This past week has really become crazy, when I am committed to something or have some sort of responsibility I will sacrifice sleep, food, sanity in order to get the job done. Good and bad things come from this.
But doing things for grad night (for LCCF) was worth it. I really am thankful for the friends I've made through the fellowship. I'm becoming more comfortable with the group and spending more time with them. It's like having a really big asian family as Laurier, haha it's fun. I love our year, I can't help it haha! We've become more close, especially through this video we made for the grads (I'll upload it on youtube or facebook) and yeah we're all pretty different but still worked together to get it done. holla first years !
These past few weeks I've found myself somewhat... getting lost? Or just losing touch with what who I thought I was, or what I was all about. I really miss my friends (Sarah, Aug, Albert, John, Hannah lives with me but I'll miss her too) and can't wait for California. I've realized our group is really close but I know I am a bit distant from everyone throughout the year. I don't really know how to change that or maybe its just the way things are. Regardless, I love them, miss them and can't wait to see them in a few weeks right before I leave for Korea.
I've also found it hard to balance my life. My priorities are a bit jumbled up these days and I'm hoping to sort them out soon... (meaning like this week!) just to be a better friend, better daughter, better sister ... better person. I get caught up easily, and neglect those who really care for me and love me.
There's a couple of days until lent is over. Fasting meat and coffee and dramas - I admit, it's been hard, but I still couldn't give up things like gchat/facebook (i don't think i spend too much time on them these days so i think its okay) but anyway, I've just been wanting to think about the cross these next few days. Was it enough? Yes, it was... Misty Edwards said something like, "I just press on. Say no to shame. Say no to fear." Not the exact quote, but it's been helping me not to dwell on my mistakes, and to just press on, move on ...
Overall, I'm happy and am hoping I'll survive these next few weeks.
April 25th seems far away. But first year of university is almost over.
I was talking with some of the girls from fellowship. First year: exceeded my expectations, because I didn't know what to expect. But I'm definitely happy with my first year, it was a good year... couldn't have asked for more.
