i had the privilege of having tim oh in my group. he told a countless # of jokes but most of em were retarded. one of them involved the word "shut up" and after he said it jenn had a shocked/angry look on her face which huge and i got to enjoy. later he told a knock knock joke in which he had julie start off w/ "knock knock" and he responded "whos there" and then immediately started cracking up like crazy. i dunno y he thought that it was so hilarious but his reaction made me laugh.

after the pizza cookoff i got to enjoy whooping roach and tim in foosball w/ kristy as my partner. we rocked them 7-1 games. afterwards tim and i had some one on one action. he beat me like the first 3 times but finally i came back to win some crucial games. ah, the good old days in the dorms.

im not sure what to list this under but something amazing happened at 4:30pm today (technically yesterday). andy was sitting on the couch reading stuff for school. pablo was on the futon going over Bible study materials. i was heading out to class. we were all being productive and doing things that are expected of normal students. i thought it was a phenomenon. cant remember the last time where we all were in the apt and not at least one of us was watching tv, playing video games, or on the computer. this is either answered prayer or we need to pray cuz something is wrong w/ us.

PRAYER
sigh, again sleeping late. but i slept at like 1 yesterday which was very good.
my prayers go out to my lil flock and for the things they shared about.

JOY
lil david han told me that he needed to go to the bathroom during awana. he asked me if i could take him so of course i did. thot he was just gonna take a whiz while i just stood there but turns out he needed to take a poopoo. so i was just chillin in the stall w/ him while he took care of his business. i felt kinda awkward but it was pretty funny. he farted some too which was hilarious. when he was all done i said, "dont forget to wipe." then he said, "ok, i bend over." i was like dangit, too bad he dunno how to wipe his own ddongamonk. so i start wiping his butt and then he says, "hey, theres an ant." while he was bent over his face was pointed close to the ground and he spotted an ant and then he started moving. i was like whoah, ya, an ant. hold still so i dont get your ddong on my hand. but ya, it was a fun experience.

i always think, "ill do well NEXT semester" but it never starts NOW. i need to be obedient now.

quote by scott song:
"some girls ARE cute, so when they act cute, it accentuates their cuteness.

his mouth."
