Response

I have recently been shown how blogging because "you have to" produces unsatisfactory posts. This may be one of them. You cannot post an in depth post, which clearly states what you think when you are trying to compose it between classes or in a couple spare minutes.

Sometimes I end up not fully explaining my thoughts, or not being clear enough with context or other seemingly important information. I also sometimes blog as though you know everything I am talking about.

I also admit that I have problems with pride sometimes.

Don't listen to your feelings. Trust in and have faith in the truths that have been revealed in Jesus and the Bible.

I fail so much. Honestly. And yet I still have this stupid pride.

Also, I don't really think about things or have a purpose for what I am doing. Yesterday I was asked "Why do you go to YA?" and I really had nothing to say. All I know is that I like YA and 7-10 Thursday night YA is more important to me than almost anything. I don't think about why I am going, but I want to.

Is it really pride..? What if I genuenly want to help out in any way I can if someone needs help..? Is it about pleasing people..?

A number of people have said a number of very significant statements to me recently (usually through email or other textual media) and I really don't know how to think about it or what to do about it.

I feel really bad about not being able to help out. I feel really bad about having blogged certain comments with implications I did not intend. I feel like I am a terrible role model for KC.

.................................

O heavenly Father, you are perfect and powerful and mighty and can do absolutely everything. I am not. You are just and faithful and above all creation. I am not. Lord, you took away my sin, you paid for them all. While we were still your enemies, while I was still unborn, you died on the cross for my sins and the sins of the whole world forever because you loved us so. This unconditional, unending, unimaginable love you possess is indescribably amazing. Lord, I have fallen to sinful actions and sinful attitudes. I'm sorry for feeling that I should be better than KC. All of us, your children, are all equal in your sight. Lord, I'm sorry. I know that when we confess our sins to you, you forgive us and purify us from all unrighteousness. Lord reveal to me all my sin that I can confess them. Lord, I don't live the way I should. Lord, help me rely in your strength and power and not my own because I will fail on my own. Lord, I need a new attitude.

Help me.

I have spent far too long on a bus today................... This is my third bus ride and I may have 2 more...... Lame.

Rice Deficit

So, hey. Whats up..? nm..? me either... xP...

I seem to answer "what's up?" based on how busy I am at the moment compared to other times, but I usually am only asked that question when I am between things, like I just got to Loeb cafe and I'm not going to work on the pile of homework for like half an hour, so I'm not doing much right now, even though I have a lot to do, like studying for a CHEM midterm. >.>

Ya. I am a yes person. I will almost always agree to do something if I am asked to. I always have a busy schedule and I will just try to fit more in. I always can. Usually by taking something 'less important' out, such as sleeping a couple more hours or unintentionally taking out a meal or taking out all my textbook readings... xP or I will just do work on the bus instead of relaxing for 20 minutes. I've just become used to this constant unprepared last-second finish for everything. It seems to work out, but only to a satisfactory degree.

I really hate focusing on one thing. I'd rather have a tiny bit of a million things... >.>

Today someone asked me if I was excited for christmas. I responded "not really" and he was all like "Isn't this your time of year..?"
1. It's Movember. not even near christmas.
2. I hate how comercial it is.
3. You don't get excited just at Christmas. You should always be excited that Christ died to forgive your sins and give you freedom from sin.
But ya... it felt funny. That conversation.

Yesterday I went out for supper with my parents for my dad's birthday. We went to "Siam Kitchen" and my parents ordered way too much... xP So when we were going to leave, they packed it all up into doggy bags and said "Oh, we'll give you rice" with a smile. I only opened the bag today. There were 3 big plates and 2 smaller bowl-like containers. There were 4 dishes and then rice, but when they say "o, we'll give you rice", you would think there would be enough for the stuff we were taking. I did not. I mean there was so much stuff left and there was not room for all the rice we would need in the bag they gave us.

Was there enough rice..? No. Not at all. One of the small containers had rice in them. That was not even enough for the other small container of stuff. Luckily JR had some rice, so he gave me some and I gave him some stuff. Free leftovers are pretty good. Especially if it's asian food. xP Yum.

Ya... I'm in Math class. I am not following our prof at all........ Integration doesn't make sense in my mind... xP...

Agape

So, I was reading "God's Smuggler" the other day and there was this amazing story.

