=> ok well so school is super busy especially with scholarships and all *sigh*. there's been so much stress that my stomach acid's been acting up again and once again it feels like i'm getting stabbed.
=> i decided a while ago that perhaps poem by poem i begin to post all my works up on here. just as another way to track them anyways and perhaps even elaborate on them.

Liam Eyes.
=> well now that school's started up again...
actually it's not that bad since my semester's pretty light, it's next semester that has all the science stuff. but oh em gee i miss him so much! and Liam & his eyes oh my oh my, people at my school really seem to like his backpack. i keep seeing it and going in my mind, "what the...Liam's back?" but of course, life isn't fantasy; Liam's gone who knows where...well actually i'm pretty sure he's going to BC like tomorrow or something.
anyways::::::: Uni Fair is back again, at least this time i won't be going in crutches.

From Hong Kong To Final Year.
=> so to continue my Hong Kong experience 09, I’ll just start off by saying oh em gee it was way too hot and humid. Melted pretty much every single day and as if that wasn’t bad enough, there were 2 typhoons at level 8 and one at level 9. At least I had fun on the day the level 9 hit. While everyone was leaving Ocean Park once it started pouring, me plus family went upwards to the top of the mountains where all the aquariums were. As for HK being shopping lala land? Ptsh yea right, everything there was pretty much the same as here when they’re on sale. Well like yea there are a number of things there that are fairly cheap ie wholesale, knock-offs via bargaining.
Mid-way through the trip, we went to Thailand with 2 of my cousins. Simply put, it made me miss Hong Kong. Honestly like no offence to Thais but Thailand was fairly nauseating…call me a spoiled Canadian. See now I would totally exploit all their tourism scams on here but a) I don’t want to get hunted down b) it’s too nauseating to write about.
After 5 days of “omg can’t wait to get back to HK and actually not feel like throwing up every 2 seconds,” we were finally back to HK. But before that, we had to get onto the plane. FYI when in the Thai airport, go through customs at the last 10 mins before boarding or else like me, you’ll end up stuck on a bridge like thing with nothing to do; no washrooms, eatery, chairs, nothing. On the plane though was the most adorable little girl sitting behind us. I chatted a bit with her dad and found out that they were with the Hong Tai tours and even he thought that our tour was ridiculous in comparison to theirs. We were with Kwan Geen (or something translated like that) btw. Well lesson learnt, never go on a tour with them again; ‘kwan geen kwan sum lai’ is their motto which translates to Kwan Geen cares for you, ptsh well I think their motto should be ‘kwan geen kwan sum cheen’ which translates to Kwan Geen cares about money.
Once back in HK it was the same old same old, too hot and humid. Although I’m so thankful (hallelujah) that where I was staying (one of my uncle’s) had a piano so I was able to cram/practice for my exam set for Aug. 22.
At last, home sweet home. But just as quickly, I was sitting on the piano bench for hours cramming to pick back up my 2 studies, list D piece, and all my technique. So after two weeks, the moment of truth, the exam. I did relatively well, I knew I wasn’t going to pass with flying colours but I was pretty confident that I at least marginally passed. Low and behold, results came in around two weeks later and I passed with a 67 =)
=> that’s pretty much my whole summer. Two months summed up into 5 paragraphs.
The most productive though I have to admit was probably this weekend. On Friday I went with my sister, Leon and Lexx to Ikea to pick up some cabinets and so I spent the weekend finally at last putting my room together. It’s still not fully done yet, but getting there, just missing the final touches.
The most unexpected of my summer was becoming (co)-chair of my fellowship. It was weird because I went into the meeting thinking to drop my position as secretary, not be part of the servant team anymore but still attend the meetings. Iunno it seems like God totally handed me this position on a golden platter cause being chair will no doubt help me in the future and even for universities which at the moment I need all the help I can get. It’s true though I still really care about my kiddies in my fellowship especially after talking to each and every one of them every week via weekly email updates. Meanwhile my parents are just worried I won’t be able to juggle it with school and piano, iunno we’ll see but I do believe that I’m in this position for a reason and my Heavenly Daddy knows that I can do it.
=> and now it’s almost time to bid farewell to UHS. 10 more months before I no longer am a high school student (unless I stay another year). Way back when we were just entering high school you hear about how high school’s the best 4 years of your life (or on the contrary the worst 4 years), but honestly not much really happened. I have no clue what’ll happen this year but the last 3 can be summed up quite easily.
Make new friends but keep the old, one is silver and the other’s gold (via Girl Guides).
Rekindle an broken friendship, break a new friendship.
Get played by one, you play another, be the other woman to the third.
Life lessons learnt to determine your future.
I just realised, these four lines actually each represent one year, well generally anyways. Anywho, it’ll be the beginning of the new school year tomorrow. New niners, new seniors, new circle of life. With this I bid thee a belated one year celebration of i0lwf.

