JOY
went to 2 weddings this weekend. finally my 32-year-old cousin has gotten married. shes been due to hitch for a while and now im happy for her. i was technically one of her gift registry ppl but they had enuf help so i didnt have to do much. later on i caught her garder and found $100 in it. and then my 2 friends from yn, bert and stacy, got married as well. i got to participate in this one too but as an usher. im happy for this couple as well, think theyve been dating for like 7 years or so. the weddings were different but both were nice in their own ways. i think the slide show is an important aspect of weddings and both were fun to watch.

PRAYER
that both couples would draw closer to one another as they grow closer to God.

THANKS
for the gift cards from the weddings.

JOY
keembob: selfish girls
keembob: hate them!

JOY
grimface1: what's the prize
grimface1: incentive
grimface1: to win this mofo
grimface1: a trophy?
bku82: ya, thats the only incentive that i can think of
bku82: maybe ill add like some sort of gift card?
grimface1: i say throw in a date with kwan
grimface1: a dinner at the least
bku82: hahahha
grimface1: tell him it's for compassion
grimface1: spiritual gifts
grimface1: he needs to use it for the church

JOY
went another 2 rounds of minigolf today. played pretty well overall. 1st round kwan edged me out by like 2 strokes. then we tied in the 2nd round. later he edged me out by 2 chips in one of our home game. though i kept barely losing i still had a fun day.

JOY
it was nice hearing justin mcroberts play again. always has insightful stuff to say.

on the way back kwan and i were trying to figure out what to eat and so we asked kwan's girls what they wanted. they all said anything. then i asked em what they didnt want. all i got was silence. 10 secs later i hear "KFC. no KFC." then right away the others said, "no noodles", "no italian", "no la burrita", "no mexican." so me and kwan think a lil and decide on in-n-out since it was on the way home and no one said "no burgers." so we ask if in-n-out is ok w/ everyone and they respond w/ a few unenthusiastic unwilling "okay" s. then 10 secs later one of the girl asks "is that the only option?" kwan says that theres plenty of options and the girl says "ok, lets go w/ that." kwan asks "in-n-out?" and girl says "options." kwan names like a dozen places to eat but got no positive responses. finally i asked if they wanted pho and i got 4 enthusiastic responses. why is it that girls dont initally say whats on their minds?

last night at PPP i started up a random game which involved flicking each others foreheads. almost everytime i suggest punishments for games i end up losing. someway, somehow it always comes to bite me in the ddongamonk and last night was no different. i ended up taking the most forehead flicks. it was pretty entertaining, im sure much more entertaining for everyone else than me. game was fun til we made up too many rules which killed the game but was fun while it lasted.

PRAY
i think im too competitive. i thought that this part of me had died down in the past 2 yrs of college but i realized that its back after playing mario party. i was thoroughly pummelled twice and the whole time i was very frustrated. its not that i love winning, i could almost care less cept that i HATE losing. i need to go on fear factor, i think i would have a really good shot at winning. need my shoulder to heal faster.

we need to live everyday like the girl JM talked about, make everything count for something.

THANKS
for doing something to do other than HM the past 2 nights.

 

JOY
yesterday went to zachary's for lunch. the waiter was serving the slices and asked janet what kinda pizza she wanted:

went miniture golfing and bowling this past weekend. it was nice doing something "active" for a change. cant believe that these are the 2 most active things that ive done in the past 6 weeks.

JOY
ester: downeys not the boonies.. :(

i dunno y this made me laugh so much.

PRAYER
"unless i'm badly mistaken, one of the main reasons so many of God's children don't have a significant prayer life is not so much that we don't want to, but that we don't plan to. if you want to take a four-week vacation, you don't just get up one summer morning and say, "hey, let's go today!" you won't have anything ready. you won't know where to go. nothing has been planned. but that is how many of us treat prayer. we get up day after day and realize that significant times of prayer should be a part of our life, but nothing's ever ready. we don't know where to go. nothing has been planned. no time. no place. no procedure. and we all know that the opposite of planning is not a wonderful flow of deep, spontaneous experiences in prayer. the opposite of planning is the rut. if you don't plan a vacation you will probably stay home and watch TV. the natural, unplanned flow of spiritual life sinks to the lowest ebb of vitality. there is a race to be run and a fight to be fought. if you want renewal in your life of prayer you must plan to see it." -piper quoted from spiritual disciplines for the christian life

JOY
PU haha 143: oh..:-(...but u can drive foine?

i went to the dentist yesterday because part of my tooth chipped off while i was eating. i think it was due to a cavity. i go and find out that im right and that i have not just 1 cavity but 7. i need 7 fillings. i also need to pull out my top wisdom teeth. they told me before that i dont need em taken out but now the dentist is saying that theyre moving down and need to be pulled out. im so sad that my teeth are all jacked up now. my ankles are giving out, my shoulder is popping out, and now my teeth are falling out. im 22 and my body is falling apart!

JOY

PRAYER
im dang sad. bku9 is gone. bku9 was originally created on aol and i finally cancelled it just recently. i feel like a part of me has died. this sounds ridiculous but im just being honest. and i lost my whole buddy list too. it was also a struggle to make a new sn. i was surprised that plain old 'billyku' was taken. so what i came up w/ is bku82. man, this 82 crap sucks.

PRAYER

JOY

JOY
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
for afghanistan and the yn summer team.

JOY
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.

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

PRAYER
its hard to believe but i think i become a worse student every semester. as a testament to this theory i have yet to turn in my take-home midterm which was due 2 weeks ago. im on pace to barely pass my two classes. i need to change, i need motivation.

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.

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.

"thanksgiving is always a blessing. all my cousins, aunts, uncles, and nephew and niece got to spend thanksgiving together. it's always a riot with the cousins. eunice sang bye bye bye and danced! always a delight to see eunice rock the mic and the dance floor. billy and jack continued the tradition of the wish bone. billy won..hopefull he wished for a girlfriend! lol"

from my other cousin's xanga:
"i wanna watch love actually, but..... i have no chic to go watch it with, and none of the guys wanna watch it, plus it'll be way gay if just guys watched that movie.

25 days till christmas and i dont' have the Christmas spirit yet... year after year its been fading away. I think a temp. girlfriend would solve that problem. soooooooo ladiees.. call me, we'll get some hot cocoa, take snowboarding trips during the weekend, go ice skating, watch movies, go bowling, go fishing, go cruisin.... but only till NEW YEARS... after that we're officially broken up. Schools gonna start and ur just gonna get in my way of studying... SO CALL ME"


PRAYER
for my mangled body.

PRAYER
i need to be thankful despite my physical circumstances.
and despite my paper and final.

on another note, this is what i wrote in my soc notes during lecture on 4/14/03:
"just got to class. didnt do paper, turned in same crap. imma try to be a better student.
i always think, "ill do well NEXT semester" but it never starts NOW. i need to be obedient now.
that means going to class on time, taking notes, doing the reading, studying ahead of time, doing papers early."

i wonder if ill ever change. hopefully others will learn not to follow in my footsteps.

JOY

quote by scott song:
"some girls ARE cute, so when they act cute, it accentuates their cuteness.
but some girls are definitely NOT cute, so when they try to act cute, it just emphasizes how NOT CUTE they are.
watching a beastly girl try to act cute is like watching chris farley in a pink tu-tu trying to act all bashful and shy with his pinky in
his mouth."

THANKS
for a quick drive w/out a ticket.