In Rumania Brother Andrew was going around to churches and giving them Bibles. He asked where a church was and they said they wouldn't speak the same language to which he replied that Christians all speak a language he called 'agape'.

Later he had managed to find an undergriund church and got to speak with a couple people. They couldn't speak the same language though, but then he saw a bible on the desk and had this idea.

They had a conversation for over half an hour by pointing out whole verses. The part of the coversation that was in the book seemed really cool.

Back at the hotel or wherever the person said they had looked up what 'agape' was and found no language, just that it was the greek word for love.

Clearly I have done a poor job of telling the story, so you should just read it yourselves. XP...

Deadline

So, ya.

I havn't blogged a couple days.

Mostly because of the large amount if things due today: formal bio lab, bio prelab, chem lab, chem prelab, phys assignment, phys pre class quiz, ... Wasn't there something else..? I feel like there was some more...

Anyways, I did most of it before Sunday (I thought) and only left the Bio lab and chem prelab to finish. They took much longer then expected. Oh! I also had a math test ( I didn't study, I think I aced it).

So yesterday I had work. 4-11. Lame. So most of the work was done at like 8, so I went home for dinner so that I could focus on homework when I got home.

At 1:30 I could not stay awake so I slept some hours. At 5:30 I actually woke up and did some work with smaller chores in between. I was still working on the bus there. I was still working at 8:22.

My last bio lab was at 8:35. The class mated with each other. Then we looked at garlic cells. No more waking up at 7 on Tuesdays! Yuss!

Sharing.

So, ya.

I was walking from CHEM to PHYS and I don't know why, but I felt like I should go sharing. Clearly I would have to go by myself. Soooo scary...

Literally I walked from southam to the food court to loeb cafe to the food court then finally I was like "ok. Just do it. You saw that guy in the terminal. Do it." So I went up to him, introduced myself and he had a paper he had to write. So I was like "just do it. You saw JC (not the same one) in the food court. Go do it." so I went back to the food court. JC was watching anime. XP.... I talked with him a bit about anime and then I was waiting until the episode of Bakuman was done before talking to him, but it turns out that he had a bio lab that was due on friday to get done, so I left him to it.

I don't know why, but it actually feels easier to approach strangers than people I already know...

Maybe I am scared of changing the image I have in people's minds. That shouldn't matter. Pleasing people or pleasing God. Clear answer.

Cliff Hangers are lame, but Spoilers are worse!

So, Ya..

I am in the middle of trying to get a lot of things accomplished, but I have decided that I will take a 30 minute break after every 2 hours of 'getting things done'. I have spent the 30 minutes reading "God's Smugglers" and it is a really slice of life kind of book, while at the same time it is based on Brother Andrew's life and he was / is a missionary, so his life is not as normal as most slice of life genre'd media, however, it still feels really slice of life. xP

Anyways, I just finished a break. He just proposed to a girl and will hear her answer after he gets back from Hungary in a month. Cliff hanger much..? Uggg. I want to read so badly right now. >.>

Anyways...... I will try to get more accomplished.

Skill Yo! / Have You Ever VI..?

Have you ever had a skill that you thought would never be useful to you, but then you almost win a sweet prize with it..?

You see, last year I developed this skill with a certain JC during/before a 'Once Upon A Matress' rehearsal.

This skill is the ability to catch projectile M&Ms in my mouth. I am quite skilled at this very specific task.

Last night at C4C weekly meeting I was in a competition to win a 50$ gift certificate to Baton Rouge in Toronto (where WC is) and the first round was catching M&Ms. I caught 8 of 10.

The second round was a slightly different game. It was a race of sorts. You had to roll a grape acrodd the room with only your nose.

I completely failed because I have a small nose. RM won. He had the biggest nose. I smell foul play. XP.... Not really... XP

Anyways, today was Naru2u and I hung out with LS and B(?) all day and ate Pocky. XP

I also bought a sword... XP

I am now at GM's birthday party at TailGators. HBD!! This is my first time here. XP

I'd Rather Live in Japan.

By that I mean that I would prefer baseball as the most popular national spectator sport.

I don't like skating.

13 sprained wrists.

After the first few you start to dislike it, but because it (mostly hockey, but skating in general) is very important in Canada you kinda have to keep skating... There were even mandatory field trips to the skating rink in grade 5 and 6.