Notes When To Hong Kong 09.
=> so well...it's been a while. so i guess all i can say is it's gonna be a long post. fyi, it's kind of in "real time" so pretty much just started typing again in one continuous whenever during the flight. also remember, i was pretty much only 1/2 awake during the whole thing so may not bee too coherent; so much so that even i was getting comfused when re-reading to type this out.
=> (via typed out on phone over a span of 5 hours, july 7th?ish) we're off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of hong kong. so i found out that if the plane isn't steady aka if it's an airbus, i get terrible airsickness. lucky that was only for the super short flight to chicago for connecting. the 747 was sooo much better and steadier (given that after take off on the airbus i was pretty much sitting there trying not to pass out from dizziness and on the 747 i'm able to do whatever including type this >< )
lessons learnt so far: airbuses make me sick & never open cup noodles with the opening towards yourself. oce second i was a-ok, the next second i had cup noodle seasoning in my eye. they're tasting not bad, a bit too salty but it IS cup noodle after all. also learnt that inside o'hera airport my keybo can't text. grrr. oh well i'll try again when i land [added note: can't text in hk either].
as for in flight movies, 3 tv shows from discovery channel so didn't understand it too much especailly given the fact that i didn't have the earphones in either. then watched He's Just Not That Into You which is just this onee huge love web. it doesn't help either that 2 of the guys looked pretty alike except for that one had highlights. but but but, it was a good movie (btw the dragon's lair guy from sisterhood looked sooo much better in sisterhood than here). then it was a Renée Zellweger movie, New In Town...yea wasn't paying attention at all and was getting tired so no clue what the movie was about. i do know though that it was about her being new in a town that's cold. well then, after that was a drgaon ball z movie, dragonball revolution. the actors all look familiar but didn't know what on earth was going on in the movie. there were orange balls that were very orb-like and then there were those air moving stuff that are colourful and they shoot at each other. there was some guy that was called grotto or gruto or soemthing that sounded familiar...anyways, whatever.
6 hours until landing and we're above syberia [added note: or so that's what we were told]! guess what we saw? land, plateau, emptinessy stuff, and LOTS of rivers and ponds that were semi coated with ice. there was possibly ONE village and a main road. of course not 100% of it really was pure emptyness since we're way up in the sky. and then guess what!? there was a river that spelt out 'plage'...oh snap...just realised that plauge was a U. does 'plare' mean anything? hmm... oh well your pick; it spelt something like that.
monsters vs aliens was on by the time i was getting bored of syberia. it was pretty good. we couldn't remember who did the voicing so we were thinking jennifer love hewitt but then found out via credits that it was reese witherspoon. *sigh* missing The Listener and my lovely CSIs, cntm's finale's next week too. oh! there's 5 movies, though i think that it said that there were only only to be 4. oh well, s'all good! lalalal yea i've eaten enough cranberries to last me a very long time. but do you know what's not gonna last me a long time? yea can't think of one just now either lol. so just found out that the movie's called Last Chance Harvey, well whatever i'm getting tired, gonna take another nap before landing. so apparently i really do have a problem with getting really warm right as and when i fall asleep so now i can't sleep again. took a 20 minute mini nap? i guess i'll just watch harvey then.
=> after a short while we landed in HK. as soon as we stepped off the plane, we died of the humidity and that night was the 1st of 3 typhoons during out trip.

