i just schooled roymund in nba live 3 games in a row.
i think he was getting really, really frustrated.

all the parker guys from my sg say the funniest things.

JOY
i had the privilege of seeing of seeing roymund do a punishment and then some. first he had to do push-ups which he couldnt do. since he couldnt do them he had to do sit-ups. he cant do sit-ups so he tried to do 20 pull-ups but he couldnt do those either. so then roymund said he would do 10 chinese get-ups. it was hilarious watching him mess up and fall the first few times. then he got like the 4th and 5th one down. thats when he started to break dance after he did the get-ups. it was a great sight to see. i think ive enjoyed this punishment the most out of all of em.

this past night we played kickball, 4 square, and handball which all turned out to be fun. it felt like recess all over again. one time huge was trying to catch a ball when a football hit him in the boob. it ended up scraping his tit or something and he was in pain. later while taryn was playing handball she randomly shrieked cuz she almost tripped but the ball wasnt even in play.

PRAYER

chiang bangs reaction upon finding out that andy wanted a minicooper:
preppykc: dang, minicoooper? does this guy wanna be the pimp of Los Angeles

PRAYER
that all who are worrying bout their future career will realize this:
"Much confusion in the Christian life comes from ignoring the simple truth that God is far more interested in building your character than he is anything else. We worry when God seems silent on specific issues such as "What career should i choose?" The truth is, there are many different careers that could be in God's will for your life. What God cares about most is that whatever you do, you do in a Christlike manner. God is far more interested in what you are than in what you do."

PRAYER
i saw the construction on sproul for the first time today.

"Humility is not thinking less of youself; it is thinking of yourself less."
"In resolving conflict, how you say it is as important as what you say."

JOY

sat went to bible quiz and the girls did really well, im proud of em.
there was this one asian kid from another church who got really pumped up when he or his partner answered a question right. his expressions were hilarious.

PRAYER
i guess this is answered prayer. ive been sleeping much earlier these past few nights: 1:30, 2:00, 2:30. but i guess its cuz ive been sick and im tired from the long days. i think sleeping late makes me much more vulnerable to getting sick.

THANKS
for this reminder:
"relationships, not achievements or the acquisition of things, are what matters most in life. so why do we allow our relationships to get the short end of the stick? when our schedules become overloaded, we start skimming relationally, cutting back on giving the time, energy, and attention that loving relationships require. what's most important to God is displaced by what's urgent.
busyness is a great enemy of relationships. we become preoccupied with making a living, doing our work, paying bills, and accomplishing goals as if these tasks are the point of life. they are not. the point of life is learning to love - God and people." rick warren, PDL