I have now outgrown my old skates because I never cared to go skating again.

JS has just this week decided we should go skating every Thursday. >.>

I am reluctant about it, but it sounds like it could be fun................. but I don't have skates.


Anyways, this morning I had an easy / boring Physics 'test' then I wasted quite a bit of time watching 2NE1 music vides on youtube and organizing my emails. (I had like 700 emails in my inbox. Now there are like 20. There was stuff from April.)

Then I had Math class and now I am here blogging / going to attempt to do some of my Bio lab for next Tuesday.

So, ya. I'll ttyl. Also KC is going to go to YA tonight. We are meeting at Baseline. >.> Kinda past where I am going. I am at school right now. Baseline is a bit past my house and YA is in between the two.

Anyways.

PS. I decided to finally listen to thins song "Kiss by Dara (from 2NE1)" and it is pretty good. The MV has a plot although I can't really follow it... xP

"The Meaning of Life"..?

So, heya!

As I said earlier, I will now tell you all about what I did last night (other than falling asleep on my textbook. xP).

So. I'm pretty sure I've told you about the morning, so, (its soooo much fun to eavesdrop. Especially when the people are enthusiastic and are talking about a topic that is interesting to me and when they know less about Japanese than I do. xPPPP but I digress) I will start with after lunch.

So, I went to MATH class with KC. KL was not there as usual. xP We got our tests back. I don't usually study very much for calculus, so I end up having to logically find the answer, which ends up working because it is straightforward if you get it.

We then had a MATH class about integrals, which we (or at least I) had just learned in the tutorial because our TA doesn't go to our classes, so she just goes over what she thinks we have learned so far, which is not at all how far we've gone because my teacher was sick last week and we are kinda getting behind... xP

Anyways, after that I would normally run off to my CHEM lab. As you know, I did. Just not to do a lab, but to hand one in. After that I went to the Minto Center because I usually just hang out in the area of my next class when I have spare time even if the next class is hours away (except for Wednesday. I do not hang out at St. Pats the whole day.... no thanks... xP).

So, I was in the Minto center waiting 3 hours for my FILM class when AL appears as if out of nowhere. I had been studying, kinda, but not really when she appeared. She had a Philosophy class at 4:00 until 5:30. So I went with her after having a very quick breifing on what the class has been like. Apparently the teacher is quite a character "DM is in love with Susan Wolf. But not erotically" is one example of how some things he says can end up describing him in a humerous way.

So, when we entered the room we ended up sitting in the second row. I feel that if you are going to audit a class you should 1. go to a BIG class so you can just blend in 2. you should sit a good distance away from the prof, just in case and 3. the class should not be at the same time as another one of your actual classes. Only the second number was not followed, but I accounted for this by pretending to take notes the whole class. XP. I was actually just studying for Bio, but eventually I did take a few notes because the topic was quite interesting and I could relate to it.

The lecture was mainly about this book that some guy named Klemke had written about his view of the meaning of life. There was a general overview of the points made by the author and a general discussion to understand what he was talking about and the other views associated with the topic, to avoid bias. Klemke had three main topics that point to a God: religious experience, classical arguments and something else (I don't remember what... xP)[AL says it is Religious Scripture]. Yesterday's lecture was mainly focused around a classical argument: The teleological argument.

Teleology (a summary):
Point 1- A high degree of order and complexity manifests design/purpose
Point 2- The natural world has a high degree of order and complexity.
Conclusion 1- The natural world manifests design/purpose
Point 3- If something manifests design/purpose, it must have a designer/purposer.
Conclusion 2- The natural world had a designer ie God.

Honestly, being in science and liking nature, I end up in awe of it all. Like, the central nervous system makes absolutely NO SENSE! How in the world can a few electric signals store memories or thoughts..? How can feelings, emotions, thinking come from electricity..?

Where did the stars come from..? And don't say the big bang, because then I will ask, where that came from. "Energy cannot be created or destroyed." First law of thermodynamics basically says that creation is impossible. It had to start somewhere right..?

Modern 'theories' of evolution start with some elements that just happen to make something a bit more complicated. A few of them then just happen to end up in the same place within the time that the slightly more complicated thing has to exist before it breaks down. The idea of entropy does not like random things happening.