How On Earth.
=> i have seven (and counting) little cuts on my hand, mainly the left. i have NO clue how they got there. my best guess is that because i've been washing my hands so much at co-op (physio clinic) that they're cracking...but they don't seem THAT dry to me. the only thing my hand washing seems to be affecting is my fingers growing 6-packs...but then again, it happens every year. my dermatologist says it's a form of eczema. me loves me dermatologist, he's really really really nice and has his own research lab and seminars and assist UT or something. =)
=> H17BD MOOSE! well in like 2 1/2 hours...i love how we wrapped her gifts. mine in a doodled over future shop flyer and exeye's in a mickydee's bag; but you know how we're all going green nowadays. ;)

It's Hard.
=> life is hard. sometimes you've just gotta suck it up. how do we suck it up? i have NO clue.
so i had to talk to she who must not be named last friday...to get closure...yea cause that went great. and now apparently i need to find it within myself to let myself to trust her again. which sucks cause i have no clue how to make myself do that. afraid to let my gaurd down; but then again who wouldn't be afraid after such a betryal.
so i came back home...had a vex...then filled that bottle with 3:4-ish bailey's.
then s just had to tell my pastor i was drinking...who told my other pastor...who told my dad...who just made sure i talked to s about it and why she told my pastor without telling me she was going to.
*sigh* i know you're concerned girlie. but really? what is there to be concerned about? i'm not gonna get drunk. if i was going to, then i would've done so 2 new year eves back.
=> on a happier note. i graduated from physio!!! this means that i'm....no not back to 100% but getting there...soon. just need to strengthen it some more; only what i can work on myself, nothing physio can help with. Thank God that i switched to my mom's physio, recovery was so much faster after that.

Into The Sunrise.
=> youth retreat this year was AH-MAY-SHING!!
shouts to vince who introducted ghetto taboo to us. (the funnest game ever). it's just like taboo, except you write your own cards and there's 3 rounds. the first round, is normal taboo. the second round is charades, but since you're using the same cards, you already know what they might be possibly acting out. the third round is taboo but only allowed to say one word to describe the card.
as "plain" as it sounds in writing, it's actually really really really really really really fun...it's just that you all end up yelling the answers and you might loose your voice later.
well the equation actually goes: ghetto taboox2 + popcorn + talking for four hours + lack of sleep = fun times + watching sun rise + voicy go bye bye
=> and so since i lost my voice over the long weekend, it didn't help that i just got it back yesterday. and today i go to wonderland for a field trip. which well since i missed my voice so much that i just kept talking (even though i couldn't yell during the rides...i did talk through a few of them though). so then tonight...at the end of charis' coffeehouse, my voice almost left again and now i have everyone advising me to stop talking...

Line Of Limits.
=> has it even clicked into his head that he has a girlfriend? If it has then why on earth does it seem like he’s chasing me like a german shepherd going after a drug dealer? I really have no clue what on earth is going on anymore or how I should be reacting. First off I’m in partial wtf whytheheck.. shock as the line becomes gray going “dot dot dot, crap what should I do..crap ugh. Whatever then..?” Then there’s the part of me wants to ask, “wtf are you doing? You have a girlfriend and I’m not interested. Get your hand off me.” and then there’s a third part of me that’s just really curious about how far he’s going to go until he think it’s too far.
ms gf, now hear this out. I have no intentions of being the other woman, I have no intentions of stealing your boyfriend (I’m not and nothing like she who must not be named), I am not interested in your boyfriend (I have my eyes on someone else). In other words, he’s all yours and despite what you might seem to think or hear or whatever, I’m not doing anything; I’m simply being a girl and acting normally as I would with any other person (ie. flinching when getting poked in the sides). I’m stating this only because I can only assume (yes I know that by assuming I’m making an ass out of u and me but) that you’re upset with me or something seeing as though how you don’t say hi to me at all anymore and being very un-you-like. So forgive me of any impressions I’ve made, I have no intentions of anything at all.
=> physics need to die. Stupid physics, stupid projects (though I’m quite happy with the car…hopefully the results will reflect the consistency that I had achieved during my home and pre-class trials), stupid school…
=> I need… a block of gelatin and a knife.

