It's been a crazy couple of weeks. Chris and I finally moved in to our apartment. We have mostly everything moved in except appliances. School is about to start. I have to buy a whole lot of art supplies to purchase and it kind of sucks. I'm taking hebrew 370 this quarter. It's a study of the Hebrew Bible..should be interesting.

Last Sunday, the college group leaders met. It was a good meeting with a lot of planning. This is going to be an interesting year. With winter retreat coming up, I feel like I'm going to be very very very busy quarter. It's a good thing I didn't continue my assistant photo editor job. I'm really excited for the church. It's changing and maturing and growing.

Winter Retreat is coming up and right now, the worship teams are coming together. We just had our a nice planning meeting last week. and I'm in the proccess of choosing songs for this winter. It's really exciting.

Well, that's about it.

Woke up and went with my brother to go to worship practice, came home and celebrated my b-day with my family. They bought me a ichiban cake! It was good! Then, I went and took a nap for like 3 hours. Anna, Jacqueline, and Daniel came over and woke me up to borrow a bike. Then I got ready for dinner!

Dinner was at J Alexander's which was really good. I got prime rib which was delicious. Too top it off, our waitress was really cool and awesome. I got a free drink. Deren paid for my dinner!



After that we went back to Chris' house and watched the USC vs. OSU game. Although they lost, it was ok, I had a fun time. Gifts this year was really random, like a popcorn maker?! haha, it's really really random. I didn't really expect much, it was more of enjoying the company of my good friends like Chris, Norman, Shing, Josh, Jacqueline, Anna. My inner core group of friends. One last get together before we all have school. It was good. And also this was my last time hanging out with Anna for a couple of months.

Sunday was wake up early to get to church to prepare for Sunday worship. We tried our new set which was, Deren and I on acoustic guitars, Bernard on electric, Esther on piano, and Elean on Vox. It was rather successful. I enjoyed worship a lot. Went to lunch at Olive Garden with Shing, Johnny, Max and Chris. It was good just hanging with the guys, no girls. Sunday night was tennis at OSU. I'm really starting to get the hang of it. It's starting to be fun.

Now, I'm just enjoying a sandwich and a rolling rock, relishing the fact that I don't have school tomorrow. Life is good. I'll start blogging more regularly once school starts.

dangit...I hate cold calling..it makes me look so desperate.

So I finally got my phone from ebay. It took awhile to get here, but it's working and I'm happy with it. Since I got it, I decided to do a little product shot with it...so here it is. First time doing it...I think I did ok, but there are a lot of things I need to improve on though.