What originally made RNA copy itself..? Ribozymes..? Why did the ribozyme 'want to'..? It can't want something. Its a few elements put together.

It doesn't make sense.

All that to say, the deeper you go in science, sure you 'solve' some things, but only to find more difficult problems. People were satisfied with elements. Then they found atoms. Then they found protons, electrons, neutrons. Now they keep looking even deeper. It's not going to solve anything... Just make things more complicated and at the same time, more ordered.

I don't see an answer. Except for one.

Klemke however did not see the way I do. He found all of the 'evidence' too subjective saying that they were really not good arguments, basically. If he were to fall into a pit and just happen to be caught by a rosebush hanging above a dragon and the bush is starting to fall, but he saw the rose he would find contentment in that. The meaning of life is based on your attitude is what I wrote down.

I may audit philosophy a few more times. It seemed interesting.

Ya. I'll talk to you guys later I guess.

おやすみ。

Have You Ever V..?

Have you ever ended up staying up really late studying for a midterm and in the end slept on a textbook..?

Well, last night I did, technically... xP... but I didn't just fall asleep on my textbook, there was a pillow between the book and my face and i suppose I chose to go to sleep. You see, I was 'studying' in my bed and was just too tired to even read it, so I just pulled my pillow over and put it on top of my textbook which was still open and went to sleep.

My blankets had actually separated the night before, so I only had like 1.5 of the 3 blankets covering me. I woke up like 6 times within the hour of 4am and didn't think to fix my blankets until some time during 5am. Those were the longest 2 hours ever. Like, I woke up and was like... "Why am I awake..? it's 4. I'm going to sleep a couple more hours."

Nearly everyone has their Biology textbooks at school today. This is noteworthy because it weighs a ton and so no one ever brings them unless they have to. In other words, everyone has to bring them today so that they can cram a few more minutes of Biology studying somewhere into their day before the midterm at 11:30 or 1 (BIOL 1103 or BIOL 1003). A number of people have been skipping CHEM or PHYS, but there are also a lot of people studying in class. xP I am doing neither because I hate studying the day of. I studied on the bus and between class and I just can't do it anymore, so I am blogging during Physics class.

I shall blog later about what happened yesterday night.

Packing Tape

Hey, so.

There is a reason that I did not blog yesterday. Yesterday was one of those days, you know, the ones where I do a LOT of homework because I'm just so great at procrastinating..? xP... Ya. Monday usually ends up being one of those days...

So, ya. Yesterday I had a CHEM lecture, a PHYS lecture and a BIOL lecture. Boring stuff. xP.... Then a long while later I had DG with RM. What did I do in that time..? Um... I was working frantically on my CHEM lab, and I had lunch with CW, and I found out some information about the Quidditch team practices, aaaannndddd, ummmm... I wasted a lot of time... xP

So, ya.... When I got home I really had to finish my CHEM lab that was due today. Then I realized that for our BIOL tutorial we had to do some things before we got there... THen I realized that I still had to do my PHYS assignment and preclass quiz... THEn I realized that I wouldn't have time to eat a dinner that I would make because of all this work I had to do, so I would have to eat the spaghetti that my dad gave me on the weekend which I planned to eat for lunches all week. THEN I ate all of the spaghetti and drank over a litre of milk and watched anime. I got to bed at midnight and woke up at 6.

I rushed so that I could get to school and print the stuff off in the Steacie building. My laptop was not cooperating and it took far longer than it should have. The tutorial was on information transfer, in other words transcription / translation, so it wasn't that bad. But then I got my lab back. I had 5 marks taken off for font / spacing issues. You see, there was a maximum of 1 page for the introduction and I was like half a line over. So, I played with spacing / margins / font size, like 1.8 spacing, 11.75 font and like a cm off each margin. He took off 5 marks. It was only that one page that I had played with and I'm pretty sure the other TA said it was okay because there really was a lot of stuff to put into the introduction. So I am going to fight for at least 3 of those marks! At least! Hopefully all of them. >.>

So, ya. Today my lab was due. The super scary formal lab. Typed and in a duotang and everything. So, yesterday when I got to Staples it had just closed. They actually closed slightly early... xP It was like 8:58 when I got there... So I had to buy a duotang at school from the bookstore.