Everything Changes.
=> so i was just randomly thinking today and i don't know if it was just because sharon was mentioning retreat to me while walking to our bus stop, but anyways. yea i was just thinking about what we did at retreat last year, what everything was like both at retreat & church and other things in my life. then i noticed that alot has changed while other things were like, "omg it's been a year!?"
it just seems like the conditions were so different back then:
then: the falling out between me and she who must not be named was JUST beginning to start.
now: ugh. just ugh. (see old posts)
then: we've all just began to REALLY get worried about K.
now: still praying for her. still looking for quotes in the Bible and in books for her. yet to get to sit down and talk to her though...(to be put on my to do list)
then: me and saki started taking the first majorer steps in healing our "wtf happened in gr6? bff to ihateyouguts in 2 secs?" thing. to be honest, i was a bit "alrighty then, first test, mayfair's chalk off, drawing a moose eating sushi together..."
now: THANK GOODNESS we're back to normal again. as normal as normal can get anyways, but actually probably even closer now than before.
then: the Sr.s of ezekiel = the Sr.s of silas = the ones i look up to =)
now: they're all off to uni, well actually DONE their first year of uni.
then: infatuation with liam's amazing eyes.
now: they're still as gorgeous as ever except i don't get to see him as often now.
then: one year today...or well yesterday since its 1 in the morning, shout out to joanne's bday. even though she had her party a few laters, same diff. which honestly it seemed like only last month...but then again i remember that i was still using maybelline great lash.
now: just finished making and sending her personalized e-pic-card (ecard but with a picture of themselves via the if0nly dictionary) around an hour ago. covergirl lashblast all the way; can't wait to get lashblast luxe.
ahaha well that seemed like a history lesson disguised as a blog... whatever LOL. nighty nights!!

now: just finished making and sending her personalized e-pic-card (ecard but with a picture of themselves via the if0nly dictionary) around an hour ago. covergirl lashblast all the way; can't wait to get lashblast luxe.
ahaha well that seemed like a history lesson disguised as a blog... whatever LOL. nighty nights!!
Still Not Back? & Forever Princess.
=> so since my shrink still isn't back from ny... *glares*
argh why are you always out of town when i'm in near breakdown? anyways instead of my explaining it later and trying to remember deets, i'm just gonna get you to read this ;)
=> well it started off with sunday school and brought up the topic of forgiveness or something (it's one of the ones of the beatitudes). then sharon gives me "the glare" hinting of the questions again "hem hem, shouldn't you be forgiving (she who must not be named) and let it be water under te bridge like the good little christian girls we are already?" yea i just went "shhhhh *hmph* we're not going there right now..."
flash forward and we're on msn. so i see that her pm's quote (sharon i really hope you don't mind me quoting you since pm's are seen to the public anyways), "hate you? well i wouldnt say hate.forgive you? thats a hard one.care bout you? yea thats hard too". so i tell her that even though we're talking about 2 diff situations, her pm was exactly my point.
and then this convos goes on again like every other time. her JJWD vs my, "you have no clue".
cept we actually made more progress i guess today... at least we laid down more of what happened and that i'd EVENTUALLY talk to she who must not be named and smooth things over, but that's after i can actually look at her without wanting to stab her.
but it was still really really horrible having to go back and open up healing stitches again (i even had to start dinner a few minutes late cause i couldn't take it downstairs and had to hide out in my room for a while) especially since it was only friday that she who must not be named was standing there in the hall in my way.
and then you just HAD to be in ny -_-
=> on a happier note and something that my shrink doesn't have to read if he doesn't want to.
i stayed up till 3:45am last night reading forever princess (which would explain why i wasn't too sharp during sunday school). the conclusion of the princess diaries series. 8/8 (or at least i think there were 8). the book was soooo cute! i read it all in 2 days. like over 3/4 of it during the day yesterday and over 1/2 of it at night.
if you havn't read any of the princess diaries yet, i advise you to go out and start reading them! omg as if the first few books wern't cute enough, the last one is OMG REALLY REALLY CUTE!!! there's the begininng story line with mia as a 9er. then throughout the years she's still writing in her journals, well even though technically she writes in gr9 and 10. then in the last book it jumps to her in gr12 and explaining that she pretty much spent gr11 writing a novel. i don't want to give any of it away but it is such a girly romantic ending that's sooooo very cute.

