got home at like 12. I did not go home the same way I went to school though. I went around by Viewmount on the way back. xP Much flatter.
This morning I woke up at like 11, read a book for a bit, finished rewatching 'Amelie' and then I went to my parents' for lunch (and other reasons like getting the rake for tommorow and getting new glasses, but a large reason was the free food. xP)
I probably have stuff to do, but just chilling once in a while is okay, right?
Did I mention the 'worship potluck' on Thursday for YA..? Again I failed at bringing anything, but some of the other stuff they shared was really cool and I helped sing the songs CW was playing on guitar although everyone was kinda.... >.>
JS was saying how he feels that we are his brothers / sisters. Like really I think of RL as a little brother and CW as a big brother. I havn't really been missing my parents or brother too much... I know that sounds bad, but I guess it might be because a) I do see them every once in a while and b) I have another family, the church. It really should be all one family... >.>
Anyways, this is my new favourite song at the moment. I enjoy whistling to it in a really high pitch. xP

Tae Yang Imposter
So, ya.
I just got home.
My housemate RL is having his hair cut at the moment.
He's had Justin Beiber hair for a long while and he is now getting his hair cut like Tae Yang from Big Bang which is quite a difference. Like a good number of inches of hair.
*snicker*
[I have yet to look at it directly though. I find the situation very funny. I also anticipated that if I told him that I wasn't looking at it that he would try to get it within my feild of vision. lol. He did.]

that I know, even a vague knowledge of them.
So, ya. I don't see why girls need to wear make-up... Whenever a friend of mine wears make-up when they usually don't it kinda... it's like it's not them. It's like they are trying to be something else, someone else, but I don't know why... I like them for who they are, not what colour their eye shadow is.
My chem lab partner, NF, the asian(xP), goes to EACO. He didn't know about C4C.
Sometimes we often take for granted the things we see all the time or the things that go without recognition.
It is the combination of a great many little things that makes a big thing, so you should payvmore attention / thank God for it.

Sadistic S_____
in Amelie's life have wound up in and how she ends up helping them in very round-about, often very hilarious, premeditated schemes because she was never very good at interacting with people.
I couldn't pay attention to anything but the movie. In FILM class you're not really supposed to watch the movies, but rather you're supposed to view the techniques implemented in the film. I watched the movie. I enjoyed the movie. I laughed out loud. I almost cried.
The narration is very funny.
Anyways, I sat with P(?) today instead of J(?). I saw him and, honestly based on my first impression of him, wanted to be his friend [so I kinda ditched J(?)... xP I felt bad about that...]. But I'm so bad at small talk... XP...
I saw my prof today. Usually I am far enough away that I don't see him clearly, so I saw him and his hair and his nose and I thought 'bird'.
I don't know... XP....
So, ya. I don't have work on Sunday. I'm going 'leafing' with the YA.
I want more friends.
I hate being alone in a crowd... Just being with someone else... Anyone else

When I moved I thought that I should apply at FarmBoy aka in front of my house. I havn't...] I even found my old one and havn't taken the time to update it.... I am just living my life as it comes to me, never really trying to shape my own future...
xP... My chemistry lab partner saw my hair for the first time today. Honestly, this haircut is awesome. Absolutely everyone at work has complimented it, even though I have never had a full conversation with them... My haircut has led to many conversations about C4C, many of which have either led to me saying that I am christian and etc. or them saying how they didn't know C4C was at Carleton, and really, I just like not having to worry about hair, although I really need to shave....... I don't know if I'm going to do the neard or not... I seriously couldn't go outside while I had it and I deffinately couldn't go to work with it...

Kindness Always Propagates.
So, ya.
I just watched this really uplifting movie in FILM. Like, it is just a really cool movie. It is super funny, very ... I don't even know how to describe it, but I fell really good now. [The name of the movie was Amelie btw.]
Yesterday I was in a terrible mood.
Sometimes I get in this mood where I question what I am doing and how I think. Like I got really fed up with work for no good reason. I felt that just because I had a shift Sunday night that I should quit my job. I felt that work is taking away all my time with my YA friends when really I spend all my free time with them...
I felt that I should tell my boss that I didn't want to work Sundays anymore, which is true, but at the same time there are never enough people to work on Sundays, so I didn't request that... Then I thought "why do I never stand up for myself..? Is it wrong to be selfish..? Is it really being selfish to not want to work 20 hours each week..?
When I am at work, far too many thoughts go through my head.
When I am at work, all my energy

Totemo Samui Da Yo! / とてもさむいだよ！
So, when I woke up, it was pretty cold. The shower was nice and warm, but afterwards I was so cold.... XP.... I sat down on my bed and looked at my blankets. "Aw. My blankets are so warm.... But I have things that I have to do now (like eat cheesecake. XP)... I can't do anything if I'm wearing a blanket... ... No. I am not going to get a Snuggie... That is too ridiculous." So I went and ate breakfast.
Also, I just rode a bus for 10 minutes because I was too cold and couln't wait for the 117... So now I am waiting for it at Fisher...
So, ya...

Do You Ever II
Do you ever try to wake up early and end up sleeping in..?
This is often the case for me, except not usually quite to the extent expressed on the question. Usually if I have to be somewhere I will plan to wake up an hour earlier, plus 20 minutes for changing clothes, 20 minutes for a shower, 20 minutes for breakfast and if I have something else to do even earlier.
So I have class at 8:30 every morning so I wake up at about 6:30 every morning.... However, I have to print some stuff, so I woke up at about 5:15... I didn't get out of bed until 6:15, according to my alarm clock.
My clock is actually set 10 minutes fast, but there was a reason for that. I thought that seeing a later time would make me hurry, which it did... For a while. Then when I saw it I'd be like "it can't actually be that late can it..? Nah. It's 10 minutes fast. I can sleep in."
So, ya... Not very helpful anymore and if I changed it back, I would be late for everything...