I went to the check out and the cashier says "Chemistry..?" and explained that about half of her sales for the day came from duotangs. xP... It seems like everyone procrastinated.

So, I just handed in my lab. The process was so legit yo. I mean, like totally legit. There are 5 lab sections and everyone has to hand it in today, so outside the lab there were 5 boxes. Big boxes. On tables. But not just on tables, then people might steal the boxes or the labs or something, so they were fully secured and attached to the tables. By packing tape. Legit yo.

Anyways. I am wasting time during my CHEM lab period. I don't have a lunch. My Bio textbook is at home (I have a midterm tommorow that I havn't studied for yet. I actually just walked by K(?) and S(?) who were in my bio class last year and they asked me if I had studied yet. When I said no they were like "ya, but you probably know everything already" xP. I do not.... I really need to study... even though our prof said it would be far easier than the last one (which everyone failed) So, ya...) and I don't really have anything to do..........

We'll see what happens. xP

I Surrender All

Ok. So. Today.

Today started an hour later than it was supposed to, but that didn't stop me from getting up early to procrastinate and end up doing nothing important at all. In fact, when I have a lot of 'free' alone time that is when I am most likely to fall to temptation. Then I was just depressed and felt stupid and ashamed.

I left the house to go meet with KC before church. He ended up getting off at the wrong stop when he heard 'baseline' and so he did not end up at Baseline station. Just somewhere along baseline road...

So, I missed Sunday school again for almost no reason... and I still felt pretty bad AND KC was somewhere in Ottawa trying to bus somewhere else that he barely knew in the cold Movember weather, so I was kinda worried about him...

Anyways, it was the first Sunday of the month so we had a joint communion. (Oh... Pastor DB was back. Did he find his permanent residency card..? Hmmm.... I wonder) For most of it I was worried KC would pop into the sanctuary through a 'bad door' and upset the communion service..... I didn't want him to feel embarassed like I would have been if that happened to me. But the whole communion service really hit me over the head the whole 'Jesus died for your sins' and 'you are forgiven' 1 John 1:9 "But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and purify you from all unrighteousness". Honestly, I felt way better after the communion. There actually wasn't enough juice prepared for everyone, ie there were more people participating in it than they expected. That is a good thing. xP

KC entered the sanctuary just as the communion service finished. I was expecting to explain communion to him on the bus on the way, but I suppose I can explain it later. He hasn't really read any of the Bible yet, as far as I know, so it would be a new thing to hear, like most things are for him.

So, all the songs I chose this week for worship team are about how Jesus came, bore our sins and died for us. Before the Throne of God Above, The Saving One, In Christ Alone, He Will Come and Save You, and How Deep the Father's Love for Us. They actually fit with the message pretty well. xP (I didn't know what the sermon was about this week.... xP)

Yesterday's practice was a lot of fun, CW had a mic!, it was piano / bass / drums and everyone was singing, and I was the only person on the center of the stage... xP and all the songs go into a range where I back away from the mic. xP (I thought that pretty much all of the A/V was a bit loud today. Like normally I would be close to the mic when singing harmonies, but I was usually about a foot away on average... xP) I also played a bit of electric guitar yesterday. xP (The fret board is too narrow!)

So, ya. The songs really got to me and I sang with my heart because God reminded me during the communion why I was even there; I was there to worship Him for all he has done for me. If it wasn't for Him and all he has blessed me with, I don't know where I would be.

We kinda played with tempos a bit.

I got a lot of compliments, but it isn't about what songs I chose our how well I sang, it is about what songs God lead me to and the gifts God has given me and most importantly about how great God is and how amazing his love for us.

Anyways, I just played guitar for like half an hour in my room on my bed singing worship songs. I don't know any strumming patterns and I only strum downwards, but I'm getting better at changing chords.

So, ya. Psalm 32 1-5,10-11 "How blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered! How blessed is the man to whom the lord does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit! When I kept silent about my sin, my body wasted away through my groaning all day long. For day and night Thy hand was heavy upon me; My vitality was drained away as the fever heat of summer. I acknowledged my sin to Thee, And my iniquity I did not hide; I said "i will confess my transgrssions to the Lord"; And Thou didst forgive me of my sin. Many are the sorrows of the wicked; But he who trusts in the Lord, lovingkindness will surround him. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice you righteous ones, And shout for joy all you who are upright in heart."