Just Because It’s Weird In It’s Own Way Doesn’t Make It Wrong…Or Does It?
=> well it’s not like there’s anything going on. In fact, I havn’t seen him since summer. But all the same I can’t rid that thing at the back of my mind that’s going, “omg our hugs are amazing!! It’s like everything just fades away and its just us, making seconds seem like minutes in my memory.” “ugh this is wrong in so many ways, the no mac(and cheese) rule was there for a reason kiddo; he’s taken now too anyways.” “But but but… the hugs!!! =(” and yes, I have convos with my brain. Well I guess in the meantime I’ll just have to hug other people haha, “bring in the subs!”
=> yea so um, since I’m typing these posts via my mini laptop aka lapbook (but I rather call it a mini laptop), I’m not going to be able to sign off these posts properly since the coding for it is in a “sticky note” on the desktop.
=> there is a vid a found on some site (via my friend’s msn pm) which I then youtubed. In summary, it’s a spoof of the dove commercial back a few yrs ago about the evolution of beauty. I now bring to you *insert drum roll* the evolution of facebook pics.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6aBp4vJnj8
=> and um since my "shrink" is in NY with his school (yes arjun, you‘re my shrink now, which only means you’ll have me badgering you more about my many issues)…I have no one to whine to about stuff I can’t whine to sharon about, aka having she who must not be named standing in my way after school today. Yes I still wanna punch the living daylights out of her, the only reason why I rather not? Don’t really want that much crap on my school transcript after getting dragged into a cat fight last year (which’s another story for another day) nor do I wanna spend my school years in jail for homicide (or maybe it’ll be 2nd degree murder if I get too carried away with actually “punching the living” part). Ugh it’s not like I don’t want to put this all behind me. But when you wasted two yrs on a friendship that you later find out was filled and based on lies and other junk, it’s just kinda hard. Oh and not to mention’s it’s made me paranoid that she might be ripping my friends away from me slowly one by one. WHICH I’m happy that she has yet done so, or at least successfully done so.

Chastity Workshop via Rev. (some last name i can't remember right now...)
=> these are the notes i took from a workshop at my church about chastity.
=> love processing. (could have been 'love possessing' but this is what happens when you're taking notes on your phone)
1) having favourable impression
2) missing
3) confessing
4) accepting
5) dating
6) changing
=> high school friends last a lifetime. (hey, isn't that what i said in my letter to j?)
therefore, hold stronger relationships with friends. develop more peer relationships than romantic ones.
=> to date does not mean you have to have pyhsical intimacy. you won't die if you don't have intimate lust. it's like drugs, where you'll never be satisfied.
=> lust possessing (ok this one i'm sure its 'possessing') [to be thought of as 'levels']
1) get close to
2) hold hands
3) embrace
4) kiss
5) fondle
6) sexual contact
7) sexual intercourse
possible 8) stds & pregnancy (to be lead to the question of abortion)
the attraction to advance to then next 'level' will grow as you reach the previous 'level'
=> intimacy boundary.
where should we place it? or not have a boundary at all?
since it's very difficult to have self control and stop at lvl 7) so stop at 6). because of the attraction and temptation to proceed at 6), stop at 5). so stop at 4), 3), 2), 1)?
so accordingly, stop at 2) and be looking deeply into the person's personality and inner being. stay away from the physical stuff.
=> there are more temptations nowadays than back in the bibical times. God has a greater expectation from us. we have been specially selected to show the strength of chastity.
=> 2 corinthians 11:2
maintaining pure for christ and for your future spouse
psalms 139:13-16
He saw our unformed body, written our life plan already. know from the beginning of the beginning.
1 corinthians 6:18-20
2 timothy 2:21-22
1 thessaloians 4:3-5
we will never be asked to face sexual immorality. we are simply told to flee from it. (note: joseph feeing from madien)
=> 80% lose virginity at home. fleeeeeeeeeee
abortions can haunt you even as an elderly having had an abortion in teenage years. abortion and pregnancy at a young age can up risk of ovarian cancer.
it is equal to ripping out baby's page in the book of life. we have no right to do so
=> no one likes their spouse to be experts at sex. they hope that they too are virgins.
many pre-marital sexual partners will result in “boredom” once married and turn to the likes of affairs.
think of the story of rebekah and issac, destined by God for each other. Can you guarentee that your bf/gf is your rebekah / issac? If not, think twice cause like wise, you wouldn’t want your rebekah / issac to have previously fooled around with by someone else.
=> pick a spouse that loves God with all their heart. Learn to pray for your future, for your rebekah / issac.

