Some things that stuck out to me (as a nono) these weeks is that Ryan and I have been playing counter-strike and starcraft these past two-three weeks…. xO Not that we play too too much, x) (tho more than enough =.=) but there are definitely better ways to hang out.. 2, I’ve been eating lots of junk food along with healthy food. and 3, I’ve been sleeping pretty late. SLEEP IS IMPORTANT. adsasdghkasdf D:
Then on friday, I walked over to in-n-out with Ryan, and then I headed over to Alvin’s @ mesa. um, after watching this creepy movie about an obsessive roommate? :T (I think it was called The Roommate..) and then doing some programming work with them, I went home with Alvin and his bro, Aaron.
Saturday I went to the Rowland field show! x) I thought it was okay; better than last year at that moment. I got to see lots of underclassmen^^ and a few graduates as well~
Today was joint service! I got the opportunity to catch up and talk with Brian :D and just talk about life. He passed the police written and physical test, and now he’s gotta go interview o: and I’m juggling and trying to get my priorities straight.
My mom bought me a lot of useful stuff and yummy food to bring to Irvine, and I really appreciate that!^^ Just it was tiring hauling it up those three flights of stairs. I have been really lazy with exercising, and to add onto that, I haven’t cut down on the calorie intake, soo I should go asap, after I finish my homework.

I’m doing it again..
I need to not only acknowledge who is important to me, but also, to reflect those feelings. I need to be more open to them, and not deny myself the opportunities to spend time with them. It would be so easy eh, to make excuses, but I won’t. Why start such a bad habit? Instead, I guess simply, I gotta be much more proactive about it.
But on the plus side, I’m glad that I don’t feel the need to try to impress others (in the worldly view) by being or having the qualities of the man to be envious of - a guy who pimps, parties, flirts, brags, and does stupid things just because he only has one life, so he shall do all he can to exalt himself and “be satisfied.” I don’t mind not being “successful” in these aspects to others, because that isn’t success. period.
It’s pretty sad seeing and knowing people as targets of gossip, especially when you know the ones talking probably say the same about you. Seeing people steal, and being okay with it, or hearing someone bragging to someone about how their friend stole them a meal ticket for them at the band tournament, and then hearing the same people gossip about others, about who was mean, weird, or nice to them; it’s pretty pitiful. :T Their actions and words just don’t seem trustworthy.
Worldviews.. Definitely, definitely, really important. I need to remind myself what my main priorities are. One thing I know I can do, is just be more reflective of Christ’s love. I mean from there, I’m certain humility, fun, and discernment will come along with it!
mm, I need to remember that sometimes those who are easiest to be friends with may not the best people to invest in. I also need to remember not to settle with just the easy, just because it was easy. I’ll definitely not regret it 5, 10 years later if I am real picky with who I want as good friends these next years! (there are definitely some indispensable qualities to look for in friends)
I am a bit frustrated, since I hope to meet same aged people like minded and have the same priorities and outlook, so we’d be mutually encouraged and challenged by one another, but after talking with Brian today, I guess age starts to matter less and less!^^
In addition, I need to remind myself that I shouldn’t just rely on my own strength, especially since I have others who I can talk to and a God who’s always good, and will lend me his aid.