That was today's Call to worship and I probably introduced it the same way, almost. I didn't let anyone sit down for like 3.5 songs....... xP Ooops....

Whatever.

Christmas in Movember..?

Hello.

Watch this. Actually. Just listen to it. It was the only youtube video I could find with this exact clip of music I wanted. The video is kinda funny, but the music is the best part. xP.



(Of course that was kinda out of the context of the song it belongs to and is WAY funnier in context, but I don't want to make you listen to this song for 22 minutes, so do so at your own pleasing. The song was designed so that although it is, generally, musical it has many elements that people "don't like" such as talking about books, cowboys, opera, rap, children choirs, tubas, banjos, bagpipes etc. Info is here if you want it: http://www.wired.com/listening_post/2008/04/a-scientific-at/ Honestly I laughed at quite a bit of it. Especially the randomly placed commercials and tuba)

Anyways. The point of me bringing that up was that I am completely annoyed at how commercial our society is. It is Mov 6 and Independent is completely covered in all it's christmas decorations. Can you not wait until at least Dec 10th..? nearly two months in advance..? That is outrageous. EE and DS and I were talking about this at C4C Weekly Meeting. As soon as it snows it becomes christmas and so you can sing Christmas songs all the time and take a break for Rememberance Day, then sing again until maybe January.

Anyways. I really want to watch a game of Quidditch. You heard me. Quidditch. or rather, Muggle Quidditch, but it is still amazing, yet I have not seen any of it. Except for this promotional video for the Quidditch World Cup:



I really want to learn more about how to play. EE is actually on the team. xP

Anyways, I should do some homework. xP

A Speedy Acceleration.

So, hello.

Today I will speak in a different tone than I normally do because of the information I am about to bestow upon you.

Without really trying I have managed to identify my blogstalker / anonymous fan and I will soon be hunting them down. I deffinately thought it would take longer than this to locate them, but I managed to do it without even trying.

Mwahahahahaha*cough*

But I digress. There will be a day when we meet face to face. The only difference is that I will know what you look like.

Mwahahahahahahahahahahaha*cough*

Anyways. Enough of that.

I am actually worship leader this weekend too and I have deffinately not put as much time into selecting songs. Whenever a worship song would pop into my head I would write it down on my hand (to save the trees!) and now there are seven songs. Herewith:
-He will come and save you
-He has made me glad
-Glorious
-Cry of my Heart
-God of Wonders
-I will rise
-Before the Throne of God above.

Actually, only the first five popped into my head. The others were found while searching for songs based on the suggestions of AW concerning opening songs.

I cleaned my house for YA and it is now 6:53. Only me, RL and JW are currently in the house.

I have now consumed 2 heads of lettuce. The first salad was tasty; romaine, onion, cucumber, tomato, vanilla yougurt. The second was very sour; romaine, onion, celery, tomato, grapefruit. I am running out of produce. I only have romaine, some frozen asian vegetables, frozen french fries, onion, green onion, tomatoes, garlic, ginger and lime left... Hmm.... a lime, ginger, green onion, garlic salad..?

Anyways....

New Profile

So, if you havn't noticed, my profile was extremely out of date. So, I finally changed it.

I don't really like the "1200 character limit", but I do agree it is a good idea... >.>

This was my old profile:

About Me
I have two part-time jobs, although one is super part-time, ie very rare and spaced out shifts, I was in five school-related bands (six if you count vocal jazz as anything...) and one just-for-fun "band" that plays music that has been poorly rehearsed at coffeehouse-type school-related events with a few of my friends, but now the school year is done and band is done. I play trombone, trumpet, bass, cello pans and sing with a baritone range (kinda annoying range), I think I have a lot of friends, but few "best-friends" mostly because of my lack of free-time in general. I like volleyball, softball, baseball, tennis, and badminton. I mostly watch anime and sometimes a korean drama. I like Chemistry, Biology, Music and Math, but dislike English. I'm "gifted." I go to Church regularly, including Youth Fellowship (however, I will soon become a YA) and Worship Team. I don't know what I'm going to do with my life. I was involved in Student Council, Music Council, Drama, Athletics (kinda) and many other things probably..? This is my biggest problem, I am too involved, probably...

It is now quite different. Although that 1200 character limit has severly reduced the amount I could tell you.

