so i've been lazy...and the longer i put off posting, the harder it is to coz too much has gone on and i don't know how to compress them or summarize them...and eventually i just don't. haha oh well but here's a feeble attempt.a summary of significant events:retreat was great! the messages were exactly what i needed to hear, worship was so refreashing after not having been to church in over a month while being away, and catching up with everyone was fantastic. more than that, it was nice getting to know new people too. got a chance to talk to Darcy more, to hear more about Lily's ministry in Central ASia, to goof around with Hanah and Val, to get to know some of the young adults...and of course to hang out with some of my favourite pple. : )hmmm what else. oh, i'm in the midst of deciding which job to take. thought for awhile that i was definitely going to take my first offer...then something else came along and i'm much swayed. will have to make my decision by tmr and boy it's kinda hard. ok not really coz i've had so much help and insight from the people i've spoken to and well...i'm more inclined towards one than the other...it's just strange how it's all turning out i suppose. it feels like i'm defying everything i've been told the last 4 years in school and doing what we were told not to - go into macro level work without direct prac experience. but then again, i've been encouraged to by people who know me, who have a wealth of experience, and who i really respect. i think what's weirdest about this entire episode is how i feel like i'm being stalked for my answer. as flattering as it is, i'm fighting from letting it get to me..coz most importantly, is this where God wants me? i'm excited and afraid of what's coming my way all at once...ah, the other interesting thing that's happened is that what i thought is/was a rather inconsequential relization from being away has turned out to be more significant and meaningful than i thought it'd be. i guess it's how i'll internalize it that matters now. anyway vera dear, thanks for telling me that it mattered to u. : ) oh, and i've been spending a lot of time with my parents to make up for all the time i was away and in anticipation of having less time with them once work starts...it's been great and i oh i really don't wanna start work....i'm missing the student life already! haha so i digress.ohoh! i'm gonna attempt to semi re-do my room. getting rid of my piano which has been untouched for a long while now to make space for more wardrobe space..gonna repaint my room too and so i figured that while i was at it, i might as well do a little more (if i get the inspiration to) to tweak my room a little. kinda like a synchronized transition from student to working life i guess.yup so that's about it i guess...other than that, it's back to meeting up with as many pple as i can in the little time i have left while saving time and space to be alone. haha what a delicate balance...ok for now, it's bed time...looong day ahead tmr..but i look forward to it. i sure hope i can say that when i start work!! haha
