ELATION.
Midterm done.
Home.... feel's SOOO good. I think i'm gonna watch some movies and bum around on the couch tonight. :)
::sigh:: sooooo glad to be home.
i wonder if this is the feeling you get when you get to heaven, knowing you're home... fun stuff.

studying alone today in my apt. God, me and the books.
Abba Father, forgive me of my attitude. humble me and make me so that i study to Glorify You, Amen.

going to class now.

HOW COOL! beign self centered and very sidetracked.. i searched my name on google and i'm actually on a berkeley website!
on this website.

I no longer feel whole... i lost my pencil pouch and my nalgene bottle with the sorta deformed cap that i accidentally partially melt last year and now it's kind of leaky... hmmm.. need to some how give order to my writing utensils. the only survivor is my pencil.. the maroon pencil that cost a sort of fair amount.
I have a cd of sister's appreciation pictures and monterey bay. if you wanna see 'em let me know.
ANNOUNCEMENT!
i'll be studying somewhere on campus everyday.. probably until finals. so if you wanna come study, come! we can do the don't sleep accountability thing. so... tomorrow from 11:30-2:00 VLSB KOSHLAND BIOSCIENCES LIBRARY!
yeah...

STINK! meteor shower at 2:30 and class at 8:00 am doesn't match.
ok... on to something else... THANKS ERIC SECRET BRO DUDE!! I'm now using the box to hold my really nice metallic pens. They fit just right which is quite nice.

so yeah... i'm on my.. i mean christina's computer 'cause i sent nigel out under the care of gregory to get fixed up for praise night. it's the first time i let nigel go to a sleepover.... he's my baby.
i'm SOOOOO excited about praise night tomorrow. :) It's gonna be awesome.

guess what guess what?! i only have ONE CLASS TOMORROW!!! HAAHAAAHAAA. but the stinkin class is at 8 stinkin in the morning. oh well. :) i get to go shopping for bro's app. dunno what to wear.
oh my goodness beautiful mind is SUCH A GOOD MOVIE!! the guy is daaang smart.
dude i can understand why it got 4 academy awards (INCLUDING BEST PICTURE) like all of those boxes say.

here's an amusing story from monterey. we're all outside in the back of the aquarium overlooking the bay and this seagull lands on the railing. it appears really calm we i try to step closer to it. i think a camera was involved.. so i step closer and stare at it and it kind of stares back.. it's butt is facing me so it's head was turned towards me... and when my face gets a foot away.. PLOP! it goes poo. it was kind of funny because it didn't move or anything. maybe it couldn't move because it was so lethargic and concentrating to get the poo out. or maybe it was so scared of my menacing presence that it had to go poo.. like mice do when they're scared. yup.

my sister's boyfriend suggests that i go to the blue nile. so i will. anyone wanna go eat at the blue nile for dinner sometime? comment or hit me up with an e-mail, im or tell me or something and we'll set up a group outing to the restaurant where there are no utensils and you eat with your HANDS! i heard it was really good. so yeah let me know.

monterey was SOOOO fun. I have lots of good pics. it's beautiful in monterey. the brain is tired.. ochem quiz tomorrow. this is for you! yes.. YOU!! I'll be at vlsb (KOSHLAND BIOSCIENCES LIBRARY) tomorrow after ochem lab. I predict at about 3:00 or sooner or later i dunno, but i'll probably be staying until 7 or something. If you want to join me you're welcome to. (i also need someone to walk home with) so yeah...

KOSHLAND BIOSCIENCES LIBRARY 3:00 (tentative)-7(also tentative depending on the productivity) ok? cool..
nite all.

taking a PHAT break from studying for ochem.

so i want to dye/bleach/streak my hair red. any suggestions? though there are more downsides than upsides. maybe one day when i'm moody or something and feel like doing something drastic like pierce my cartilage and dye my hair, my parents, especially my dad would freak if he saw my cartilage peirced.

eva dinner was alrite, there was no one to evangelize to. it was just tony and justin ('cause it was at their apartment), eric, christina and me. i've been missing contact on fridays, kind of want to go out one of these days, when it's not raining. :P i was looking at my list of friends, and my closest friends are christians (haahaa i almost typed christinas, which is true too haahaa) Anyway, yeah I'm evaulating my friends and wondering why is it like this? during class or lab or discussion or whatever, i don't usually talk about personal stuff with my classmates which is a really good place to make friends, but i think i'm comfortable enough not to extend my circle of friends, but that's not good. my life needs to be a constant witness to those who don't know Him even though my life is far from perfect... yeah i've been realizing a lot of my weaknesses lately...i need to work on being less egocentric and more Theocentric or peoplecentric or something, i need to work on having good conversations with people getting to know them better, asking probing questions and being able to answer them myself to establish good friendships...i need to strengthen my prayer life, my reliance on God but then again, it's not me who changes me.. it's the Spirit who changes me... being moldable, changeable, having a child-like heart, child-like faith and a child-like mind and yet being as shrewd as a fox...

so at eva dinner justin asked this question: "what about sfc would you like to change" and i answered that the worship would be filled with life, people move to the music, they're smiling, clapping, standing up, singing raising up their hands.. being uninhibited in their worship to the God who created them" and justin said, you have a point, but the worship leaders are the examples and should lead in such a way.. so i've been thinking about it
Praise night is coming up...God has answered so many prayers already.. I have a prayer request for Friday, too... that our corporate worship as well as individual worship would be like david worshipped, shouting and dancing to the LORD... none of this self consciousness because true worship isn't scared of what the person next to you is gonna say about you standing up or moving to the music or raising your hands you know?
Abba Father, you are infinite, all powerful, all knowing and you deserve so much more than what we sing, play or give to you. Lord, please forgive my irreverence coming into your presence, into your sanctuary, Lord I pray that you'll change me, humble me. Lord I thank you for creating something so beautiful as music, that mere disturbances in the air could create such beautiful melodies. I pray that we would use this gift to your Glory, that it would be used to encourage to reach out and to be a reflection of the Love that sent your Son to the cross. I pray for this friday. I pray that people would sing for joy with all their heart that they would praise like the author of Psalm 47 praises. Lord I pray that your Spirit would be there that the worship team and I would worship with all our hearts to smile, to sing as if we were excited children, that which we are, Lord. You alone are worthy of our praises. In Jesus Name...

new aspiration!!!
I want to spend a couple weeks on a penguin photo expedition... to either the falklands or south georgia or new zealand (LOTR!!). That would be fun, and yet very taxing.

THREE DAYS UNTIL MONTEREY BAY and PENGUINS! :)

(taking 1a with viv and 45c with christina and maybe jeff). Then I went swimming with Jessie, YAY! and then i came home ate dumplings did laundry and headed off to psych. Then I went to study and an Ochem review session. Then I came home to see Kevin working on my computer, but he was doing hbs stuff. And then for small group we went to Crepes a GOGO, FUN! I had turkey egg spinach and ricotta cheese, SOOO good. And i split it with christina who had strawberries and nutella SOOOOOO good. :) And then we went to starbucks and I got a caffe mocha, which means I'M SOOOO WIRED! And then on the fly we decided to drive around campus and we went up to LBL and GUESS WHAT?! There's A HUGE DNA MOLECULE there!! BEAUTIFUL!! Teehee.. and then we came back. Now i'm gonna watch a movie with Christina. BYEBYE!