Oblivious To What You Know.
=> as much as i want you to be un-oblivious to what you know...
it's only fact that i know if anything was to really happen between us, there's only 1 of the 3 possible outcomes that will end in happily ever after.
other than that 1, the other 2 will equivilate (equivalate?) in it blowing up in our faces and destroying everything that we've ever known.
it's a chance that i don't know if i'll ever be ready to take.

Seed. Flower. Seeds.
=> From a Seed to a Flower which in return produces more Seeds. Hallelujah.
April 17th, 2009. the day that mrs. (insert her last name that i can't remember at the moment but i'm pretty sure it starts with a S) accepted christ and obtained her all access pass to being saved my Jesus Christ. age makes no difference; we are all children of christ whether we're 5, 16, or 70 something like mrs.S.
our church had a chinese outreach program thing that night. i was just helping out to watch the kids (relive my younger yrs, regress a it ;) ). so as we were leaving my dad went into the santuary to just say bye. next thing we know mrs.W tells us that mrs.S accpeted christ. so naturally we sit with them (along with a few others) just to see that she truely understands what it means to accept christ and to answer any questions that she may have for us.
one of the things she was worried about was because her whole family was worshipers of false idols, that they would be upset that she suddenly accpeted christ without discussing it with them first. and because of it she might get pressured to in a way "turn her back away" from God. being that she was chinese and didn't understand english, i wasn't able to say much. what i did tell her though in my broken and accented chinese was, "you're like a seed that will bloom into a flower. from you as a flower, will then produce so many more seeds. these seeds would be you're whole family."
as on the spot as this analogy came to me (well maybe not the analogy of it, pretty sure it came of a sermon), but as on the spot as the wording came to me, i can truely feel that it's words that God's given to me. that the words could really have an impact on mrs.S that i'll never know of, especially given the fact that theres an age and language barrier. i had the first line of this post as part of my sn on msn; like sharon puts it, it really is cuteness. Hallelujah.

Late Much?
=> well having you talked to me while i was in the library looking at funny lights, this post is sorta almost a week overdue haha. ANYWAYS i shall now proceed to copy this from my phone.
=> j,
first off, sry for typng this up so late. {stupid phone's backlight doesn't stay on long enough} school's always a factor and gets in te way. which btw IS important. note how i'm not telling you to put school first. becausse well face is, as important as it is, you always have to schedule in fun (sad now my idea of fun this week was helping look after some kids at church). but when you really really think about it, marks don't matter till a few yrs down the road. as long as you scrape by with a 75, you can still take full academic courses (not saying that you shouldn't try your best of course).
now that school's discussed, onwards to the next item on the list; friends. no matter what happens in hs, just remember that it's just hs. everyone acts like a bumbum. my goal for you is to find yourself a moose. find friends that have their morals set right and will stick by you though whatever bs you get yourself into. these are the ones that you pray will stay friends with even after hs when you're off to uni in lala land and for the rest of your life.
now about the boys. one thing that no one will ever understand. since i don't know exactly how your situation initially played out, but i have a feeling i can probs guess the gist of it. to try to get to te point and not make this drag on (like what it seems like i'm doing); Let the slut have the guy. i know this is going to sound cliche but i'm going to say it anyways. you deserve better than him. no guy who trash talks their ex deserves being taken back. now i know you were contemplating bout being friends and not bout getting back together but hear my point out. be careful about letting him back into your life because before you know it, one thing might lead to the next no matter what promise you've made to yourself or anyone else.
just remember kiddo, there's like less than 1/10000 chance of hs relationships ending with a fairytale happily ever after.
well i hope this helped! (no clue how much this will though since i'm drafting this out on my phone at 4:30 in the morning..anyways. Have FUN debating within youself ;)
=> wow...that was actually pretty long...and to think that was only 7 notes on my phone notepad. (thank God for qwerty)
forever xoxo,