So, ya.

I'm not quite sure how to adress this, so I shall adress it in an interesting manner. posssibly. Here goes.

In my life everything appeared normal. I had friends, I went to school, I grew, my voice changed and the same happens to many others. Seconds flew into minutes, minutes poured into hours, hours flowed into days, days grew into weeks, weeks trickled into years and years blended into a lifetime. Little did I know that my life had slowly became extraterrestrial, or rather extraordinary. I began writing a blog because it sounded like a good idea; a rather useful waste of my time.

I posted about my life, my thoughts and things that were relevent / related to my current experiences. At first it seemed like no one was reading my blog. I slowly became aware that some people were indeed reading it. I was aware of a few friends and I would sometimes discover that someone else I knew was also reading, but not commenting.

Suddenly there were new 'Stats' that showed how many times my blog was viewed. I thought I knew it all.

The other day I was conversing with a certain Mr. W in a certain cafe when it came to my attention that I had become a celebrity in a certain person's mind. Yet, Mr. W refused to reveal the identity of this certain unnamed individual or my identity to them because he thinks it would be funny if we met and didn't know it.

Thus my life had taken a turn. I now had a blogstalker, or maybe just a follower who prefers anonymity. I also now have a friend who will laugh at us if we ever walk by each other in the halls without knowing (That is assuming we both go to Carleton..?).

I will find out who this person is, but I will not use this blog as a tool in my search because that would practically be cheating. I will also refrain from using this Mr. W as a source of information.

So, I say to you mysterious blog viewer, the hunt is on and I hope we both follow the same rules in this game of mystery and world conquest until one of us is the winner.

Mwahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaha.



Anyways, I still havn't had that salad, but I made ginger / garlic / green onion / lime / chicken / asian vegetable rice this morning for lunch today and tommorow. I am looking forward to it.

[Oh no! I forgot to add the curry! T.T It still tasted good.]

He Will Never Leave You.

Hey.

Sup..?

I havn't had supper yet. xP. I have to go to sleep though.... xP I havn't had supper in a few days... xP I have like 3 heads of romain in my fridge that need to be eaten, but clearly not for breakfast and lunch is inconvenient for a salad, so supper is the only possibility I have left......... They cost me 4$ yo.

Anyways, I managed to get everything done today and even kinda read over the stuff I'll be going through with KC tommorow. It's in this book "Knowing Jesus Personally". Lesson 1: Understanding Your Relationship with Jesus Christ. I suppose I should breifly cover the gospel in case you havn't heard it so that it all makes sense.

4 main points:
1. God loves you. He made you perfect and in his image so that you could have a relationship with Him and fulfill the purpose and plan he has for you.
2. Our Condition: All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. This sin separates us from Him. This sin is anything that keeps us from a relationship with Him such as going your own way for selfish desires or just ignoring Him. This condition that we have makes us impure and unable to establish a relationship with Him by our own means.
3. God's Response. God sent his only begotten son to die for our sins. The wages of sin is death. Jesus had no sin. You cannot get rid of your sin, but Jesus has already paid the price for your sins. He died on the cross and rose from the dead.
4. Your Response: Knowing this is not enough. Neither is an emotional experience. You must accept the gift of eternal life and invite Jesus into your life. You can do this by praying a prayer repenting for your prior sins, thanking Jesus for paying for them and asking Jesus to come into your life and lead you to become the person God meant you to be.

Anyway, that is a very basic general overview of the gospel.

So, ya. Tommorow's lesson has 5 truths.
1. Christ forgave your sin.
2. Christ made you a child of God.
3. Christ came into your life and he will never leave you.
4. Christ gave you new life.
5. Christ gave you eternal life.

There are various bible quotes and thought provoking questions associated with the lesson. The last question is "Which of these five truths are especially maeningful to you now?" and "Why?". I'm really bad at deciding one thing over another. I can't decide between 1 and 3. I have sinned, but He still forgave me. He hasn't just forgiven me, He is also giving me a purpose and he has a plan for my life, even though I was a sinner. On top of that if I ever happen to sin He doesn't just throw me aside, He is always there. He always calls us back to Him, we just need to hear Him and repent of the sin.

I probably didn't explain what those truths actually mean to me properly, but you get the point, right?

Anyways, I'll ttyl.
