i've been running around all throughout this past month between windsor/london/toronto. i'm lookin forward to staying in one place for awhile.. although it's been fun.. i think it's finally time to settle down again. and thank God for that! i really dont enjoy travelling that much...

what else to look fwd to this summer? a wedding, joint mission conference, acf camping, more trips to TO and london, ppl coming to WINDSOR to visit?! haha yeeeaa.. and of course...more TENNIS!!

i've committed to teaching sunday school at my church for the summer.. that means i dont have as much freedom to be gone on weekends. but i'm actually looking fwd to doing it now.. as opposed to b4 when i felt obligated to do it. kind of outta practice tho.. so i'm a little nervous. but i pray and trust that the Lord will use me in this ministry.. just need to be willing and open to what He has in store! pray for me!!

so tomorrow's gonna be a big day of resume handing out.. need to get down to it now. may is already over and only 3 months left!! geez time is flying so fast i can't even keep up with it!

PS. thanks again dave for that great response to the salvation question :)

CC was a really great experience. altho i'm sorry that i missed out by not going to my church retreat because i heard it was really good.. i'm glad that i opted to try something new this year. meeting new ppl and getting to know ppl that u already knew a little better is always a great thing. western was one of the smaller universities there.. but i kinda liked it that way. my small group was really cool.. i think we all got along really well and it was pretty easy to talk to them about stuff. what did i take away from this conference? a renewed sense of commitment and excitement :D


is it possible to lose your salvation?

4It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, 5who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, 6if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace.
Hebrews 6:4-6


then do we question if the person was really saved in the first place? i dunno what the author means by "enlightened" or "tasted the heavenly gift" etc.. does he actually mean salvation?

what is it about packing that makes me hate it so much??? gotta pack again for CC and london next week.. *SIGH* i dont wanna do iiiiiiiit. maybe it's cuz i like staying in one place. moving around is just not for me. altho i have to do it. i tend to get really comfortable where i am and not wanna leave.. maybe it's just laziness haha...

i've played tennis 3 days in a row now.. so much physical activity.. i'm not used to it lol. who knew tennis was so fun tho? taking a break today.. not sure when i can go next but i hope this tennis fad lasts for awhile!

i saw a bunch of quizzes that my friend christine did on her page so i decided to do a few that i thought were interesting...





You Are 21 Years Old



21





Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.


pretty accurate.. since i'm turning 21 this year. eeekk. *shudder*





You Are 35% Normal

(Occasionally Normal)









You sure do march to your own beat...

But you're so weird, people wonder if it's a beat at all

You think on a totally different wavelength

And it's often a chore to get people to understand you



i thought i was pretty normal.... i guess this quiz goes by what the quizmakers think is normal tho. *shrug*











The Keys to Your Heart



You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you.

You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you can get or discard anytime. You're feeling self centered.


i'm feeling self centred?! what is that supposed to mean? hahaha.. there is some truth to this one tho.. altho the questions for this one were really out there.

CC tomorrow!! the excitement builds.. now if only i can get myself to PACK. arrggg...

wooo i gave out 2 resumes today! finally.. it took me 2 weeks hahaha...

well i'm back in windsor now for those of u who don't know. i decided to come back here for the summer. i figured.. everyone gets to go home so why shouldn't i? (and yes bri.. WINDSOR is my home too!) it's been cool being back. things are a little different.. but i'm hoping i'll get back into the swing of things soon.

i think it's even easier to be lazy here tho.. my sibs have satellite here so the tv is so inviting... and friends is on like every half hour after a certain time in the afternoon! actually i haven't been watching that much tv.. i dunno where the time goes tho. i've already been back for 4 days.. and i finished season 3 of scrubs already too! it took me longer than i thought..lol.

going to CC a week from today. so i'll finally get to see what it's all about. i'm missing my own church retreat for it tho. ahhh it was so hard to decide. but i think CC will be good. now.. just gotta figure out a way there...

i hope everyone is having a safe and productive summer so far! missin u guys :)