Not Exactly Phobic.
=> trembling with fear, pulse is at 100km/h, need air.
there's a spider right there.
=> yea so there was a spider in my washroom...couldn't get my daddy to kill it since he was downstairs and if i yelled for him my mom, being asleep would have woken up and told me to shush. SO i had to kill it myself... =s which didn't quite work out the way i wanted it to. i got the tissue paper, wet it and smacked the spidy. now i thought it was dead, so i was =O when it fell off the tissues and onto the rim of my toilet and started to walk again (tmi? sorry!). well i had to get rid of it, so what do i do? i blow it into the bowl. and then it started "swimming" and then went into a little ball as i flushed it. then i stepped back and hyperventilated shaking like crazy with the room spinning.
not that i'm arachnophobic...maybe in a weird strange way i am tough. see i'm perfectly fine with larger spiders like taranulas (other than their many many eyes, they're pretty cute ><). i can't stand the smaller ones though. there's just something about them and being able to pop up anywhere that freaks me out. the ones that are small AND fast and/or can jump, SUPER SCARY!

For Us He Died.
=> easter is a time to reflect upon everything that God's done for us. reflect upon how much he loves us. about how he sacrificed his sinless son for us.
wait no... EVERYDAY should be that time to reflect upon how great is our God.
=> in comparison, having good friday and easter monday off is fairly miniscule. but its great to have a 4 day weekend all the same.
and smack in the middle of that weekend (or well sunday) is me getting baptized!!!
super excited but yet super nervous; theres going to be too many people looking at me while i share my testimony.

Uni Open House Summarized.
=> sooooo at the end of a busy march break and having to wake up at 8 on average, its time for my thoughts on each uni that i visited.
sat: western - amazing campus. very organized. nice rez. as "old" as the buildings seemed, it was very new looking and modern. totally spoiled my family's expectations of all unis. and as an extra plus, the rink is on campus and open to free skate monday - friday during lunchish hours. the whole gym facility was amazing, spanking new and already paid for in part with your tuition or living expenses etc.
wed: queens - yes i still love the bphe program. but here's where they get knocked down from my first choice to 4th-ish. my faculty is under construction. aka everything is being torn down and rebulit. now most of the stuff will be completed by the time i get there but the rink isn't done until 2012...which is just a tad bit far away. and also, the rez washrooms are =s
thrus: UT - it's huge! luckily my program is a fairly good size with 140 people, but there still might be classes that are located at the other side of downtown. ut's program is combined of kin and phe but put under bphe. so the good thing about that is in case m.ot doesn't work out i can simply take b.ed and go teach gym or work in something gym related. and i get to just fool around and have fun in different sports for 1/2 the day, eg. fencing, gymnastics, dance etc. rez was ok, not as nice as western's but livable all the same. the rooms seemed bigger actually...
sat: mcmaster - like western, the campus had a nice feel to it. buildings were up to date, nice and modern. rez was by far the best! totally fell in love mary keyes and les prince. the walls in mary keyes were so colourful too!!!! even the most ancient rez was nice, and that was building in the late 1800s or something. the kin program, as amazing as we've been advised they were, the competition is to the max and cut off is 87...havn't gotten that high in 2 years.
see now if i could make my own little uni, i would take the rez of mac, program of UT / queens, and campus & facilities of western. and a cut off avg of 80 so its at least achievable.

