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

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?

PRAYER
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
God's image was pretty crazy. some of those lil kids had some moves and "p diddy" made me crack up. just wish he did the rap in joyful joyful.

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
for the surgery and a quick recovery.

JOY

JOY
graduations are finally over. now i need to just focus on going to my own.

from my friends xanga:
i'm gonna have to say that i agree with billy's friend, cuz aim opened the doors that allowed me to date my two ex-girlfriends.
but since they're EX-girlfriends, i don't really know if aim was helpful in the long run. hahah.