sat: western - amazing campus. very organized. nice rez. as "old" as the buildings seemed, it was very new looking and modern. totally spoiled my family's expectations of all unis. and as an extra plus, the rink is on campus and open to free skate monday - friday during lunchish hours. the whole gym facility was amazing, spanking new and already paid for in part with your tuition or living expenses etc.
wed: queens - yes i still love the bphe program. but here's where they get knocked down from my first choice to 4th-ish. my faculty is under construction. aka everything is being torn down and rebulit. now most of the stuff will be completed by the time i get there but the rink isn't done until 2012...which is just a tad bit far away. and also, the rez washrooms are =s
thrus: UT - it's huge! luckily my program is a fairly good size with 140 people, but there still might be classes that are located at the other side of downtown. ut's program is combined of kin and phe but put under bphe. so the good thing about that is in case m.ot doesn't work out i can simply take b.ed and go teach gym or work in something gym related. and i get to just fool around and have fun in different sports for 1/2 the day, eg. fencing, gymnastics, dance etc. rez was ok, not as nice as western's but livable all the same. the rooms seemed bigger actually...
sat: mcmaster - like western, the campus had a nice feel to it. buildings were up to date, nice and modern. rez was by far the best! totally fell in love mary keyes and les prince. the walls in mary keyes were so colourful too!!!! even the most ancient rez was nice, and that was building in the late 1800s or something. the kin program, as amazing as we've been advised they were, the competition is to the max and cut off is 87...havn't gotten that high in 2 years.
see now if i could make my own little uni, i would take the rez of mac, program of UT / queens, and campus & facilities of western. and a cut off avg of 80 so its at least achievable.

Knee, Room, And Everything Else.
=> Blah!! No new bloggies in a while... sorry bout that. So I guess just a few updates on what's been doing on in the life of Me.
=> Knee. Oy, trouble trouble trouble. So at first, people were wondering if maybe I tore a tissue or ligament or that it was my acl. Thank God that it wasn't. Then maybe it could have been my miniscus. It totally seemed like it, but again thank God that it wasn't. After a whole lotta glabalaga (aka 2 x rays, ultra sound, hospital visits, specialist, mri scan, & health card malfunction) it turns out that it was just tendonitis. A very painful case of tendonitis too I might add. The pros are thinking that since I already have osgood schlatters disease on my right knee, tennis just put too much strain on it.
Once I got an accurate diagnosis from the MRI scan, I saw a physiotherapist which didn't help so I went to go see a sports medicine guy/ chiropractor. And after seeing that clinic for 3 months, it's over 90% better. There's still pain when I stand too long and not moving, or if I'm walking for too long, and feels loose if I don't have a strap on or a tensor..or going up too many steps of stairs, can only go up around 1/2 of the flight at home. Now that I can walk relatively well though, I'm going to be seeing my mom's physio (which she says is amazing) which I have an appt booked tomorrow...or pretty much later on today.
=> ooo I just had to tell my health card story. So i go to get my mri done, the reception scans my card and then tells me, "you're card's been cancelled, have you moved lately?" "nope..." "have you gotten a letter saying that they're going to be cancelling your card? cause i know they're doing that to phase out the old card." "nope." "hm... ok that's weird. so i guess leave your credit card number with us for now and get your health card within 5 work days or else we'll have to charge you or you can book another appt." "um...well i don't want to book another appt so i guess i'll leave the number."
So then come monday i go get my new health card...omg it was such a long line up *sigh* but at least it eventually got done. At the counter, we asked the guy what was up with my card. He checked the computer and told us that he has no clue since it was not shown that my card was scheduled to get cancelled or anything. "Oh ok then..." So now both me and my daddy have the new health cards. =)
=> Reno update. Oh golly this post will be long. Washroom is pretty much done, just need to fill in the sparklies on the bubbles one of these days, then PICTURE POSTING!!! As for my room, i'm done painting it, with designs and all that. Don't know if i'll post pics of that yet since my dad still has to finish installing the hardwood and I need to move back in to get the full feeling of the room. But omg the "mural" is sooooo pretty, took me forever but it's sooooo pretty.
=> So um, now for the everything else, and actually why i'm posting agan. I just had to get this out somehow. Well I'm getting baptised this Easter and part of it is writing out our testimony. Now see, my testimony revolves quite alot around one of my skating coaches who past away and caused me a whole lot of heartache, reality check, and fear.
It's almost been four years now and I'm pretty good with the fact after now. It's just that everytime when i have to write out the story and everything i felt the one or so years after he died i end up reminiscing about the last time i saw him, his last intructions to me. Except this time, i don't want to reminisce in fear that it will affect my ability at co-op and school which is why percisely why i decided to post this little tidbit and release the inhibitions into cyberworld. It'll get more space to run around instead of being confound to the quarters of my own feeble mind.
Hm...maybe i'll post a briefed version of my testimony one day...Easter perhaps?
